No doubt. But the police pick them up for commiting crimes. Now maybe that is not true "gang banging" but these kids do have rap sheets.

Take the distribution out of the hands of criminals.

Legalizing marijuana would be done to control the use, not promote it. It is here, so why not control it.

Now I don't know that this would work, but I surely have thought about it and wondered if it would. The other thing would be a needle exchange program, so as to at least cut down on diseases (Hepatitis, HIV) w/in the population of drug users. In addition, w/ a needle exchange program, one could then better monitor the users and offer cessation programs . . . rehab, etc.

I don't know if it would work, but I surely have thought about it in re: to both a public health problem and a control/crime problem. It is certainly something to ponder, even tho I know that at first glance, most people react very negatively to the idea.
Mary J should definitely be controlled for all the reasons you mentioned.

Hunting with THOSE guns? doubtful.

What is a "poser" gang member? Charlotte has these punks putting stuff on their myspaces, which seems lame, but what makes anybody a "poser" and does that make it less dangerous? We have a high per capita crime rate and a HUGE problem with repeat offenders. Just because we are in the south does not mean these kids aren't shooting eachother and the innocents. In the last week, there has been a drive by AND a murder within one or two miles from my house...

I feel like you are taking PRIDE in the fact that other cities have worse or more prevalent gang problems, and somehow that is because of their geographic location? Somehow that makes them better?

Let's face the facts - Charlotte has a problem. Whether that problem stems from "posers" that are "posing" by killing people, or from "real gansta homeys" or whatever you might call them. These "posers" are going out committing murder, armed robbery, larceny, and everything else under the sun and getting released from jail to do it again and again.

Perhaps they are "posers", but does that change the fact that they are doing these things? Seems like an immature viewpoint.
