You suck at links but I’ll take your word for it. I just think they use the word gang to describe a group of black guys. You could say we were pick pocketed by a gang the other night but they showed no friendship to each other cause they were quick to rat rach other out. o me a gang is an organized group taking orders from a higher up. These are clearly hood thugs that wanna shoot to solve their problems.
