Postcode gangs on Five

As part of channel Five's 10-year birthday celebrations, 10-year-olds from Headliners were asked to make a news report on an issue they wanted to see covered. Three young reporters from Hackney decided to look at the problems of gang violence; particularly where gangs are divided by postcode districts.

GANG MEMBERS THAT INTIMIDATE AND BULLY INNOCENT PEOPLE ARE SCUMBAGS.

THEY CALL PEOPLE THAT AIN'T IN GANGS PUSSIES, BUT ONLY A PUSSY JOINS A GANG BECAUSE THEIR SCARED.

and why the fuck do they rob POOR people!?

I see you still doe fam..race wars dont go on here as much-not that many latinos, except for a few places, mainly Elephant & Castle which is blacked out 2. I understand you join a gang for protection but I also understand that it is human nature that people miss the loop and are faced with certain predicaments-I was only aserting dat lats were as susceptible 2fear as the next man, it aint about showing off-i aint eva been 2 prison.I cud regale U with tales of how i got away several times doe >=)

[nycolombian91]

u were talkin about latinos who dont join a gang. only thing is every latino joins a gang once there in jail cuz u have 2 for protection. that goes for whites and blacks to. idk what your talkin about black concious gangs but every gang every race is always havin wars in jail either allies or not. maybe is different in london but jails in USA are always in race wars

[GAkemetKiNg]

dont confuse black people for black conscious people..'black' people have far more in common with white racist supremacists than they do with black CONSCIOUS people. 'Conscious' making all the difference which, had you understood it, would have halted your hasty reply. Im from the London anyway, so America only interest me as it relates to my relatives there...most of the prison shit I either had to study, read about or heard from people who lived it..I can count the 'movies' Ive seen on my hand

[GAkemetKiNg]

you would know what im talking about..and blacks do fight in jail..what movie would i be watching that showed otherwise? you tell me..i talked about there BEING 'black CONSCIOUS gangs' that didnt fight and still held it up in that they made alliances with other gangs..youd have to show me what movie i got that from too..

your problem is youre too fast.

[GAkemetKiNg]

first of all im talkin about people in general and just happened to reference latinos..join a gang even if you were the sole latino in a fully white or black prison? my post was not exclusive to latinos so dont come and tell me about movies and that. got better shit to do than watch movies all day long about a bunch of latinos, especially since when i turn on the tv they claim 'fuck niggers'. the fact is you aint got a clue if i know what im talkin about or not; if you read the rest of my shit

[nycolombian91]

lol. first of all fam latino members who arent part of surenos or MS 13 have no choice but to join in prison and that goes for every latino. you wont find a latino in jail whos not gang affiliated. second blacks do fight in jail. 3rd stop watchin gangster movies udk wut ur talkin about.

[jameswills19]

yh thats true

[JesusCommando]

It's good to see how switched on these kids are but it's pish that they're surrounded by bullshit.

[FuryzPKz]

L's Up!!!!

LF LF LF LF LF

lol

[GAkemetKiNg]

latino members who arent part of surenos or MS13 break down just the same. If you have a following and a gang and hold your own corner, you survive. You got black consciousness gangs in american prisons that dont really fight and nothing happens to them; its all about politics, not gulliness. If Larry James' situation showed us something, it was that nobody is untouchable..just because you mention ms13, ms13 is a gang..any one of those members in a non ms13 prison would suffer; its all relative.

[poomon99]

in 5 years time atleast half ov them will be involved in crine or gangs

[jrealio]

Is that the girl that got killed in north london? dannielle?

Hes just dumb,every guy tries to front,its wat goes on behind closed doors

[jrealio]

Trust me,grown men who are convicted of murder act like a bigman infront of ppl but behind closed doors,bare duppy business is going on which is gettin them shook.

send these little boys to a real prison full of ms13 and surenos and they will find out what real fear is.They wudnt last

[BlackBritian]

but a girl my lil bro knew was killed by her man he laughed in court wen sentenced nd every1 time e had to go court they burnt over her grave destroyed stuff and vandalized her home. he was flirtin wid the girls friend in court this guy was tellin evry1 how e killed her how he hit her on the head so hard till e heard her skull crak stabed her up he did it cause she said she was pregnant. now i dunno if that guys fuked in the head but he seriously dont care he got 13 years I know

[BlackBritian]

Yh our prisons aint gay so is gd

now let me tell you dis all 8 of them boys do not give a shiiit i remeber wen we heard of the boy who got killed in college every1 laugh so u really think his killeers giv a shit lol please these fools think they got stripes now theys bee out in 8 years thinking they are top Gs and of course idiots will giv dese people that respect. but ur true in their cells they cud b crying nd shit

[BlackBritian]

i know 10 convicted murderers

6 of them are still in jail for manslaughter of one boy and atemptive murder of another boy

4 of them got 13 years 2 of them got 7 years

2 were released years ago for manslaughter of their friend by accident they did 2 years each

these twins i grew up with killed a person dont know where they are now or anything bout them

[jrealio]

Im guessing you dont know anybody that has killed.They put on a front,but when they're in their cells,alone,thats when they break down,thats when they grow up and realise wat they did was wrong.The only thing that gets them through is the fact they got tvs n get to socialise n educate themselves in prison...prison aint shit in the uk...send these lil pussies to a proper prison

[jrealio]

you really think these boys are scared of gangs? gimmie a break,gangs are immature little street rats who got nothing better to do than jam on road worryin about whos screwing them,theres nothing to fear..The point of them carrying a weopen is coz they dnt wanna die,send them to iraq and they will be shittin themselves.half of these gang members come from good families but just happen to live on a council estate,send them to a real ghetto lyk iraq n they will realise how gd they got it
