Tell me about gang trouble where you live?

I live in southern California...
I can't say I've seen that much gang activity here but I've heard about it.
Like when my friends were walking around the school during a carnival, they said they saw someone yell and shoot at someone, and other stuff like that...
 
I live in the car theft capital of Canada.
One kid was convicted of stealing something like 35 different cars.
It's just car theft though. All the other crimes are pretty low.

Heh, places like that car theft isn't a gang thing....its just a "really bored kids" thing.
 
We don't really seem to get gangs around here, not even in Belfast or Derry. I think the paramilitaries 'discourage' that type of thing. :rolleyes:

Hey Frank were are you from France? It seems like it, you guys are all right, in France the they always worry about "cultural invasion by Americans" but they don't see that the Arabs are taking over man, in the streets now all you see is Arabs, fine with me, but all they do is tag streets, rob, and when you look at them they all get racist, don't even get started in school, the French are scared of them, this people are always hitting on them, its horrible, that’s one reason why me parents left France, last year I went back, and I really cried, such a beautiful country, now all you see is them making havoc, they don't even work, the government pays for them to do nothing.
When some one who has balls come and says enough, the media start accusing them of being Nazis and racists.

If I hear word of revolution in France, man I'm in, I'll get a plane ticket as soon as possible.

I'm not aware of any gang trouble where I live. Then again, I rarely go out after six pm (no reason to go). It's mostly drunks that cause trouble, I suppose.
 
Frank said:
Nah, but really...the only ones here who make trouble are those ****ing immigrants!
They keep saying:
"Oh bu-huuu, we're so bored, let's go smash something or someone"
****ing cocksuckers...

same here in sweden..the imigrants is the biggest troublemakers...but its nothing compared to the shit in the states..
 
I used to live in NY. The home of the gangs. No Mafia-like gangs, but there were naughty kids.
 
No actual trouble here where I live, but just over in Dandenong... Well...

Druggies and drug dealers seemingly in every corner, gangs of mixed ages and origins stirring crap up, I've even seen people being threatened/extorted... Nasty place, if you walk into the wrong area... The Hub and The Plaza are all right, though...
 
I'm pretty paranoid, so I've studied hand-to-hand combat for some time now. I'm studying krav maga at the moment. It should prove useful.
 
I know how to introduce someone's nose cartilage to their frontal lobe, literally pierce someone's ears, and make sure they can never flip the bird again...

Hope I never have to do any of that, though...
 
My friend once went out with a guy who had actually twisted someones scrotum until it had torn...quite a painful image and i suspect a painful experience. He apprently went to hostpital and they manage to save one of the balls.

Sort of matter of fact way of saying all that but it did really happen and it was a horrible time for the guy it happened to.

I live in a small town, not too far away from London, in Kent.
Now, for the past 5-6 years, there has been a large growth in what we regionally know (the naming varies across the country) as 'Chavs', others call them 'townies', 'rudeys', 'rudeboys' etc.
These guys are quite similar to Pikies and Gipsies which roam the land reeking havoc. Well, these guys are usually working class, in single parent famillies and they live in council housing - that is a large generalisation but trust me, its a very true one.
These people, you first notice in school, they are the bullies... they gang up on 'other' people, with a weird hate which seems to come out of nowhere, they hate everything that isnt like them... so grundgers, trendies, geeks and anyone else non-chav are all victims to them and their shit.
They always start fights down or outside the local pubs, but only when they are in far superior numbers.
Most of my friends have been hit, threatend, beaten up and me and my friends have been started on by these morons, plenty of times.
They never go to school, never get any good qualifications, get crummy jobs and window cleaners or just laze around the streets with their kind, having babies and taking benefits.
And this goes on, they are all useless parents, they dont care about their kids, very often you can go into a shop and your hear the awful, shrill voices shouting "marrleeeeneeee" or "maaacceee, get back 'ere, bruv". The kids run around, causing mess and real problems to everyone else whereever they are and the parents do nothing, they are chavs, rearing chavs.
I dont know how we can stop this, its a group of people (seeming to be the majority where i live), who take everything for granted, they dont value their education and cause grief for the minority of self-respecting people.
Here's a website all about them, its becoming quite a problem now, and more people are talking/moaning and bitching about them.
http://www.chavscum.co.uk/

Do you have these people in Europe or around the world or is it just a British thing?
 
It's definately a British thing, I think. Us folks down in Crawley have a big problem with 'Townies', who spend the evenings hanging around in the middle of town centres drinking cheap cider (even though they're all underage by two or more years) and starting fights.
A local 'townie' lady has also taken the title for being Europe's youngest mother, too.

where does it come from then? is it pure class inequality or is there some other strange forces at work....'famous' examples of the chav culture have been the So Solid Crew, Blazin Squad etc, where does it all start?
They are like the plague, u just cant get away from these people other than move out the country or into a rural area... and i dont want to live in a rural village! Even in the more rural area's where i live, there's chavs.
 
It's probably to do with the tedious and monotonous crap that people call 'music' these days that's slowly transforming folk into Townies. Back in the day, RnB and Rap Music actually had musical variation in them (take 'Things That Make You Go Hmm' as a classic example of rap that has actual music in it). These days, we get the pants stuff that has one plagarised line of rhythm in it being looped over and over again, while some American Gangster promotes the abuse of women, the good of drugs, and the wonders of alcohol to our under-16s.

I swear, if everyone started listening to Bon Jovi, we'd all be okay.

This is basically an accurate representation of the town I live in too. Infact the estate I live in (r.e. my earlier post).

It's one of the main reasons I think that from 16 - 18 national service should be brough back to teach these ****ers some kind of lesson.

Oh, that and some form off mass sterilisation at birth whereby when you want a kid you have to proove yourself worthy rather than just opening your legs on some drunken night, having a kid you didn't really want in the first place, like the skags on this estate im on for instance.

i agree... i'd be good for everyone to join the army, to teach everyone some respect, i think they still have mandatory 2 yrs army service in France? and they dont have this trouble.

Man, that's awful. There are a few places that still have mandatory National Service and they seem to have less problems overall.
 
i run a gang. it's the cleveland chapter of the NYC Warriors.. out here in cleveland we go by the "7th St. Ballers!". we mostly wander aimlessly around the streets, beating up other gangs. they can be easily identified b/c they all dress according to some theme.. like the Heights Hustlers (they look like pimps, we're currently at peace with them), the 8-Ball Loonies (they all wear straight jackets.. they are easy to beat up), and the East Cleveland Do-gooders (they all dress like mormans.. surprisingly tough bunch, that one).

NUFF RESPEKT!

"waaaarrriiiooors come out to plaaaayyy, waaaarrriiiooors"

yer old lil tim :)
 
you'd still have to know about that movie...it's obscure but a cult classic....I remember when it came out in the theater...so I'm old too...no shame in being of the geriatric set ;)
 
I was coming home one night from the cinema, and there was this guy running around without a shirt. He was screaming and running around, behaving aggressively. Good thing I wasn't on foot. It occured to me that it might not be a bad idea to carry a handgun when I'm late outside. Of course, you can't get one in Finland because of really, really strict laws.
 
Cybernoid, picture this:

The shirtless man has a shirt, but it's burberry. Also a hat.
There are ten of them.
All of them are between 14-21.
All of them are sitting on a park bench, drinking cheap cider.
All of them have some sort of weapon in their pockets (likely knives)

That's what the South-East of England tends to be like. It's hellish.

Please send me lots of postage stamps so I can mail myself to a less-agressive country!

-Angry Lawyer
 
Hmmm we get chavs (scallies, spides or hoods as we call them) over here in 'Norn Irn' too, but they're less likely to cause trouble in neighbourhoods, mostly just around bars, and seem to have weapons less than those in England.
Another feature of their behaviour - they 'cruise' along main shopping streets at 5mph with their (tinted/gay) windows rolled down playing the worst dance music imaginable as loudly as they can. Once they reach a more open road they tend to speed badly.
Don't forget their clothing, all sportswear, all the time. :)

We have these "racist incidents" here in Helsinki, Finland. People get stabbed on their way to work in the sub. But this isn't common.
 
As far as I know, there aren't any gangs around where I live. Our main problems are underage drinking, weed, and underage mothers. At school, all you hear kids talking about is where theyre going to get drunk and high, and who theyre going to score with. As far as I know, harder drugs (cocane, heroin, etc) are rarely used, if at all.

We've got what we refer to as a Mormon Nest currently in construction in our neighbourhood... I want to get a shotgun to keep by the door the moment they start hymn-ing...
 
No problems here.

Yes, I live in Heaven's intercourse with Earth.

Are you serious? So if someone tried to mug you you would just pull it out and blast a few in them? What if they (and this is most likely) took you by surprise and turned the gun on you?
 
People are too gun happy... well. Generally too weapon happy.


I have had many people threaten to knife me. I just tell them that if they come near me with a knife I will have a perfect excuse to kick the crap out of them and then if I feel like it stab em a few times all in the name of self defence.


Usually makes em a little more weary. :p
