I thought MS actually originated here, in LA. Either way, no matter the origins, it is quite an example of transnational crime.

Re: Terrorist Network in Los-Angeles, California

Reading this story reminded me of this thread so I figured what the hey.

Quote:
OAKLAND — Police investigating the execution-style killing of a journalist raided a bakery run by a Black Muslim splinter group Friday and seized weapons they said linked the group to the crime.

Just before dawn, scores of officers in riot gear descended from heavily armed vehicles and stormed Your Black Muslim Bakery and three nearby residences. Seven people were arrested and numerous weapons were seized in the military-style operation.

It was originally organized here in Los Angeles by El Salvadorian immigrants in response to local Mexican gangs such as 18th street.
