Swifty Blue discussed the violent repercussions following the release of the 1992 gangster film "American Me." The movie portrayed the Mexican Mafia’s brutal origins, including a controversial scene depicting the gang’s leader being sexually assaulted in juvenile detention. According to Vlad, this portrayal enraged members of the Mexican Mafia, who viewed it as a disrespectful lie undermining their power and honor. The outrage reportedly led to the deaths of ten people affiliated with the film’s production and consultants, showcasing the dangerous real-world consequences of depicting gang life inaccurately. Swifty Blue emphasized the deep code of loyalty and the harsh realities for those involved in such gangs, noting that certain truths are taboo within that world.
