gangs

there are many things we can do to try and stop gangs. first there are the simple and obvious ones. we can increase police presence and set up community spots for the kids to go to instead of going to chill with their homies. i know these have already been attempted and still doesnt work so i dont know what to do then. there really isnt a way to completely stop gangs unless you prevent it from the beginning. kids who are raised in bad areas are influenced by people so much. most of them will end up in gangs even if it is against their own will. i dont think anything will work because there are always factors that make kids join gangs. for example, sometimes they dont feel safe so they join a gang to gain a brotherhood that they may not have and they then feel safe.
