Violence mostly starts by people disrespecting each other. If other gang members disrespect us, we disrespect back harder. If you join a gang, that means you're asking for violence to be a part of your life. Some people join gangs and try to fake the funk. That's why there are suckers who are dead or on the run.
Revenge is one of the important things for being a gangster.
If some other gang member beats you up or kills your homeboy, you have to get your revenge. If you don't they will probably think that you are scared, and they will keep punking you. By Mr. Blackbird Life is never easy for anyone, we all have that in common. We try to walk through life with a smile, but the lenses of life are shattered by trials. I am a first hand witness of the inner city tragedies some youth must go through in their survival, living day to day.
