How are gangs still a thing in the Amerilands? (Srs discussion)

https://www.pewresearch.org/short-re...ths-in-the-u-s

Reading through some articles and the amount of gang on gang deaths is difficult to get an accurate number but estimated 316 fire arm murders a day and about half are thought to be gang related.

So about 150 gang members are murdered everyday.

Considering that most people are not join gangs how have they not all killed each other to the point of not existing anymore?

In Hawaii, we had a relatively recent "gang" bust.

It's pretty crazy and movie worthy IMO.

Took the feds to step in to take em down, because the gang leader was literally banging the deputy prosecutor who was married to the Chief of Police.

They all in fed jail now.

"Gang related" doesn't necessarily mean the victims are in a gang, just the perps. Some of the victims are totally innocent people who were in the wrong place at the wrong time.

That’s a fair point. But I imagine that when a civilian gets killed police wood go after gangs more? You wood think they’d try to avoid civilian killings.

Honestly if I was president wood dead as deploy national guard on how gang crime areas such as Chicago and any gang members or accomplices to be taken off the streets dead or alive.

Poor people always form gangs, it's been that way throughout history. Some ethnic groups were able to achieve much more than the current American gangs though.

The Chinese are based. Put criminals into forced labor camps. Gang bangers + violent criminals. At least that way they will be productive members of society.

Nah, they just don't care. If they're doing a drive-by and there's 5 people standing there besides the target, they'll just spray the whole group.

Why are gangs always protecting the worse areas of town? People will full on die to protect a slum.

Seems they would try to do what they could to get the hell out of those areas.

You never hear about gangs in nice areas where people would need to protect their nice homes.
