The only way to get out of these gangs is to die. That mentality is what’s ruining the kids.

That's why they prey on kids that have no place to go and nobody to trust.

I believe it also goes to the basic mentality. My father was on his own at 16, both parents died. He was then raised on the streets in Los Angeles. I learned a lot from the streets of Los Angeles, but neither of us fell for the trap of those gangs. I believe it goes back to the families of these kids.
