Yeah, you could be a gang member and sell/buy drugs, murder people, make people suffer and cry, get beat up, get shot at, get killed? Go to jail for a long time where you would be raped and beat up frequently,where you would spend your years thinking about the question you asked in Yahoo.
Nothing in life is easy. It takes dedication and hard work and not be full of "BS" and excuses. I have known people that have come from very poor neighborhoods but they did NOT do or sell drugs. They were TRUE men (young men) who acted mature and correctly and attended school and graduated.
Don't blame people for YOUR decisions and actions years from now (if you are still alive). What you decide TODAY will determine your future.
You have the opportunity to stop the excuses, stay in school and go to college or a trade school and have a good and descent live or you can choose the life of a COWARD and try to take the road that will lead to your suffering the rest of your life.
The choice is YOURS!!

Doesn't really matter because legally you can't drop out of school until you 16 - in the meantime lets hope you realize and grow up there is more money to be made sell legal drugs for example than illegal ones. All the illegal drugs in the world don't equal the net stock market value of the largest drug companies like MRK or PFE.
Good Luck kid and stay in school - because a pharmacist and live better than any drug dealer looking over his shoulder next time he hears a police siren or wondering if another dealer gang leader is going to put a bullet in him!!!

Well, if this is a joke then shame, but if it isn't then here's the explanation.
A week or so ago, a girl, about 19 or 20, came to our school with the police chief. She was involved in drugs, and she, after becoming addicted to several, moved on to selling them as well. (She was African American) Anyway, during one of the drug runs, she was with her boyfriend and her boyfriend's friends. The deal went bad and the people "buying" the drugs shot at them and stole the drugs. Her boyfriend was shot THREE times. At least one of the bullets was in his head. She got him back to their car and she sat their with his head in her lap with blood gushing out until the ambulance and the police got there. Her boyfriend will go to jail for over 10 years. Since it was her first offence, she will only go for 3 years. But, in those three years she says that she plans to study and get an education and go to college once she gets out. Since she was charged with a felony, she will not get any benefits of any kind. She won't be able to get any loans for college or anything. I don't ever want to go to jail let alone have to get through life without any second chances. So, please, just don't do anything like that.

Definitely stay in school. Don't you think you'll regret killing people with drugs? Don't you think that you will regret it? Take off that botched view screen on gang life, and give it to a family member to see if they can clean it up. Really. Don't drop out. Sure, it might be exciting, but think about your core values. If you ever want a family in life, you can never settle down. You could never support them, and your relationships would be unstable. Do you value family? Do you value honor? Do you value kindness? Do you value morals? Do you? If you value anything above, you shouldn't drop out. You shouldn't become a gangster.

Now you know that everybody is going to say stay in school. That is such a stupid thought of dropping out. How is being a gang member going to help you out later in life to help you be financially stable? U need to just sit and think about that yourself because I'm pretty sure you know the answer to your own question.

In general, the people who would encourage you to get into drugs and gangs are not your friends. They will sell you out, like a bag of dope, if given the choice to plea bargain to save themselves.
Just ask my friend John, who is now paralyzed after a bullet to the spine, left dying on the ground by buddies who claimed to be his friends. Confined to a wheelchair, he can tell you from personal experience to "walk away" from drugs and crimes while you can, because he does not have that choice any more.

Dropping out of school is just the start, when circumstances of life become to much in the future,you will probably drop out agian, because it will be easier the second and third time you drop out. Finally, you will be faced with the decision of wether to face the hardships of life or dropping out. Stay in school. It could save your life.
