The only issue I see is that it would be hard to get info out of these guys if they do catch them. If they could threaten to throw these guys away for good they would have a better chance of getting testimony from them about other activities happening in the gang. Right now its like "if you dont talk you are going to jail for at least the next 5 years"
these guys dont care where they start shooting its not the high profile people doing the shootings its the people who are trying to get into the gang or who are trying to make a name for themselves that are stupid enough to shoot someone in broad daylight and if they get caught than you think there gonna talk about anything hell no theyll be dead in two seconds if they talk

And that was my point with the judicial system, its a joke and everyone knows it.

The jails we have hear are nicer then the places alot of poor people rent. The sentences are so cushy with good behavior you will never server even close to your full sentence ( which is already 4 x as short as anywere else.)

Add to that that if you deal drugs you can make way more money that a doctor or an highly educated individual. Its a recipe for the continuation of this problem.

Also add-in that the inner circle of the gang reveres people willing to "put in work" and the notority that comes with that, You will always have people lining up to take the place of the dead people.

Whats sad is now its no longer them just offing each other, which in my opinion is a good thing. The girl that got shot in her truck was one of my girlfriends good friends. She was no more envolved in this stuff then fucking the guy they shot in mall.

Its been said over and over that making thing illigal doesn't work. Prohibition was proof of that but there are also other examples. People will do what they want to do whether its legal or not. And when the dont have an avenue to get thing legaly, they will always turn to the neighbourhood crook.

There are many solutions to this problem but having our government actually do something rather then posture to the media just wont happen.

That IGA is a little too close to home. Fucking gangsters. Probably staying in public places on purpose too in the hopes they won't get shot out in the open.

I don't think anything is going to happen unless the judges and politicians start to fear for their own families' safety. They don't give a flying fuck about anything except themselves. The justice system is blind - and not in a good way.

You know what's awesome, they use tax money to move this chump to Colossus so the damn medi-van helicopter can come pick him up to take him to the hospital, so between his rescue, operations and bed-time plus officers guarding his room etc.... how much you figure saving this shithead's life cost the tax payers? $500,000? $1,000,000?

They should have showed up and said "Aww he's bleeding, that's sad. *start whistling and taking pictures*" It's not like he's goinmg to contribute anything to the world. Ever.

As Bush would say "the market works itself out" let them kill each other and when enough are dead it will die down. Now the bigger question is, how many innocent people were killed in these gang related shootings?

For all I care, let me massacre each other all they want until they all get what they deserve.
