Gangs have a big affect on society. They affect public saftey, and community image. In 2010 there was an estimated 29,400 gangs and 756,000 gang members throughout 3,500 jurisdictions across the United States. Gang-related homicides increased more than 10 percent from 2009 in cities with populations of more than 100,000. Highly populated areas accounted for the vast majority of gang-related homicides nationally. Gang members were less likely to migrate to smaller areas and had most likely migrated for social, not illegitimate, reasons.
What is one way we could get the streets clean of gangs?
