Gangs


Gangs. Up 40% since 2009. The number of gangs have increased to 1.4 million members in 330,000 gangs.

Another story about gangs.

Comforting news? Do gangs feel safe under this Obama administration? More desperate people given license to commit mayhem by lax DOJ policies? Should we take references to “gangs” out of the DOJ training too.

National Gang Center. Characteristics: Male. Younger rather than older. 49% Latino. 35% African American. 9% white. 7% other.

Race and ethnicity of gangs is Hispanic and African-American, 1996.
