Tennessee Gang Activity
The National 2009 FBI Report on gangs is out. The map of Tennnessee by county is on Page 28. You can make the map larger. You need Adobe Acrobat Reader to view it (which is a free download, by the way).

I havent read the article yet, but thanks for the link. The big city of Monterey recently had a problem with gang related graffiti. The perpetrators have been apprehended. I dont know if they are actual gang members or just being kids being punks.

That doesn't surprise me at all. Monterey is one of several small towns in Tennessee, along with Morristown, McMinnville, and Shelbyville, that is being taken over by illegals. Ship 'em back and seal it up! |

Yup.
It was M-13 crap spray painted on buildings. Someone has painted over it, but I dont know if it was the kids that did it or not.

MS-13 has been a problem for years in the bigger cities (Nashville, Knoxville, and Memphis), but I hadn't noticed any MS-13 gang members in the smaller cities...
If you don't know, MS-13 is the biggest gang on earth. You don't hear about them as much as you probably hear about bloods and crips in America, but they are huge.

If the economy gets worse, crime is going to go way up. I just hope the police and local government are planning for it. If I was governor/mayor/county poohbah and had to figure out what to do with federal freebie money, I'd use it to hire more police and finish that prison (which would also put blue collar types to work) that, I think, was put on hold.
