Gangs provide a support system, a feeling of community, and a sense of purpose for many young people. Unfortunately, most of these gangs use violence and crime to achieve their goals, and they are taking over communities all over America. If your community is not a gang-infested war zone yet, you should consider yourself to be very fortunate. If nothing is done about this, the violence and the crime that is fueled by these gangs will continue to spread, and eventually nearly every single community in the United States will be affected by it.
Lets take a closer look at some of the large cities all over America that are degenerating into gang-infested war zones
With respect, Austin is not safe. Some neighborhoods are safer than others, but there is a huge infestation of violent narcotraficante honchos there, as well as a big pipeline of drugs running up I-35, not to mention the low lifes and scum hippie trash that just hang out and try to sponge off others. And there is a large poor ethnic population, indigenous, as well as illegal alien, preying off the pockets of prosperity. Finally, the city is so infested with liberal nut cases, Freedom, Life, and Marriage are not popular notions among the self appointed uber-liberal intelligencia.
Don’t forget that Rousseau fed the newly emerging social contract theory to Robespierre. Then Robespierre perverted it into virtuous citizens and bad citizens, the latter of who were disarmed and guillotined for failing to support the “revolution”. Austin has its fair share of Robespierres. I know one personally, a relative of mine. Those people are truly sick there, and dangerous. Fortunately Austin is surrounded by normal Texas and the lunatics are kept in check.
The cities listed were armpits 40 years ago. I can’t believe Atlanta hasn’t made the list yet and Miami.

Historically, large concentrations of unemployed young males is a recipe for disaster.
People with nothing to lose have nothing to gain from playing by the rules.

I grew up in the Bronx, live in Austin and work East Austin at night.
East Austin is Kindergarten compared to the Bronx.
