Why Do We Have Gangs?


(Read the complete article ... )

By Ryo Kutsuwada (545)

Summary:
"38 gang members were arrested and dozens of weapons were confiscated in South Los Angeles by Federal and local lawenforcement officials." The reason is that they manage narcotics and firearms sales business. Authorities confiscated assault weapons, such as AK-47s, Tec-9s and Uzis. "Here's a message to the gangs: We're ready to take any gang, anywhere, any time," Torres said at a noon news conference.

My Opinion:
A lot of people think gang must be bad personality. I think some people is bad personality, but other people is not. Some people wonder why people belong to gang? I think they don't have choice of job or to be gang is only way to make money, because their surrounding where they live is terrible. Their surrounding make them blong to gang. If the person is born in good surrounding and live in good surrounding, the person belong to gang? Abusolutely, it is not. For example, compare to America, there are not many gang in Japan, because they live in good surrounding. So Japanese don't need to belong to gang. As you know, there are big difference between rich people and poor people in America. This thing is a big problem. In short, we should consider about a cleavage in American society between the rich and the poor.

Most countries have a problem between the rich and the poor. There are a lot of homeless people in the U.S. They can work and earn money, but they don't have a will. Even they don't have a will, all of them won't be a gang. In my opinion, the men who are good at fighting are easier to become a gang than the poor.

Recentry, A winding gap between rich and poor is really deep problem in a lot of culture. I've felt this problem is also deep in the U.S. because it's too easy for me to watch homeles people here which means how huge the society of homeless here. Every society or culture need to solve the problem.

In fact, I firmaly with Ryo about his opinion of the gang. we should treat them with kindness and respect and they will treat us the same way. It is all about respect. If you have a problem with them, you will accomplish more by talking nice to them and trying to get them to see our position than by being rude, disrespectful, or intimidating.

Of course commit a crime and murder is very bad things, but before we insist that gangs are bad, we have to think about theirs surroundings, and also goverment should consider about the proplem.

That you think for me is absolutlely true. Unfortunately in the Earth there are so many poor people and less rich, and the difference between the two groups of people there are very strong. Of course for rich people the life is alwais good, no problem, a lot of money, in a lot of cases a good health, a good culture, a good family, etc. Unfortunately poor people have every problem, but this is the life!!!

In my opinion, gangs consist of people who suffer unfair treatment from society and their family, of course, Federal and local lawenforcement officials have obligation vanish this problem(gang), but the education is the central of problem that could avoid these people to become member of gangs.
