No matter how much the Ballas insulted me when they go tsun-tsun mode, I can still kick their butts out of my territory.
At the very beginning of the game, they'll come up to you when near and ask which gang you're from, if you don't reply back or move away from them for about 15 seconds, they'll attack you. If you did respond saying you're from the Grove, they'll attack you immediately. If they see you wearing anything green, they will also attack you on sight.
Once you finish Sweet's Drive-by part, they'll just attack you on sight no matter what, because they knew what you just did.
If you're on a mission, instead of shooting you, they'll attempt to surround you and wreck your ride with their bare hands, and on foot, a fistfight will ensue.
