A lot of these gangs come from broken homes with limited economic opportunities, so that's a big part of it. These are conditions of poverty. My question is how do we quash these socioeconomic events that lead to gang activities?

Stop the breeding ? If your too poor to live without raising killers, robbers and thugs, than maybe you need to stop having them . End of problem .

Then maybe they should start teaching sex education in public schools again and make birth control more available. I agree people shouldn't have kids if they can't afford them, but they don't always have the resources. Plus, we have idiots like Bristol Palin teaching abstinence when that goes against human nature.

I agree with you boy do i, Rabid dogs allright. And since they gang members think that they are so tough and love to fight, send them all into our WAR ZONE, see how tough they are then.

For starters we need to collectively tell Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton to shut the hell up and sit down, we need to cut off funding to these race huslin poverty pimps, and start letting real Christian organizations go in and do their work if there ever were a mission field it is the ghetto. We need to put the likes of Maxine Waters behind bars and make her do community service down in these gang infested cesspools that she helps perpetuate.

I sort of agree. The problem we have created is that we go out of our way to "save" everyone but then become responsible for them and their offspring and all future generations. We haven't got to the point yet where we stop trying to save people, or found a way to get them off life support and able to care for themselves. Unfortunately, if I had to guess, I'd say we will stop saving people before we ever figure out how they can take care of themselves. I think some folks are just a lost cause.
