I made a similar thread earlier but I can't remember where it was but oh well...

two questions,

1) Why do they keep reffering to them as "Russian-Armenian"? If they're from Russia, I'd get it.. but I have a feeling this is just more than annoying habit of people grouping us in with Russians (one of the reasons I'm growing more and more annoyed with Russians in general)

and 2) Why would any Armenian hire two lobis to go kill another Armenian? That's sad.

..

Oh, and Armenians should not be involved in organized crime, that really sucks.

I say let the truth be told.

By Russian-Armenians, the reporter means the eastern armos. (This just shows how little they know about our culture. Excuse them, they're ignorant.)

[hyebruin]

the answer to your first question is obvious! just look at the pattern of crime and those involved!

nothing wrong with a little organized crime as long as it doesnt get out of hand.

yes, yes...and another yes for your first reason. I'm tired of people thinkin Armenians are Russian or in some way related. Its annyoning me now.


There are way more latin, black and even white gangs then Armenian in LA, the bay area, whole Cali. This won't damage anyones reputation.

The groups are fueled by lucrative white collar frauds -- including credit card, immigration, auto insurance, cigarette tax evasion, identity theft, welfare and health care.

70 plus years of Socialist bliss in the Soviet Union, everyone learned how to scam the system. That is part of the reason why you have many Armenians, for the most part Hayastansi or Russian Armenians, trying to screw the system. They learned this behavior living under one of the biggest welfare States known to man. America is no Soviet Union, but it is socialistic and welfarism runs rampant and Armenians find the similarities in the systems, hence why they will exploit. This is part of the problem with the welfare State.

And yes, these morons are giving us a bad name.

I would expect you to be someone to say that. After all, you are an "uglavik" and of the rabies persuasion. Honesty and integrity are anathema to you and your rabies uglavik buddies.

Have you guys noticed that if a white dude makes the paper for doing something stupid, none of the white dudes ask if that's giving them a bad rep? Because it's not.

Those stupid armos that do xxxx don't have any bearing on our culture. They're just giving themselves a bad rep. So screw em. And if people judge the armos based on overly exaggerated crap they read in the paper, then screw them as well.

Define "uglavik" please.
