Why is Bad gangs still exist?

Because their still people that join it, and that makes it go bigger and stronger. Well as it said but is kind of hard of getting rid of gangs in the community, And also known now that mafias and narcotics are going big. Big fear for some people and really dangerous for children and the people out there trying to do a change of violence in this world that we are trying to save

Gangs In The Community

Gangs In The Community

As part of team 3, I am excited to be blogging this year on the topic of co-existence.
The community i would like to look at this quarter is Gang Related.I was born and raised in Orange County, California.Back then before I moved, I can still remember at night the sound ofbullets flying around.Day time would be a little calmly, but you would still be having the worried of whois behind you or if you gonna make it to the nextday.The alleys were full of smoke i knew the strong perfume most people in the neighbor hood would be covered with....the smell of Cannabis or also known as Mariguana.As a part of a Crew(group) of people, i would mostly hang out with...i think i chose wrongthey did'nt committed any crimes, but as well as smoking pot. I know every Gang-Related has a dream, not all made it through high school, some would work some would not, but this is all to fit in the little space in the Gang. Bulling others, if you pay close attention, who is gang people picking on more?older people? is all back wards...they pick on the people they know they can take-as mening they can beat up. They pick on the younger people, to threat or bully..or sometimes to make them join the Crew. When you in a gang you don't know what to choose any more, you don't know whats right or wrong...and is better if you drop the flag before is too late, then you would'nt be able to get out, then you would become and Old English Gangster (also known as O'Gz).You get known by evey one, then you have to stay in your area, because if you step in a block that you don't belong, you may not see you family enymore..you got to be wearing sertain colors to be in sertain places. My best frinend told me how he wished he never even knew what a gang was, i still remember everything, as he passed away..murded on the streets.As i movedto the Quad cities, thinking it would be a better life, as we drive down the west side, guys running down the street of 1rst and 2nd.
