Well... It's like I said at one point. You go around town in the day, just lookin' like you, you'll probably be all right. For a while, anyway, until people recognize you. But say you're goin' all the way out to Santa Monica, nobody out there's gonna know or care who you are. Just don't go somewhere risky on your own. It's a huge fuckin' city, almost a state in itself, it's not like you're gonna get recognized everywhere you go by everyone.
[He shrugs. That was, of course, part of his problem - he didn't realize how much fucking risk he was in, nosing around that arcade, but he should've. Hindsight and all.
The coffee's still hot, so even though he wants it, he opts for another mini-doughnut instead, and gulps it right down. Damn things are way too easy to eat.]
Most gangs aren't lookin' to fuck up random people anyway, so if you don't look like you're on business with us an' if you don't have some kinda beef with someone, it's probably all right. Most of 'em are just out to look after themselves an' their own people. It's about protection from the cops, from the people who take advantage of everyone else.
