terrorists at least have an agenda, however stupid and misguided.gang members are just as dangerous, just without any reason. a terrorist will give you a righteous speech about why he does what he does, a gang member will probably just laugh. nevertheless they both need to be dealt with and i don't see a reason why there should be difference in their punishment.

Maybe because some have political reasons they are fleeing ElSalvador. Maybe the MS-13 are tormenting them and they have to escape. MS-13 is one of the deadliest gangs os Central America.

When gangsters would hold up in a warehouse for an extended peroid of time they would sleep on bare mattresses on the floor. Sometimes they did this for months until the coast was clear. Either another gang was after them or the cops.

It's true, some communities run the young men out of town when they are teenagers...to keep the old lecherous man:young girl ratio manageable.\n\nIt's really sad what happens to these boys. For more information, click on: http://www.getadad.org/

believe it or not society created thoes hoodlums and bandits that we are now trying to get away from. the problem started when all these bandits and whoodlums were children if WE don't grow up our children in the right way.\nsingle parents, a child needs the guidance of both parents, or a (family) \nCondoning Disobedience, when you tell a child NOT to do something, and they say NO and keep on doing it. Let them come home at any hour. When they are ten they dress like 19, they get pregnant at 13, Stay on the block with the boys when they are suppose to be home at 7. Not doing there home work.\nwe smile as parents dont we.\nwhen they are adults they dont have to listen to reason.\nthey dont have an education Cu's you didn't care, that the got any.\n they wear what they want so they are pregnant  at 13. have to finish school, no education, and it will be acceptable to them when their children get pregnant at thirteen.\nbeing on the block there is drugs, violence, "no education so they cant get a job", they have to steal to get the bling that they crave so much.\nIf you grow your children up right they would grow right. take a hint from the rich and prestige or grand parents. a quote from the bible "spare the rod and spoil the child"  \nWE NEED TO BE BETTER PARENTS.

Because they don't have idle time on their hands.  They are always busy doing the church group things.  Which are normally not directed towards violence.  Their time and their minds are taken up with activities the church group is doing.  It's really a matter of occupation.  Fill up their lives with a group that's doing good things, with caring adults around to watch for any problems.

first of all...gangs really were created to establish territorial ownership...but then gangs started intruding on the other's turf taking their "customers" so it started to get violent...eventually they ended up just hating the other...\n\nalso gangs are not just "black people"...

Vigilante justice may be a quick solution but in the end it will do more harm than good. You will be inviting yourself and others to a world of problems and not to mention where their is one gang, others will shortly follow. Bad idea kid, if you want to help try becoming more active with your community leaders. They are the ones who are in charge of maintaining order and integrity within your community.

it is just a reflection of the communities that hip hop came from.  Most of these guys are from the streets.  And what do is always said? you can take so and so out of the ghetto, but you can never take the ghetto out of so and so.  it is ruff out there.  Police brutality.  Gang violence. drug deals gone bad.

I have studied gangs extensively and have never come across anything that has to do with a paper clip in a shoe. It appears that the teachers at your childs school have little to no common sense especially to question an eleven year old.

Yes, thugs are wanna be gangsters.None of them have any common sense if you ask me.

I think that it has to do a lot with wanting to be liked and respected. Gangstas are in style now so people will try to be gangstas, but some try to be emo, or punk or whatever they think they will be accepted as.

gang bangers?\n\nIf you report to the police, then that should keep them away for some time and some distance. But the only thing you do as your part, is to talk to your children about drugs and how it will affect their family, friends and themselves in future.
