It's actually everyone's problem.
You have to be familiar with every setting that you're in. I've seen locals and gang members fight BGLO members over strolls and other things. I know of BGLO members who have gotten shot because they were confused for someone else. It's not worth fighting or being killed over--wasn't worth it when I was an undergrad and certainly isn't worth it now. If the Bloods and Crips or other nonBGLOers have their thing, the BGLO members need to be aware of it and get out the way if necessary.
If BGLO members care so much to make a change somewhere, they should get involved with gang-oriented or other community service starting the following Monday.
Sorry, T La Rock, LL killed it.
