MT member Hawke has posted a bit about gangs. He's shared his personal experience with gangs in his area and posted about whether would teach a gang member martial arts.
His writing made me think back to Halloween night. I live near Salem, Mass...a big place for Hallowe'en celebrations. Police from towns all over the North Shore were on the lookout for "gangs and gang colors" as it was described in the Salem News.
In this Northern California story, some Staples employees in an upscale suburb of San Francisco have been beaten for wearing their trademark red shirts.
In my area, gang activity has been rather quiet but from time to time some independent gangs show their face.
What should one watch for? What can one do?
