Re: West Midlands Police report drop in street gangs


	Quote: Former policeman Kirk Dawes, who runs support group the Centre for Conflict Transformation, said: "It's very difficult to count gangs as many young people don't admit they are in one. "There is no legal definition of a gang, which is why it can be changed like it has been.

I was in a gang, but more of a loose definition, oh and we were not destructive at all. I suspect that most of these gangs are simply just groups of kids who are loosely affiliated, but would not be a gang in the criminal sense.

Re: West Midlands Police report drop in street gangs

Exactly. Being in a gang isn't necessarily something bad. Only when the gang is involved in criminal activity is it a problem.
