[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP I taught at a school with a gang presence.  It's true that the average student wouldn't know who was a gang member unless they were told.  And that the unsafe situations we heard about all took place off school grounds, and after school hours.  [b]During school, if you were sitting next to a gang member in class, you were talking about how the homework went, and when is the upcoming test.  Just like the other kids.[/b]  What gang issues the friends did the friends cite?  By the way, when I was teaching, recruitment was done mostly at the middle school level.  [/quote]
That is so sad. That shows they are still kids that can be saved. [/quote]
I'm the PP you quoted.  Yes.[/quote]
These "kids" routinely torture and kill other kids. They do it in groups of 10 or more. They look llike kids, but they are not innocent. Their youthful appearance makes them even more dangerous, imo.[/quote]
PP I'm the teacher quoted above.  If you have real-life gang experience or have worked with data on gang activity, please do share it.[/quote]

WTF?  Do you read the news?  I live in Silver Spring and the gang related stories (the past three years especially) have been gruesome and scary.  Where do you live that you do not think MS-13 is a problem in MCPS and the county as a whole?[/quote]
