Gang Protection

"My gang will protect me”- Unknown
This is what most of the kids that join a gang think, and there wrong. Being in a gang only increases the risk of them getting problems, and getting confronted by other gang members. Becoming a part of a gang suddenly gets them many enemies just like that. They no longer can go out of there house without any worries or fear; all of a sudden they become a target to many of the gangs out there. They are in a constant fear when they go out of there neighborhood or even inside. They don’t even know when they might get confronted. It could be anywhere and with anyone they might be with, putting the person they are with in danger also, maybe a girlfriend or family member. At last, the greatest level of danger they could get caught up in, bigger then just being confronted or being afraid of walking outside there house, is death.

Being in a gang means them becoming a target for death as well. Having that many enemies of that character, people that don’t care about what they do, that are dangerous, drug addicts, revengeful and relentless, don’t bring nothing but problems. Members live with daily concern of getting shot. They have to be careful everyday when they go out to the street, and have to be careful in what territory they step into. A gangster has many enemies and they don’t know when they step out of there house if there coming back; being in danger of when its there turn to get shot at because there in the wrong neighborhood is a thing they deal with everyday.
