The proliferation of
street gangs, as well as prison gangs within the United States and other parts of the world has led to a concern by all responsible people.
This proliferation has also led to the expansion of this web site
over the years. It is no long possible to simply use a few
pictures and words to educate those who have a need to know or who
have an interest.
It is now imperative that our concerns reach further and
that we all have some degree of gang awareness. This includes not only law enforcement and corrections personnel, but parents, teachers, other professionals, and anyone else who is concerned about their own safety and security within our communities.
Gangs OR Us,
in addition to offering the viewer all
of the standard gang identification information, offers more
information about topics not found on other web sites.
Please place your cursor
on the link
"Street Gang
Pages", found on the menu to the
left,
to
view the many links relative to street and prison gangs, parents,
teacher, law enforcement, corrections and more. The information in these
links is intended to provide you with general knowledge about the backgrounds and other aspects of some of the more familiar street and prison gangs. You will also find links to information not found on any other gang identification web page. Of special interest are the gang-related state and municipality laws and the "Gang Court" page which consists of court rulings of cases involving gang members.
