    It’s closer to 15 minutes actually. Driven it many times...

    Essentially the same neighborhood, gangs and all. Less than 10 miles apart.

    So if an individual is from Gardena, it is acceptable for them to say they are from Compton? Can they go to Compton and say this?

    You went from 30 to 15. If @what is driving you better bring it down to 4 minutes, 52 seconds. :D

    Nah they just Bro nod at each other. :p

    Basketball wise, Artesia, Compton, Hawthorne all play each other in the club tournaments and high school tournaments. Gardena too, but they usually suck ass.

    5 mile hood radius... :D:p

    Have... Grew up in the area. Artesia was a rival. Beardless Beard dropped 26 on me.

    Renardo Sidney was the true star of the team though, as a freshman in HS while James was older. Beast...
