I am not opposed to the mere assembly of young people into a gang. I am opposed to illegal activity by said individuals, however. Below is a news story from WMPM. I just hope that SUR13 or MS13 doesn't need to meet HK9mm or S&W45. A lot of this is the product of our national policies on illegal immigration, but the current government administration doesn't see the need for border security. Idiots.
Gang Graffiti Being Tracked By Law Enforcement - Smithfield Police are photographing and tracking an increasing amount of gang graffiti on buildings and signs trying to decode any hidden messages. Sgt. R.D. Sheppard said in many instances gang members are trying to mark or claim territory or even send a message to other gangs. In Smithfield, symbols from two Latino gangs, SUR13 and MS13, are frequently seen. Sgt. Sheppard said no known members of the two gangs live in Smithfield but members frequent clubs in the area. Nationwide, these gangs are commonly involved in narcotics, prostitution, break-ins, robberies and other violent crimes to obtain money. Sgt. Sheppard said a juvenile gang, Field Squad, also operates in Smithfield, but is considered to be far less violent.
