Stop gangs, togetherTo the Editor:There are too many gangs and too much gang violence in society today. If we stop gang activity more kids would be in school, getting their education, which would mean better jobs for them and fewer problems for society.Everybody needs to come together to solve this problem. First of all, parents need to talk to their kids, and really be a part of their lives, to influence and encourage them to stay away from gangs. The kids themselves need to stay away and not be influenced by the wrong activity. If the parents are part of their children’s lives, then the kids wouldn’t feel the need to join a gang, when they have their family at home.Gun sellers need to stop thinking just about money, stop selling guns to minors, on the black market or on the internet, for this plan to work. If the gang members have fewer guns then violence will be reduced.Innocent people are getting shot for wearing the wrong color on the wrong part of town. What will happen next.Antonio MagdalenoSanta Paula
