I live in Freeport and most of these idiots went to school with me. Now
it is even worse because now they are even more violent and they start
younger. I am very scared for my little brother. He is a very quiet (kind of
nerdy
![]()
) kid. He is an honors student and stays after school
almost everyday and it just scares me that these punks may want to
start trouble with him since he looks like an easy target. I have heard
that they threaten some kids with hurting them or their families if they dont
join the gang. My dad is trying to buy a house outside of Freeport. This
really upsets me because honestly they just give us Latinos a bad name.
You would be surprised to know that the majority of these kids do not
come from broken homes. The problem is that most parents work 2 or
3 jobs a day and in the process forget about the discipline they need to
instill in their children and lose control of the situation. I don't want to hear
that they joined gangs because of the environment they grew up in!!!!
Please, that's the most pathetic excuse in the book!!!!!! My parents had to
work hard, held down 2 jobs at a time, but they never lost sight of us.
My father would be up our a$$es everyday after school making sure we
were home by 3PM and the same for my brother. Our grades were always
getting checked and my mom was always meeting w/our teachers to
see how we were doing. And all this, with them not knowing that much
English!!!!!!. Some of these kids claim that they sell drugs to get out of poverty
I'm sorry, but my FH grew up extremely poor with 8 brothers and sisters
and he never resorted to anything illegal to make ends meet. That's why
there are things called JOBS people!!!!!! try looking for one. There is no
excuse for them to do such things and I despise every single one of those
gang members for bringing my community down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wish they would deport all of them. What makes me even angrier is that
some of these parents struggled to bring their children to this country and
this is how they pay them back? I worked hard to go to college and I payed
for it myself and so did my sister and I will also pay for Law School and
besides doing it for myself I did it for my parents,so that their struggle in getting
to this country would not be in vain.
