What is "Prayer of the Rollerboys"?
Who are The Rollerboys?
Lead by Gary Lee, the Rollerboys manufacture and distribute an inhaled drug called Myst. Besides making the user high it has one planned side effect, which is to make the user sterile. The overall plan is to eliminate the "weak" elements of society so that the Rollerboys and those of superior makeup can take over. The time when that happens is referred to "The Day of the Rope", meaning "if you give them enough rope, they will hang themselves." The Rollerboys are a force to recon with in the financial world as well. It seems Gary Lee is a financial genius and is intent on taking America back. Under his umbrella the Rollerboys own a freight yard, they are in a joint venture with a power plant, have many business ventures (protection racket), real estate (Myst houses) and other mundane investments. The Myst business is good, and the Rollerboys have the monopoly. Gary Lee - Leader and founder of the rollerboys "We are the new generation, we are the remedy" - Gary Lee

Gang Leader Rollerboy Role
Most Rollerboys travel together in groups of 5 or more and where possible skate in a "V" formation. If a fight ensues they swarm around their
opponents hitting their opponents with various melee weapons including chains, crowbars, bats, and knives. Myst: "A Little bit of white, a little bit of yellow and a little bit of blue" - Bango An inhaled drug that causes the user to be at ease, making him content to pass the day away in a stupor. It was originally designed by the Chinese government as a way to pacify its masses. Gary Lee has added a new ingredient to the mix which causes the side effect mentioned previously, it causes the user to become sterile in a short period of time. The drug is taken via an inhaling mask and canister, mostly because they are cheap to come by.
Other
Factions: B-13ers - a gang directly opposed to Gary Lee's way of thinking, they are also born out of the squalor in the bankrupt Los Angeles, but are composed of Hispanics & Blacks (as well as some whites). This gang operates as most other gangs, dealing drugs, B&E, muggings, etc. they are identified by the insignia on the back of their jackets, a red box boarder around a skull wearing a beret with B-13 printed on the front.

Released in 1991, Prayer of the Rollerboys is a
film about your typical rollerblading, trench-coat
wearing, drug
manufacturing & dealing, para-military, white supremacist teenagers who
are bent on
world domination! The movie takes place in the dark future after "the
great crash" where the
homeless are subjected to camps, the economy is in the crapper, and Japan
is dismantling various pieces of Americana and having it shipped overseas,
news reports indicate they have reconstructed Harvard University, the last
of the Ivy League schools over in Hiroshima, Japan. 
"If
you are such a good skater, why aren't you a rollerboy" - Casey
Gary
Lee was raised in a homeless camp, which is where he began his recruitment
of the Rollerboys. He targets white males between the ages of 10 and 21
promising them a new family and being that his audience are children stuck
in homeless camps without parents it is an easy sell. He Talks about
"the day of the rope" and how "alien races foreclosed"
on the nation. 
Gang Rank 
Typical RollerBoy:
The Drug is produced in
Myst houses. The police cannot gather any proof of their existence because
the drugs and manufacturing apparatus' are flushed with acid. Gary Lee has
developed a new prototype Myst house however that is mobile, one man per
shift, 3 shifts a day, 7 days a week, if successful, he will have 20 more
produced just like it. the Myst dealers come to the "kitchen"
drop off the cash from Myst sales and pick up a new supply. most of the
Rollerboys Myst dealers are children between the ages of 10-15.
