I see tons of evidence of gang activity everyday. When I was at Cherry Creek some people claimed to be members of either the Bloods or the Crips and would fight afterschool. Some would wear their colors to school as well. It isn't always gangsters though. Lots of times, it is posers or just people who like the clothing style. I also see lots of graffiti that is gang related. Crowns, C's, B's and other signs show up a lot. Where and what do you see on a day to day basis?

  1. It's amazing how teenage kids will appropriate gang language and action. I suppose many of them are simply looking to fit in to a community, and these are the closest choices for them.

    I used to see lots of tagging outside the grocery store I worked at in high school. I used to think it was hardcore gang stuff, but now I think it was just kids.
