there number of gang member far outnumber the number or police officers, that's one of the reasons the gangs are so hard to control.

All I can say is that gangs need to be eradicated, STAT. I know I am just dreaming, though. In my eyes, gang members are cockroaches and I wish there was a way to just get rid of them!! If only there was a way.

Ahhhh, another one!!

The 'shoestring strip' along the Harbor Freeway, between Harbor City and South LA.

It doesn't have an above average crime rate. It's actually a very nice area. Very middle class.

"Us" would be society. If more successful people would sign-up for mentor programs there would be positive people to help guide and direct these kids to a more positive lifestyle. I work with these kids and know that for most of them, a time, attention and positive reinforcement can go a long way.

The $ 1,000,000 who is willing to give up a couple of hours a week to help reduce gang violence?
