gangs (vs., to eat, activity)

[Juice.]

There are no "gang dangers" to even consider unless you're moving into the area directly West of downtown. Rose Park/Glendale are the only neighborhoods with any noticeable gang issues. The rest of Utah's "gang problem" is grossly overblown.

Unlike in every major city in America, most of the gang crime in SLC isn't drug related. It really is a bunch of morons mad at another bunch of morons over meaningless garbage. The Tongan/Samoan gangs are the most violent. But the Mexican gangs, Surenos/Nortenos, are the most annoying.

Just don't move into Rose Park or Glendale, and if you do, for gods sake, get a house, and DO NOT move to any of the major apartment complexes I.E. City Park, Greenpoint, etc, they are crime ridden, full of drug dealers, car theft, violence, etc. They're like the housing projects you'd have in other cities.

Sorry Juice but you are WAYYYY off base. You WISH it was limited to Glendale and Rose Park. West Valley City has been high on the list for gang related crime with Taylorsville fast behind. Those 2 are 2 other towns I'd steer very clear of. South Salt Lake is also on the rise regarding gang and property crime. Do your homework. The information is out there. If you have internet access it's a few mouse clicks away. As I say WVC most certainly is one to stay AWAY from.

you want to be scared of people out in salt lake it shouldnt be "gangs" i am a small white female a whole 110 pounds and i am not scared of utah at all! Rose park west valley magna Kearns it's all just places Midvale is supposed to be scary too but i was raised there. Really like any where else in the WORLD keep your nose where it belongs no body wants your oppinion just remember that you cant handle the poor then stay outta our home towns. I'm not a ****ing gangster I am a punk rocker and if there is any type activity going on it's Punks V.S. Juggahoes you know the idiots running about with face paint like a lame ass clown saying how horrible there life is and how they just wanna kill something but like i said keep you nose out of peoples bussiness and you should be fine

I have lived in Rose parks slept on the streets down town was born and raised in Taylorsville/ kearns area hitch hiked alone in West valley and went to JR high in SSL (south salt lake) DONT BE SCARED OF US we know when you are and we will mess with your head!

I have only one two words... "how pathetic". I'm just very blessed and honored to have lived in and witnessed a time devoid of such reprobates. I'll cling to my memories when people such as those discussed virtually didn't exist...or at the very least they weren't tolerated. That's what we get for becoming such a "liberal" society. When you take a "it's all good" attitude you end up with too much $hit to get rid of. It all backs up on society and you get what we have. I am no longer proud of this country and it's stances whatsoever. Sure, there are places worse, and places better for that matter. As they say the time is fast approaching when the Almighty WILL have HIS chance to straighten it all out, along with the folks that have NOT paid attention to HIM either. May it be soon........

wow how old are you dude... cause America has had gangs since the 1920 some areas just are not as bad as others i didnt mean as a group, people know when you fear them i am saying as the human race no matter the age race or sex people are going to be bullied no matter what. I want to see god what makes god real bud? Cause really if i cant touch it or see it isnt real. Do you even know what reprobate means because i dont think you have any room to judge. You know you can go to hell for having that hollier then thou attitude!!! A few more Questions if there is a god what makes him a he? What makes him out to be a human being? With out conflict there could be no peace!



Holy $hit are you king Arthur oh wait even in the mid evil times they had bandits. Where you brought up by pure igorance, wait HA your religious and from utah. I know my home town all to well!

Lets answer the 1st question 1st. I'm probably old enough to be your parent (which thankfully I"m not or I can virtually guarantee you would NOT be who you currently are). 2nd if you ever read scripture you'd have a clue to the answers of several of your questions. 3rd. I'm NOT from Utah Nor LDS Nor xtian for that matter. I don't read nor consider the greco-roman Kjv bible accurate in any regard. It wasn't written in greek in the first place. The translations are rife with error and yet most of the xtian world takes it as literally the gospel. Half of the reason for the worlds ills are the prescription for removal of one from the planet for serious crimes (like murder) has NOT been adhered to and hence you have the vermin you have today running rampant.

Yes I actually agree there was indeed a "balance" placed here to indicated good from evil. BUT you are to discern between them. it is the choices you make that determine your future. I hope for you that you will have a better one than is indicated. I'm by no means King Arthur. LOL. Just considering the truths that have been with us for too many generations to count. You may not wish to accept Elohim (hebrew for judge) of all, that is of course your choice. HE (yes HE) even stated in HIS word "I give you choices good and evil life or death choose wisely" so you go right ahead and live as you wish if that's the case. If you did any homework (I'm guessing you rarely ever did) you'd know that the El Shaddai (The Almighty) is indeed "all spirit" and does not have a physical body. So good luck seeing it as such.

I'm not going to go on here and lecture you about what you do or do not believe. As for the other question, I grew up on the South Side of Chicago, where I was well aware of gang existence, but it for the most part was not in our neighborhood. It was around however. I felt very sorry indeed for those that lived in those neighborhoods that had to endure that drivel and strife caused by those pieces of $hit that call themselves humans doing this kind of activity. I can discern who is and is NOT of of that nature. I am NOT however their final judge, BUT rest assured there is little doubt there is a very toasty place awaiting them in which they will be blotted out as almost certainly their names are NOT written in the Book of Life. Nuff said.....go on with your wonderful life............

hmmmm my parent huh. Here is the thing dude, you couldnt be my parent if you wanted to. I really didnt read the rest of this cause it was like school all over again and i have been done with school for years now. funny thing is I am a atheiest so this talk of hevean and hell really doesnt matter to me when your dead your dead. you turn into soil for all the animals to eat the grass that comes from your dead body. But NOOOO you god fearing idiot seem to think that putting everyone in a box is the best way "so we can be delivered to god!!!!" Actualy i have never studied religion for the fact of i didnt want i never portraited that i knew every thing about religion. SO really i dont give a **** about your religion AT ALL. This was stated on GANGS YOU IGNORANT PEICE OF FLESH



Thank you i will happy day!
