Teen gangs within Auckland. How....stupid!
Gangs of Auckland
* Bloods and Crips: Taking the names of those real Los Angeles gangs, the Bloods and the Crips spawn umbrella groups.

All gang related things are.
I've yet to hear about one that respects life, does good for a neighborhood or goes out of their way to be a productive force in society.
Being a real man or woman is tough.
No one said growing up is easy. No one owes another for a "good life". It's what you make it. Unfortunatley, they choose to end it...if not themselves, then other people. That's Smart??
Wow, Avondale never struck me as being a hotbed of organised crime. I'll remember to pay protection next time I'm bussing out to New Lynn.
Oh, also big ups to the hard-hitting (South Central) Manukau Courier for telling it like it is.
