Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Mafia... FROM THE STREETS! Members of a youth street-gang whose behavior usually involves various criminal activities, including drug dealing, killing members of other groups, and vandalizing buildings by painting graffiti tags. May or may not commit rapes note despite the other meaning of banging gangs, as usually members of youth gangs have little trouble getting girlfriends who like the excitement and danger, some of whom are in girl gangs and killing their competitors too. Gangbangers often fill the same role as The Mafia, but fit into a different archetype. Gangbangers are usually poor criminals, disorganized mobs who patrol ghettos, selling crack and getting into fights with rival gangs just for the hell of it, whereas Mafias are intelligent, very wealthy, diplomatic, often have connections to "legitimate" authorities, and more likely to plan assassinations and ambushes than just go around getting into fights. The two can overlap, but the distinctive dress will usually make the difference clear; Mafiosi wear suits, ties, sunglasses and (if period-appropriate) fedoras, while gangbangers tend to wear bandanas (on their heads, around their faces, around their legs, in their rear pockets, or some combination of the four), baseball caps or beanies, wifebeaters (some will instead opt for hoodies, flannel shirts, American sports jerseys, or tall tees), baggy jeans with varying amounts of damage, and either Timberland boots or sneakers. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Levels of organization and professionalism can often vary, and frequently do in more realistic works; gangs often run the gamut from reasonably well-run organizations who at least make a show of protecting the neighborhood and doing what they don't trust the police and city to do (and often are pretty serious about it), all the way to Stupid Evil ragtag bands of idiots who care way more about killing people, acting on and cultivating beefs, selling hard drugs and firearms to anyone who wants them with no regard for the consequences, and committing low-yield, high-visibility crimes just because it's the thug life. The Irish Mob can be either depicted as period-appropriate gangbangers or as a kind of Mafia (though don't ever call them that), depending on time period, location, and the creator's opinions. For instance, the Irish gangs (and all the other gangs, for that matter) in Gangs of New York were the 19th-century equivalent of today's Bloods and Crips (they did wear top hats, but toppers were not considered highbrow in the 19th century and in fact carried the opposite connotation). The Irish Mob in The Departed, however, was much more Mafia-like. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Mafias will typically be composed of Italians, Jews, Russians (or some other post-Soviet Ethnic nationality), or occasionally Chinese, Japanese or British, whereas as the street gang is made up of African-Americans and Mestizo Hispanics—or more recently, poor Asian-Americans (typically Filipinos and/or Hmong)—with Unfortunate Implications all around (although American producers can be forgiven, as this is often Truth in Television for the most infamous gangs, especially since an all-white gang fitting this description would almost certainly be labeled as Skinheads or something similar instead). May occasionally overlap with Biker gangs, though they usually fall into their own category. As a nod to the lack of precision or training, they will typically use their weapons Gangsta Style. White Gangbangers is what happens when the Unfortunate Implications are avoided intentionally, though often unrealistically (unless it's a white country with white gangbangers, like Russia—the Russian ones are called gopniki, singular gopnik, by the way). Gangs separate themselves from each other with identifiers such as different coloured clothes and gang tattoos, which in extreme cases may make them a Gang of Hats. Often come from the Wrong Side of the Tracks. This is the alternative for most students in Save Our Students plots. Also a key component of the Hood Film. See The Yardies for the British equivalent and Japanese Delinquents for a loosely-equivalent Japanese version (most Japanese Delinquents are just punks with little to do with organized crime).

The STALKER series has bandits whose modus operandi has them act typically this way, though there are no instances and/or implications of raping in the games. Since the games take place in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone, these bandits are gopniki and have loose ties with The Mafiya. They do have charismatic leaders who act like stereotypical avtoritets, making them a rather moderately organized quasi-Mafiya outfit. | |

The Sharks of EarthBound are something of a Lighter and Softer version of this; they're a group of "ruffians" (comprised mostly of children, as it seems) led by Frank Fly that cause trouble in the protagonist's hometown Onett, barring the entrances to certain places and serving as the main enemies for the protagonist, Ness, to fight at the beginning of the game. | |

Saints Row is a game where you actually become a Gang Banger. The first game features a four way gang war between the protagonist Third Street Saints, the car enthusiast Westside Rollerz, the Colombian backed Los Carnales, and the Vice Kings, who run the gambling, prostitution and pornography rings. Saints Row 2 has the Third Street Saints trying to reclaim the city from three new gangs. The Brotherhood loves tattoos and monster trucks, the Sons of Samedi are run by a Haitian warlord and a voodoo priest who deal in Loa Dust and the Ronin are a Yakuza inspired gang that ride motorcycles and wield katanas. In Saints Row: The Third the Third Street Saints move to a new city run by a group called The Syndicate, which itself is composed of three groups that act like street gangs. Morning Star acts like The Mafia, the Deckers are hackers who dress like they're from TRON and the Luchadores are, well, you can probably guess. |

Lincoln Heights has a black gang and a Latino gang. There was even one episode that had a white supremacist street gang based on the Aryan Brotherhood. Most likely an honest mistake, since the Aryans are a prison gang, not a street gang, and the fact that no white surpremacist gang would EVER set up operations in a black and Latino neighborhood. | |

Static Shock is set in Dakota City, which is plagued by high crime rates and street gangs fighting turf wars against each other. One such turf war accidentally results in hundreds of youths (including juvenile delinquents) getting transformed into superhuman mutants. The titular superhero then spends most of the rest of the series fighting against gangbangers-turned-supervillains. | |

The gangs of lower Taris in Knights of the Old Republic. One was more focused on honor and gang loyalty than usual for the trope, the other was mostly a bunch of berserkers with little other ambition.

Grand Theft Auto games: CJ and his crew, as well as most of the early antagonists in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Grove Street Families is loosely based on Lime Street Pirus (a bloods offshoot that wore green), Ballaz is based on Grape Street Watts Crips (a off shoot of the crips that wore purple), Vagos on 18th Street Gang. Liberty City in Grand Theft Auto IV is occupied by a few street gangs along with larger, better-organized groups. The Red Jacks and Purple Nines in Grand Theft Auto III. Who, though being stand-ins for the Bloods and Crips, happily walked around side by side and attacked the player if he attacked one of the other gang. Franklin from Grand Theft Auto V grew up in this type of enviroment and as such is trying to not only escape from this type of lifestyle but also convince some of his gangbanger buddies to do the same with little to no luck... |

Mother: EarthBound Beginnings has the Bla-Bla Gang (or B.B. Gang) of Ellay, led by the Delinquent Teddy. They attack when spoken to in Ellay if Teddy isn't in the party, and Teddy himself is introduced barging in to ask who's been beating up the members of his gang. They're subject to some Bowdlerization in the English version and later Japanese versions: They no longer smoke cigarettes in their battle sprites. The Gang Zombie enemies in EarthBound Beginnings are the reanimated, malevolent corpses of these. Their sprite was Bowdlerised in the English version (and subsequent Japanese versions) as well, with them losing the bullet holes riddling their chests and no longer having the blood-stained shirts they have in the original Famicom version of the game. The Sharks of EarthBound are something of a Lighter and Softer version of this; they're a group of "ruffians" (comprised mostly of children, as it seems) led by Frank Fly that cause trouble in the protagonist's hometown Onett, barring the entrances to certain places and serving as the main enemies for the protagonist, Ness, to fight at the beginning of the game. |

CJ and his crew, as well as most of the early antagonists in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Grove Street Families is loosely based on Lime Street Pirus (a bloods offshoot that wore green), Ballaz is based on Grape Street Watts Crips (a off shoot of the crips that wore purple), Vagos on 18th Street Gang. | |

In the The Walking Dead episode "Vatos", at first the trope seems to be being played straight, but it turns out that they're really just acting that way to protect an old folks home whose residents were abandoned by the staff when the zombie apocalypse hit. | |

In Mass Effect, a Commander Shepard with the Earthborn background managed to get out of this life. His/her gang was apparently called the Tenth Street Reds, and at one point in the first game his/her old gang leader Finch will try to blackmail Shepard into using his/her Spectre status to get another member, charged with hate crimes, out of a turian jail. | |

Batman's Gotham is host to pretty much every variety of organized crime and in Robin most of the gangs Tim deals with are small youth gangs like the Sprang Bridge Soldiers or the Blackgaters when he's not dealing with the tangled web of intrigue the The Triads and the Tongs & the Ghost Dragons have going in Gotham's Chinatown. The Gotham borough known as the Hill is completely overrun with this type of gang rather than the more organized mafia and related groups that run the eastern section of town. | |

In Watch_Dogs, there's the Black Viceroys, who embody the look of an African American street gang but operate on a much more complex level, having transformed an abandoned set of apartment blocks into a labyrinthine base of operations.

The Water Street Boys gang and the Jade Gang in Sleeping Dogs are two such rival gangs within the Sun On Yee, although the Water Street Boys are more "purely" so. Their in-game profile states that their leader Winston Chu and his minions lack the brains to actually accomplish anything more than street-level crimes, which puts them below other Sun On Yee officers who are involved in bigger ventures | |

In Fast Five, a reasonably well armed gang try to move on Brian and Mia-and later Hobbs' team-when they enter the favela. First time, Vince (who's presumably a close associate if not in the gang himself) calls them off. Second time, Hobbs and his crew just flash their military grade fire power and the gang wisely backs off. | |

Pokémon of all games now has them. Team Skull, the villain team of Pokémon Sun and Moon are a mish-mash of this, Punk culture and Japanese Delinquents. Their gesticulation, speech patterns, and attire, as well as their more informal tone compared to previous villain groups, make them resemble American street gangs. Specifically, their tanned skin tone, as well as the fact that Guzma and Plumeria are named after plants prominent in Central and South America, gives them a resemblance to Latino street gangs from the West Coast. Unlike most villain teams of the series, they are far less ambitious in their villainy, being primarily failed trainers who commit petty crimes (usually Pokemon theft) in order to survive and are largely seen as annoyances more than anything. | |

Subverted by American Gangster. Frank Lucas' gang is well-organized, reasonably disciplined, innovative, and entirely made up of African-Americans. It's actually a minor plot point that a law enforcement agent giving Richie a hard time didn't buy his story because he refused to believe that a black organization could outperform the Italian mafia. He then called Richie a kike. | |

Half the cast of The Wire. Subverted in that the gangs are highly organized (even the lower-level guys are shown to be at least competent, if not intelligent), moderately disciplined, innovative, and tend to be run either by Machiavellian businessmen taking college courses in macroeconomics (Stringer Bell) or ruthless, power-hungry sociopaths (Marlo Stanfield). Oh, and they have white gangbangers shown in Season 2, much to the disgust of the Polish community and Nick Sobotka in particular. | |

The Jill Kismet series takes place in an Urban Fantasy Southwestern city called Santa Luz, so the gangs are mostly Latino. The barrio is noted as a place where it's not safe to be white like Jill, though the city's Weres (mostly of Native American stock) also inhabit the barrio and the gangs know better than to mess with them. In book four, Jill takes Gilberto, a gang member who lost his brother to a Dirty Cop in book three, as her apprentice. | |
