The Spook Hunters were around until at least the mid 60's, were they not? A documentary I watched recently called Bastards of The Party talks about the Spook Hunters "being active for 20 years" after the late 1940's. Chewrockan (talk) 04:42, 24 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

This article contains disputed information, such as the claim that "Black youths had already formed their own gangs to protect themselves and their neighborhoods: The Slausons, the Businessmen, and the Gladiators were all formed before White gangs like the Spook Hunters". The claim that black gangs existed before the Spook Hunters is disputed in several sources.

Additionally, the article's sources are very old (20+ years) and no source directly addresses the topic of the article.

Finally, this source makes use of the claim that Black people commit a disproportionate amount of crime relative to their population. These statistics are often used by racist groups or individuals seeking to reinforce false notions of racial inferiority of Black people. These statistics lack context and omit crucial facts that result in the statistics appearing the way they are. 10millionfingers (talk) 21:45, 13 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
