    As a Belizean, I can say that gang violence is usually kept between themselves only. So the key is really just to stay outta of hotspots which are limited to small neighborhoods, and mind your business. Compared to our neighbors Mexico and Guatemala this is nothing. Belize is still a relatively peaceful place. Wouldn't trade it for the world.

      Belize ±30 murder / 100 000 / year.
      Chicago ±18.2 murder / 100 000 / year.
      Canada ±1.7 murder / 100 000 / year.
      Its all in your perception, you feel safe because you know your surroundings but in fact violence must be pretty high to surpass Chicago and be 15x that of Canada. Here I can walk in the worst ghetto of the province on a saturday at 11pm and i wouldnt be worried for a second. I do not know a single person who owns a firearm outside of hunters with hunting carbines.

    I have traveled to and lived in Belize. I have family there right now. The individuals that say they are gang members, in my opinion, are made to seem to be victims. When I lived there the gang members that I observed there were really involved in despicable crimes, such as the trafficking of young women and other misogynistic crimes. I really think I speak from experience when I say that these men involved in this gang activity, even in Belize, have choices. I've known very poor Belizean people who choose to walk the 'straight and narrow'. I've known personally as very close friends, individuals that literally came from the poorest of the poor and chose not to victimize their fellow neighbors. These people chose to work hard, and over time, rose to be able to productive citizens in Belize.

    This is so sad for me. I spent. year in Belize and Guatemala in the late 1970s, at the ages of 14-15, most of it in Belize. Belize City is the only city in the nation, and I only spent a little bit of time there, because even then it was not always that mellow. But the police did not carry guns, just small clubs. Outside of BC, there are few to no movie theatres, let alone TV. It was still fairly primitive but in a good way. Weed was popular, it cost twenty-five sense. Grahm of locally grown buds, and they would roll the whole thing up into joints made with brown bag paper. It was a small hustle for the most part. Cocaine was rare. Medicines containing narcotics, as well as Valium, could be purchased without a prescription, but few people did unless they actually needed it. The first place I lived in had the luxury of electricity, but you bathed with a bucket and a bowl, in shorts, by a pump at the side of the road. Tourists missed us, backpackers were rare. I loved it.
    I came back in 1993, and a lot had already changed. There were loads of tourists, as well as the US (instead of the British) military>things cost a lot more. The police seemed to be, if less eccentric, more uptight. And yes, there was evidence of Crips and Bloods. I saw their graffiti on the wall in a small remote town. I saw a young man with "Crips" tattooed on his arm. I heard another guy say "They are not Crips. They are chips. We eat them all the time." Still, it seemed like more of a young men's fad than real organized gang activity.
    But in Belize city, at least, I learned that this was not the case there. They told me that young Belizeans had gone to the USA, staying mainly in LA, and then getting deported back. They brought with them the tools of the trade. Gang affiliations and knowledge of how to REALLY deal drugs, especially cocaine, which they had learned how to convert into crack, and that doing so was basically a license to print money. And they knew how to get and use big guns. The same thing happened in El Salvador, Cambodia, and probably other places. So yea, it was not created just by one movie.
    Another factor was that the US government had shut down the direct smuggling route from Columbia to Miami. So the Columbians had learned to smuggle the drugs, mainly cocaine, overland across Central American. They paid people who helped them along the way by giving them cocaine to sell. Another way was to still use ships, but travel near the coast of Central America. And again, Belize became involved. Its coast has maze-like mangrove swamps containing small Islands and REALLY remote places. It had been used by pirates at one time, because of that. It is, in fact, named after a pirate. The word "Belize" is derived from an English pirate named "Wallace." The Columbians to would drop off in places where Belizean criminals helped them to refuel and were paid a kilo of coke for their troubles. So yea, I think that the 1980s was when Marijuana was the main drug that they used and exported. But in the 90s, coke sales dwarfed weed sales.
    Since then, from all I have heard, it has gotten much worse. I am afraid to go back and see what it has become. Although if you have the money, you can go to resorts where it is still mellow. But gone are the days when I could live there for one hundred dollars a month.

    The saddest part about the situation is that gangs are beefing over $5 bags of weed, while cannabis is now legally sold in several states in the US. What many may not know is that countries like Belize may have taken the position to criminalize cannabis because it wanted to establish and maintain positive relations with the US. Now that cannabis is commercialized and is now big business in the US, it's not so easy to turn things around and do the same in the Caribbean.

    Very misleading 10 minute documentary I'm from Belize grew up in south central I've been living here for the past 11 years. What I will say is that yes gang influence has come from the us but to be specific this all started in California (Original place were bloods and crips were formed) ...Hard working Belizean people located to places all over south La looking for a better life and their children grew up in gang ridden areas one particular area Called the Harlem crips aka rolling 30 crips section of south LA. Those same children grew up and chose gang banging and some got deported. They came down here and influenced a lot of the younger generation and Belize being such a young country(September 1981) they yearned for culture and sad enough that culture was gang culture. So to be more specific no it wasn't a damn movie called colors if anything the movie just made it worse.

    As a Belizean, please don't assume this country is a gang run country. The gangs here are almost exclusively active in certain parts of Belize city. The rest of the country is very safe, the homicide count is low overall compared to entire U.S cities like Chicago.

    The movies colours actually influenced a lot of gangs around the world. Over here in Australia, back in the 70's,80's and 90's gang culture was really big here because of that movie. People used to rep colours and neighbourghoods over here. And they would dress up like the crips, the bloods and Mexican gangsters.

      They gone need to have a "RELATIONSHIP" with JESUS NOT "RELIGION" TO GET INTO HEAVEN. Religion don't get you in heaven. Nicodemus in the BIBLE was religious it's the same today lots of people are religious "talk the talk" but don't "walk the walk" JESUS told Nicodemus he had to be BORN AGAIN(SAVED) to get into HEAVEN ST.OHN 3:3. Read about the Apostle Paul conversion by the HOLY SPIRIT on the road to Damascus this is the epitome of real christianity, the life that the disciples lived that JESUS CHRIST is talking about and unless a man is BORN AGAIN he will not enter HEAVEN and so this is why we want to teach children early the difference between religion and a true relationship with JESUS CHRIST. So this is also my witness to you "you must be BORN AGAIN(SAVED) if you want to enter HEAVEN and not HELL. PLEASE REPENT, GET SAVED AND LIVE OR ESUS CHRIST SO WNEN YOU TAKE YOUR LAST BREATH ON EARTH YOU CAN GO TO HEAVEN AND NOT HELL.

    I'm white and grew up in LA, Long Beach and San Pedro area in a mixed race family in the early 80's. I was usually the only guerro on the block but got along with everyone. I could walk from Crip to blood hoods with no worries whatsoever because everyone knew my dad was a general in MS13. The thing thats crazy about the movie "Colors" is there is a scene where they go to raid a house and a naked mexican chick walks out. I lived in the house next door and my dad worked at the shipyard that's at the bottom of the hill. Used to be called Todd's shipyard. I still remember them filming the scene. I think I was like 8 or 9 at the time. And even weirder. The scene where Killer B is fucking the chick in bed and the cops sneak and shoot him.That chick who is getting fucked married my uncle. Her name is Ara Thorpe. Small world for sure n stuff
