@BlueRedPurpleGreen: has added content about American gang incidents to this article. The first source, tapiz.co.il mentions an Asian street gang called the King Cobra Boys in California in 2000. The other source, usmilitary.about.com, mentions a Marine stationed in California who was a King Cobra member in 2006. Neither mention any New Zealand connection. I think it is much more likely that this is an unrelated US gang with a similar name, and the content is not relevant in this article.-gadfium05:54, 21 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Gadfium: You may be right, but most gang activity sources, won't link up their origin or where the gang was founded. I think it's related because it's the same name and gang members have the same tattoos. It may be that the King Cobras have some members in the United States, and not just in New Zealand. ---- BlueRedPurpleGreen (talk)
