Very sad. One time that I actually believe the kid wasn't involved in a gang himself. He had offers to go to Stanford, and his mom was serving in Iraq when her 17 year old was killed.

the terrorism vs. gang violence debate:

how many americans have been hurt as a result of gang activity versus terrorism? i am willing to bet gang activity. so if that is the greater problem then the resources should be kept here in the country working to fix that problem. like some of you have said, the greater the risk/problem/number of deaths is where the money needs to go

and im not about to believe dogmeat was referring to global populations when he was talking about 300,000 people or whatever because i cant imagine he cares (ala he has routinely posted about turning the middle east into glass).

whats the phrase, something like gangs are the american terrorists on american soil or whatever

Gangs sell drugs.

Drugs sponsor terrorism.

Let them kill each other while we use our money to attack the source.

I'm sorry, but I stopped feeling sorry for black people in 1992.
