Questions about Gang Life

What is the most horrible experience you had as a gang member?
Throughout my life there have been so many things, but there was nothing
another human being couldn't do or wasn't capable of doing.
The most horrible experience - well, I tell you what that is ... every
single day that goes by inside this hole. "Freedom" - the freedom to walk,
to move wherever you want to go, the freedom to eat whatever you please.
After you eat the same crap every single day for five to ten years, you'll
get a better idea of what I'm talking about. The freedom of seeing the
sunlight. The loss of freedom is a horrible experience.
Now Erika, don't get me wrong. I'm a man who believes the old quote. "If
you do the crime, you better be ready to do the time." Plus I'd quote one
myself that goes like this, "There isn't a thing built by human hands that
can break the human mind"!
Loss of freedom is your answer.

Hello my name is Abneris. I'm 15 yrs. Old. I would like to ask u Do u
regret what u did in the day? How's life in Prison is it hard nice or
awful? Did u ever get shot on the streets? Was it hard to live as a gang
member? Did u leave everything for that gang? Did u run away ever in ur
life? Was those friends that were in that gang with u are they still there
being ur friends? I'm curious i like to apolize for so many questions. I
thought about joining gangs and running away and getting locked up. I just
want to hear it from somebody who experience this stuff rather than
somebody who hasn't.
Dear Abneris,
Hi. How are you today? I read your question and hopefully my answer for it
can help. Well you ask did I regret what I did in the day and other
stuff. Well, yes I do regret about what I did in the days as far as
stealing gang-banging and messin around but I don’t dwell on it because I
can’t do nothing about it except to try to make up for it which I am doing
now. Yes, I stole, did drugs, gang-banged, and did some time for it. Did I
ever run away? Yes I did, not to get my parents mad or anything but I
needed some time alone. But I always came and told them, “I’m sorry.”
I just needed time to think, but that wasn’t the proper way of doing it. I
should have just stayed in my own room to think or be alone. Well, was
prison life for me hard? - Yes it was. I mean you do not control the
things around you and you can get seriously hurt and even killed in there.
It is very awful because you got no freedom in there. You can’t do
anything you want in there. They control your life. Prison is no place for
anyone, especially a girl. Have I ever been in a gang? - Well yes. Was it
hard? - Yes it was very hard and scary because I was always on my feet
never really knowing who or what was coming my way. Was I shot at? -
Daily. I praise God that I’m alive today and that I’m not dead. Was it
hard to live as a gang member? - Very because it was a dangerous life
style. Yes I did leave everything for my gang except my family. That was
until I met Christ and found out that He had more to offer me than a life
full of sin, hate and danger. Well, yes I left my gang and yes they are
still my friends but most of them are already dead or in jail. The point
I’m trying to get to you is that a life full of crime gangs and hate ain’t
worth it. No you should not gang bang or run away or even do drugs. There
is more to life than that. Believe in Christ for He is the way. A prison
life is no way for a person. I promise you it only leads to death or
destruction. Keep you head up for things will get better. Keep your mind
focused on the Lord and your education. Be thankful for what you got and
count each day as a blessing. Don’t turn to a lifestyle of gangbanging for
it’s not worth it.
Sincerely - T.N.

Why do you fight and kill if you got in a gang to be safe and learn love
not to fight and kill?
Marcela S.
Dear Marcela,
I never joined a gang to be loved, safe, or respected. I chose to get in a
gang because we were all just young kids having fun. But once you're a
gang member, you'll be forced to defend yourself and sooner or later, you
find yourself fighting or shooting at someone on sight because they're
doing it to you. I hope I was of some help. Take Care.
Sincerely - Jesse G.
