raskal

The Tiny Rascal Gang, also known as TRG or Rascals for short, is an Asian American (mainly ethnically Cambodian) gang based in Long Beach, California. They were founded in the 1980s as part of their cause to protect themselves from the larger, more numerous gangs in their neighborhoods. Initially, a mere cause which connected numerous youth crews and gangs across Long Beach, Santa Ana and shortly after nearby cities, they are now an established network and identity of individual "sets" or local gangs. Its members identify gray as their gang's color of distinction, a custom and practice that has waned somewhat in accordance to the police crackdowns specifically targeting gang members, but members have been seen to dress in all black with a gray rag representing their set. They have ties with the bikies and triads.
The Tiny Rascals are considered to be the largest ethnically focused Asian-American criminal organisation in United States. Although Cambodians comprise the majority of their members and are the foundation of the gang itself, most Cambodian-Americans are known to be multi-ethnic, or of mixed heritage. A large portion of whom are of mixed Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai or Austronesian ancestry, whilst in some gang sets a large portion of its membership may identify with other Asian ancestry, or of any race.
