Are there violent gangs you know of in your neighborhood?

ChadJNSD · 18-21, M

@NativePortlander1970 Yes, teenagers that rape and steal from people in their 60s and 70s.

WillaKissing · 56-60, M

Nope, But I have bobcats, coyotes, black bears, snapping turtles in the water ways, copper heads, and rattlesnakes in the forest around my farm, does this count? LOL

There aren’t in the area I’m in. Good location. It’s mostly older folks. Further down the road, there’s a lot of drug-related stuff going on, though. But that’s not in the neighborhood.

Not with the military police close by, no.

Nope, biggest crisis is somebody stealing a bottle of Geritol or overdosing on little blue pills.

Since decriminalizing drug use in the Seattle area, the addicts need money to keep up the habit. Burglaries and home invasions are a daily thing.

HumanEarth · F

Where I used to live....Yes. There was crack heads, Drug wars, drive by shootings, and more.

Just once I would like to see a gang war where they did a dance off.

My hometown in Montana had a lot of gang activity going on especially during 2022. Graffiti brought a lot of attention to it, everyone was warning younger people to stay out of the alleyways and don't talk to strangers, etc. (us being in a small town where everyone knows everyone and everything, we didn't really listen) I haven't heard much since I have moved but luckily I get to visit back home every summer 🖤

Probably. It's a pretty bad neighborhood. With houses that cost at least half a million $$$.

DrWatson · 70-79, M

Absolutely not.

4meAndyou · F

Nope! ☺️

LilPrincess · 46-50, F

Nope...unless there is a gang of farmers...i think im safe.

Now the town I work in...is full of meth addicts that think they are gang members. 😒

i hear there are gangs in my city but that most violence in the area is down to "hybrid gangs" or people affiliated but acting on their own. i don't know what that means, completely, but there is very little to zero in my particular neighborhood

CountScrofula · 41-45, M

I'm in a rural area so the gangs are more like criminal rings of people who steal farm equipment for fencing, or just methheads who will group up together and occasionally do things people don't like (mostly doing meth and being noisy).

Not where I live right now, but I grew up in Gangster Two Six territory in Chicago. They were a scary gang and still are from what I hear.

deadgerbil · 26-30, M

I'm in a pretty good area of Chicago. No gang activity here. If I was living in the South and West sides, my neighborhood would be crawling with them

Nanoose · 61-69, M

There are but I live in Canada so the gangs say sorry after they curb stomp you. Cheers!

V00doo

Many

bijouxbroussard · F

Not so much where I am now, but there were when I lived downtown.

Crazywaterspring · 61-69, M

Just scammers.

Atlotto · M

Prolly not...Of all the years I've lived here, the police have showed up only one time because a party got too loud.

Sleepysheep · 26-30, M

I life about 12 mins from 7 mile Detroit. Lol I mind my own fucking business and keep my head down! 🤣

With more and more calis and east coasters moving to the area where I currently live, in the middle of nowhere iowa, crime is increasing.
