Gangs are very crucial to our society today. " gang violence is decreasing overall, it still remains a problem. And, interestingly, it is a growing problem in smaller towns"(1970s, By The.

Finding Paragraphh!!!!!

Even though gang violence is decreasing overall, it still remains a problem. And, interestingly, it is a growing problem in smaller towns. Gang violence is very real, and is a problem in some cities and schools. Even with the overall decrease in national gang violence, there is still enough gang activity to make school dangerous in some cities, as well as make whole neighborhoods unsafe.Gangs have been in existence every since the rise of humanity. Humans have always banded together for mutual protection and support - and to better dominate others. Gangs have always provided a way for people to more effectively get what they want, especially if it comes to force. And weaker members of society gravitate toward gangs that they feel can offer a sense of community and protection from others. The word “thug”, though, comes from India. In about 1200 CE, the word was used to describe a group of criminals that pillaged country towns. The thugs had their own slang, rituals and signs to help identify other members and create their own tight-knit society. Gangs today have similar practices of creating their own sub-language, symbols, handshakes and other identifiers. t Gangs have been growing and the are getting worse everyday!

Gang violence around the world is rising very badly. People use to stick together and, now they are fighting and fusing. Gang members think they can show the strenght they by fighting. Back in the day they use to call it a group of criminals and now its just getting out of hand! They use slang vocabulary and  do different signs with their hands.

2. What is it that makes you feel powerful?

4. How do you get initiated in gangs?

what I know!

In these days and times people dealing with gangs are doing drugs. Over ten million people are killing people every second because of gangs. With the time period of 2006 until the present, there have been so many deaths dealing with gangs. People get in gangs because there friends are in it and they think its cool.My best friend got shot in the leg and arm over gangs. you can't even walk in the world without hearing bout a person getting shot over saying 5popping 6 dropping or the other way around.Gang violence is hurting one an others!

The story behind my topic:D

Gang violence here in the U.S is getting out of hand. The first time I heard about gang violence was when I started middle school. I would here people say "oh my family got shot last night because of throwing up signs!" I was in shocked! Right now in the U.S there are over 30,000s gangs with 800,000 members in them. Today people pick to do gangs because they want to feel powerful. Another reason is they feel as if their friend is in there they should be because if not they wont be their friend anymore.Gang violence is harsh! you loose people that is close to you. I choose this topic because it made me think alot more about the way of life.
