Well said, CT4.

LoJ, the comparison of Tookie Williams as a founder of the Crips to the founders of our BGLOs really bothers me. BGLOs as a whole, do not commit the illegal acts of hazing, etc--wayward members do. I can't say the same about gangs.

Growing up, I had family members and acquaintances that belonged to rival Chicago gangs--the Vice Lords and the Disciples. There was nothing protective (except for their "own" territories,) nor uplifting about them, .
