Definition
- The Bloods are a street gang established in south Los Angeles, California, during the early 1970s and engaged in violent, varied street crime including drug trafficking, homicide, robbery, extortion, and prostitution. Their early membership can be traced to the criminal organization that later became their hated rivals, the Crips. [Source: Encyclopedia of Street Crime in America; Bloods]
