time to get tough on these wannabe gangster losers, idolizing their sad rap heroes. make laws to criminalize gang membership or affiliation – punishable by mandatory 20 years min. posession or use of gun to threaten or harm others should be met with min of 30 years mandatory prison with hard labor and medical amputation of index fingers. Using gun to shoot someone etc should be harsher punishment. Stop pampering gangsters.
