Storyline
| Plot Summary |
In Los Angeles, the summer is a time of increased violence. Tensions rise in the hot summer heat, and gang rivalries inevitably erupt. But in recent years, a small group of ex-gang members have come together on a mission. Former enemies who seek to rebuild the communities that they once helped to destroy. Along the way, these men have earned a "license to operate" based on their influence in their respective gangs. Their "LTO" status empowers them to negotiate on behalf of the community, resolving conflicts, and limiting retaliation killings. Written by Anonymous |
