Im 16 years old and im around a gang related environment everyday!!I have friends thats in it and some of their reasons for being in a gang is because they need love and support, some kids parents don't care for them and or wasn't there for them so they go out and find love in the streets!Kids get suspended from school everyday when they should just get alot of hours of community service!!Then when kids get sent to jail where most of the gang start at So I think we just need a better punishing system
