Meh, that's nothing. We just had a couple gangs spring up where they firebombed each others houses with molotow cocktails. Believe it or not, they're not involved in the drug trade.

The first rule of Fight Club is - you do not talk about Fight Club.


^LOL

Don't forget the second Rule!

Never underestimate stupidity in packs!
Revenge is a least logical, but to bash a friend for no reason but overall acceptance in a group is to create a group on false hope, which will probably end up with these losers crumpling under the force of Police and ratting each oter out, the only reason these type of people Bash people weaker than them is convince themselves they aren't losers, they don't have the guts to rebel against any TRUE enemy

There is a gang in my town, The Athol Town Soldiers. It is made up of middle school aged kids. They shave part of their eyebrows, wear black, and beat little kids up. To get initiated they have to suffer a beating from the gang.


lol....This reminds me of some caucasian people who were forming this gang in the White (well Irish) part of the South Side (Enclave, relatively small); they call themselves the Mount Greenwood Disiples...IIRC they're all Wiggers and Punks...

wow they arn't going to have a chance. I think this whole gang problem is just so out of hand. I have a police friend and he sayd to me once that in the old days when kids, or adults for that matter, would behave in this manner they would take them out in an alley and beat the pulp out of them. Or the villagers would gather and solve the problem old school 8) man why cant I go back in time an join the force :D


Another reason why 'f**k the Police' is such a popular slogan, the Black people rose up in the 60s, Anarchists busted caps in peoples asses starting in the 1800s, and people like Alfred Kinsey and the like fought that f****d up backwards things....

I remember my mom looking back on those days with nostalgia...I simply see repression and BS social/gender norms and roles.... *shudders*

Besides, the same types of fights, violence, etc happened in the past. Anyone remember all the ethnic gangs/greasers/etc in rumbles in the 1950s and earlier on?

Now that I brought that up, anyone remember the Book "The Outsiders"? Awesome book.... :P

IIRC many gangs (at least some) beat the s**t out of their new initiates.

Eh, that's nothing. We have gangs where I live that make these clowns look like Sunday school teachers.


Where do you live precisely? Given "the dirty south" location suggests a urban area, IIRC some of the small towns in Arkansas, Mississippi, etc are full of Black Gangs. LOL, yes the South is full of
Bloods, Crips, etc. Niggaz ready to cap asses...surprisingly the don't try f*****g up the remaining KKK and the like in the area; oddly enough many of those gangs started out as anti-racist defense militias like the Black Panthers

Gangs are a great study in male inadequacy.


lol. Well not really, given how varied gangs are (say, the "Old School" Italian (well Sicilian lol) Mafia would be much different than a Gangster Disciple faction).

I wouldn't all "One percenter" Biker Gangs "inadequate" given what they started out as; Us Soldiers returning from occupying/bombing the hell out of/defending/liberating (depending on perspective) Europe..

How do some gangs become as big as they are?


Luck, Good Leadership, Good environment, etc. The same stuff that allows other empires and nations to grow.

And how do they continue to exist?


They either hide it very good; can avoid police detection by either being better at it than police or buying out/having informats inside, they conduct their operations in areas that are hard to patrol without the police occupying the area like a foreign army which is also provoking said groups into capping police in said hood (seriously, they tried placing heavy police presence in some near south side places, Jesse Jackson and some chicago alderpeople said 'f**k that' and they might try it in Englewood lol).

And there's the fact that they can splinter and fracture and form new gangs with the same name/mythology/symbolism/alliances. Like Guerilla (or "Terrorist") cells. That's how they grow

I'm talking about the famous ones. The ones that extort businesses and, presumably, pay cops to look the other way.


IIRC The Black and Hispanic gangs don't extort business. though I am not sure about this, so check from for someone else depending on area, etc.
