What Do You Think About Gangs?

BlackHaze · Post by **BlackHaze** » Thu Jul 12, 2007 6:49 am

Around Where I Live (Maryland) I've Seen Bloodz And Crips Pop Out Of Nowhere. Regardless Of "Realness". My School Has Many Gangs From MS13 To Latin Kings And Vatos Locos (VL). I've Been A Target For Some MS13 Members For Awhile Now... (These Guys Are Punks Though, They Didn't Do Anything But Give Me Some Evil Looks.) I've Been Invited Into Some Of Them Because My Friends Are In Them. I've Turned Down All Of Their Generous Offers. :roll:

My Opinion Is, These Gangs Fight Over Respect, Drug Dealing Territory And Nothing. Kids My Age Are Dieing Over Nothing. Wasted Lives Added To Those Lives Wasted On Wars. Respect? Why Can't We All Just Believe Everyone Deserves Respect For Free? I Hate That Thought "You Have To Earn Respect". With That One Mentality We Have People "Earning" Respect By Killing And Dealing. Gangs Aren't The Only Problem. Because Of Egos Our World Is Crumbling. Humans, The Only Species To Kill Each Other. Yeah, We're THAT Intelligent.

If You Stare At The World For Awhile, You'll See That Most (If Not All) Problems Are Caused By Someone Thinking They Are Better Than The Other Person. Egos. Their Opinion Or Way Of Life Is Better. The Way I See It Is... F*ck It. Do Whatever. The Clock Is Still Ticking.

What Can I Say But After Seeing All These Evils, It Consumed Me And Seduced Me To F*ck The World.

'The F*ck Happened To Those Days When You Can Go Outside And Play Without Locking Your Door?

Now, What's Your Opinion?

I grew up in a neighborhood I absolutely loved. Pretty houses, kept up lawns, everyone was friends. One family moved in, and the neighborhood went to chaos. They were major drug traffickers, and they brought gangs to the side of town I lived in. The older kids around the neighborhood got involved in the gang stuff, and I always wondered why some of their parents were always yelling at them?
Anyway, this girl that lived down the street, Kura, her older brother Tsuzu got involved in it, and their mother ended up getting shot to death one night in her home because her brother had become a target of some rival gang.
I don't believe in gangs, I don't believe one human being is superior or another. We were all born equal, and no matter how much of a reputation you have behind your name, or how much I have behind mine, you are no better than me, and I no better than you. If you think you can stop on one person and demand a certain amount of respect, you will get nothing from me. If you want my respect, you simply act like a good person in general, you don't have to earn anything. Respect is something you should give someone, despite their appearance and the way you judge their personality.

Gangs, as a whole, ruin lives of everyone. At some point in your life, you or someone close to you will have a loss due to some ignorant little punks thinking they can take whatever they want from someone, including the person's life. That kind of stupidity shouldn't exist in the world, but it does. it's a disgusting part of reality. Gangs grow by the day, and their numbers fall every day. I know a girl who got fcked into a gang, which is some new way of being put into one if you're a girl or something. Reducing girls to prostitution? Using them as pawns for something so moronic and life-threatening as a gang?
if there was any way to stop it, I would most certainly put my foot down and help someone draw a final line for gangs.

Sorry, that all probably sounded cheesy but it's kinda my view on it in general. Treat people how you would like to be treated yourself, and be a good person.
Everyone just needs a little lovin'.

I Feel For You Right There.
Life's Precious, Why Waste It Over Something Like Gangs?

i only know the ganks to stay away from

in my area thats mainly just the Burger Bar Crew they are as violent as ****, the AG Crew isnt soo bad they only really have knifes because they are mainly kids

like you said, gangs only take precious life to waste.

its bullcrap.

it just makes no common sense.

those people need to do some schooling and get a job and a happy family.

I know that for some / most this isnt easy or even an option, but flatout speaking: those people need to devote their lives to something more usefull to society instead of destroying it and the kids with it.

No gangs here. Only a few drug selling groups in the shopping district.

Im so glad for that.

Where i live is pretty peacefull but the other side is just full of corrupted people. They just wan't to fit in because they know there weak so they join "gangs" to help them fight. There follwers not leaders! and the ones that do drugs and stuff are getting pure presserd then soon they think it's cool doing drugs.

BTW i like rap so dont think of my sig That im'a bad dude i know rap talks about drugs and gangsters but dont really listin to those rap ones listin to AKON & T-PAIN they rap about good stuff most of the times.

QFT. Lots of people think they are "gangstas" but actually they're a piece of shit. Definitely a waste of time.

At least gangs are good for one thing, killing each other off.

Not that long if you think about it... as long as it would take to just type those letters without caps... just press the shift button while pressing the letter or do you use caps lock to capitalize your letters?

Lots Of Crips In My Area. I Wear Red A Lot And They Always Say The Same Thing. "You Don't Like Blue, Huh?" And If I'm In The Mood I'll Respond With, "You Have A Nice Day Too". Usually After That They Say I'm Crazy And Go Back To Whatever They Were Doing.
