Please don't be part of that problem by doing something that will gain you the fear of others temporarily but rob you of your youth in the long run.  Who wants to be remembered as another confused kid that's dead or in jail because of doing something pointless. If you want to act according to a code and prove your a badass, just take care of your mother and siblings, that's the beginning of making your community better.

K-town is a neighborhood full of beautiful people, however there is the problem of gangs and youth that think the only way they can prove their strength is through violence, rather than through sharing talent and building something useful and meaningful to the community.

@RyanBWylie that's true, nicely said...sometimes it's the parents fault bc there are those parents in every ethnical backrounds (not all) that let their kids be in the streets all hours of the day, and not be involved in their kids school & life so it leads to drugs and gangs sadly .
