Because they're uneducated gangbangers who have nothing better to do with their time.

 

inb4 someone misinterprets this and calls me racist

universe, there is nothing different between Michael and Franklin

 

you can talk about "sophistication" and all that, but deep down all 3 have 1 thing in common

 

 

there CRIMINALS, and CRIMINALS were going to fall in love with

This.

Green I am so proud of you. You've finally seen the light, now go green, go spread you wings and fly!

Shut your dirty hillbilly ass up, cracker. Does talking so much sh*t online really make you feel better about yourself. That's just low. I don't get how you are always so fired up about fictional characters.

 

How am I a hillbilly? Furthermore, how does voicing my opinion on a character "low"?

You shout insults then you try to plead with peace

How am I pleading with peace? I'm asking what makes him think I'm a hilbilly and why I'm being suppressed by pro-drug dealers/gangbangers like you when I try to voice opinions

Okay, so gang banging, as in rolling with a gang, not jumping balls first into an orgy, IS kinda dumb in this day and age.

 

Unless it's with a motorcycle club or mafia. (Ducks head, hides from own hypocrisy.)

 

But you say "pro-drug dealer" like it's a bad thing, so go f*ck yourself. In case you weren't aware, this is Grand Theft f*ckin' Auto, big guy. I mean, come on, haven't you ever used drugs? sh*t, even weed? I mean, you have to be one sheltered motherf*cker never to have experimented and come to the logical conclusion that drugs are good, m'kay. Noboby's asking you to tweak your face off on bath salts and wake up next to a pile of half-eaten rape victims.

 

Although come to think of it, THAT'S actually legal. Those harmless hippy drugs on the other hand? Not so much.

Grove Street is king!

Would have liked to be a Balla this time around.

I actually hoped Franklin would be with the Ballas instead. We've already been with Grove Street and honestly, I didn't like them. Probably the dumbest gang of all time. None of them were trustworthy other than Sweet.

Conclusion of this topic: universetwister has naive political ideas that he can't justify, and he hates franklin for reasons that are equally applicable to other protagonists.

 

In short: universetwister is a dumbass or a troll.

Have none of you realized that the Grape Street Crips is the real life counterpart of Grove Street in SA and the Bloods are the real life counterpart of the ballas in SA (which explains why they are rivals). They were really big in the 90's and are still big now. It's not like those gangs died. They are still going strong.

You know, we've seen him wear green and there is that one screenshot where he's shooting at Ballas but...in most of the screenshots we've seen of him, he IS wearing purple. I don't know how to explain that. Maybe he pulls a B-Dup and switches sides.

Well said Getzmunney.

 

Univers, All you seem to do on this forum is course pointless arguments about the SAME THING every time and then cant seem to understand why you get so much hate. Its so cr*p that every post about gang related stuff is just filled with too much of you....

Really old news for most if not all the street gang experts on this site. "Gangs who should be in GTA V" and "I'm pretty sure the ballas are in V" those two threads have people mentioning it a lot.

That would've been a great twist seeing the other side of the war between the two major gangs in Los Santos happy with the final results tho i guess green goes better with the money theme alien.gif

Hell no. The OP looked like he didn't know that to ask a question like that. Why wouldn't the ballad be in the game? they are very much LA.

This is very incorrect chief..Grove st in ganton based off of piru st in compton.. and the ballas sets (kilo tray and rollin heights) were based off of crip sets (eight tray and rollin 60s)

Then why did you ask the question in the first post? Hate to say it, but if you knew about the bloods and the crops, the question was self-explanatory.

I don't know why but the Grove Street gang kind of reminds me of the NWA in the 90's.

I'm pretty sure that Franklin is trying to get out of that life, the whole hood, gang signs thing. From what it seems in the Trailer, he is ashamed of that life. Notice how annoyed he looks every time somebody mentions something about the gang life. And his general response is "Yeah, whatever..."

 

I'm going to say, greenrock said it best. All 3 of our protags are criminals, they just present it in a different way. And what were you talking about saying that Franklin had the most body count compared to Trevor and Michael? Trevor is a f*cking psychotic redneck, I'm pretty sure he kills more people in a day then Franklin would in a week.

 

Lastly, we don't even know the whole storyline of the game. We don't know how it's going to go entirely, hell, for all we know, Franklin could turn out to be the worst of all 3 of them and be the biggest gangbanger ever. Who are we to judge from what little info we have? Let's just stop the arguing about it and wait until September 17th, and see how everything turns out.

He never wore a single piece of purple clothing in any of the screenshots or the trailers.
