they want me to join a gang

[jesusgavemewings]

hi im not sure where to put this.

anyway. i have a grup of freinds. about 6 dudes. i have been hanging with them lately. they took me to this place where id never been (it was on the more bad side of town). we went into this apartment building and they took me to these guys. we smoked weed and some of them did other drugs. they were talkin about getting some gun cause they gunna shoot up the crips on the other side. all my friends said they were in and i kinda went along with it. they said we gunna meet up later this week. i dont wanna shoot up nobody but i dont want to get hurt. how do i get away.?

You need to find better friends.

You need to find better friends.
Yep this 100%. Anyone that wants a gun to kill someone is not worth being friends with. They're using you. They will snitch on you too, don't think they won't.

Yea, I suggest you get as far away from them as you can. If they are doing something illegal, and you are caught with them, then you could face some serious consequences.

how do i get away.?
This is the difficult bit:/ Do they live close to you? Can you not just say your busy and do radio silence?

[SethfromMI]

OP if you get caught doing that, your not talking about a slap on the wrist, your talking about possible life in prison. your talk about getting killed in the process. hopefully you have not gotten yourself into a hole you can't get out of (it is possible they are going to try to be forceful into getting you to participate since you know what they are doing and what they are doing is illegal)

try your best to stay completely away and if they try to harm you, call the police. to be honest, while calling the police might still be the thing to do now, doing so could put you at serious risk if they try to harm/kill you for snitching.

dear goodness though, DON'T GO WITH THEM

[Just JT]

I'd listen to SethfromMI above, he's giving legit advise. Trust me, I've had my shit ton of run ins with the law, violence, guns, drugs, running, it sucks. No other way to put it. The only option is, do do it. It's really that simple. You go, your guna regret it on one end or the other

I live with 2 of them (cause I got kicked out of my house) theyre brothers and theyre in it and if i snitch i have no where to go

Is there no way you can sort it out with your family? Anyone else you can live with?

[Just JT]

Jim how old are you?

[Gabe_Is_Confused]

For heavens sake, don't go with them. Even though I'm young, I can tell you that that type of activity is either gonna get you in jail or killed.

Avoiding them, though, is a big problem. If you feel threatened by gang members, you may be able to contact local authorities for protection.

Your friends are leading you down a dark path. I hope you can find new friends who can lead you to a brighter one.

[ethan-s]

I would call the cops immediately. That will get you out of the hole you are in, get the gang members out of your hair, and give you protection.

good news everybody. i pretended i had the flu today and stayed at their house when they left. then i anonymously called the cops and said theres gangs with guns on that side of town. i then called my dad and he said that he and my mom got back together and i could come back if i wanted. i think the 2 brothers i was staying with got arrested or something

im home and safe for now, thx 4 the advise :thumbsup:^_^

great it worked out so well for ya...I know/knew a lot of guys that weren't so lucky and are now in jail or dead...
good thing Florida gangs believe in things like being unable to shoot others up cuz of the flu wouldn't work here...if ya pulled such a stunt here ya could be sure to end up dead or at least half dead cuz they'd figured who called the cops on em....
so just maybe be a lil careful these days...just an idea.

yea but still be careful and stay away from that shit...dunno where ya live in Florida but where I used to live gangs didn't like to be fucked with, also softcore members and recruiters can be dangerous when they are pissed at ya.

but maybe this experience helps ya with the hip hop career ya wanna start?

[Just JT]

Crisis averted, family reunification, seems like the best of all came out in the end.
Do yourself a favor. Avoid all these kids the best you can, even if they are family. No good will come from any of this, and they will drag you with them whether you like it or not.

i think so...ik one of the brothers did cause his mom called me

[Fleek]

Tip the police anomonusly tell them to have a patrol sent days before and day of there to prevent anything. Get new friends. They may be feeling the same way you do.

Play on words, not being rude, just playin round is all. But consider the differense between a "raping career" and a rapping career.... :)

This seems to be resolved now, but it still fits better in this forum.

[Drewboyy]

Once you shoot someone up with a gang, you'll be talked into it again, and they wouldn't give you a choice

[ClaraWho]

So it worked out. Now just stop doing drugs.

Well I hope that you can return to your family and stay away from any gang members. I know it can be tough when gangs get their claws into you. I think that you did the right things so far. Follow and believe in the man that gave you your wings in your name on VT. Good luck to you.
