Minnesota has one of the largest SE Asian populations. At first they were considered the "model minority." The media constantly reported about their academic prowess, work ethic, etc. But now it is changing. Asian gangs have grown tremendously within the last 10 years, and the violence associated with the gangs has, too.

As someone who's had three family members in Asian gangs, it still boggles my mind how some of them can go from straight As and a clean sheet to being this Larenz Tate O-Dogg wannabe living in a VERY well-off economic neighborhood. I don't understand the motive to join a gang when you're not socially "forced" into it.
