If there was a city there was a gang...even 200 yrs ago..
Even pirates was a form of gangs...they robbed the rich...and partied like crazy..the old west had their gangs...Some took from the rich and gave to the poor. Gangs today have change alot...they hurt innocent people for fun and destroy neighbor hoods and familes...When I was in high school I got set up in a fight that was back in 1988...I bet the heck out of him...then 2 days later I was asked to be in a gang..called the White Angels
I asked who they was it was a white gang that lived to fight against blacks...I turned it down I don't hate other people of color..
but I may dislike people for what they do..plus they thought I was white..while...I got Indian in me...The kid that asked me to join..he was a friend who said he was joining...he got hooked on some heavy drugs...and we quit being friends because he thought he was better......I should say the kid I beat up that day was white. I went to a 98% white country high school.. but as a kid I went to a mixed school... in the cities..every color was there and I had many friends there..But I've noticed even now the gangs are moving in the small towns trying to get more turf and increase the money flow for drugs and ect

People need to belong to some kind of family unit and
in our culture today many families are split apart by
divorce or absentee parents, especially after school
when the presence of at least one parent is vital.
Without this, kids in similar circumstances will seek
each other out and create their own families without
the restrictions they may encounter at home. The impact
on our culture is serious as crime statistics have
proven, and people now all have security alarms on
their car, houses, etc. Women carry mace when
they jog and just walking around a city is becomming
dangerous. so sad..

most young people join gangs because their inexperience & insecurities about life compel them 2 seek out others who feel th same. Maybe it has something 2 do w their upbringing. Teenagers & those in their 20s r very easily led astray, therefore it is vital that they r raised very carefully-no matter what th home-situation may be. Teach your children well. I think most gang members eventually regret that lifestyle as they grow up & realize th need 2 hav a productive & hopefully, a happy life...

i think it's rediculous that satan is so imbedded
in our youths minds that they can't see the light
they need to sentence them to attend church 2-5 yrs and participate in church programs as a part of their probation,that way we can next time lock the evil ones up and basically thow away the key and keep the streets clean

Made people a bit more afraid to go out. And to run like the wind away from groups of young people, both male and female, especially if they head in your direction.
