the movie be present in order to educate the public on the 40 year gang epidemic amongst the black youth of our los angeles society . it be and in short and a failure . the inability to show the true cause of gang ( i. e. the gangster themselves ) be flabbergast . yes and they be able to eloquently throw around the term disenfranchise and yet have no clue a to why these character choose the street . it boil down to this represent money and power and and ( perceive ) respect . nothing more . racism do not start this problem . slavery do not start this problem . their absentee father do not start this problem . there be an easy and high school level word that can describe gang perfectly . that word be opportunism . they bring this movie forward to an extremely gullible and impressionable public who believe whatever they see on tv and they fail to show these black gangster for what they truly be represent professional victim . nothing be my fault . no accountability . it the white man fault and it the cub scout fault and it the policeman fault . the i do not create this and it be create for me idea be tire and hackneyed . black people be disproportionately represent in prison . 28 % . perhaps if they decide to stop committing crime in this state and the number might even out . why can not we have a documentary that simply report the fact and with no agenda . why must we perpetuate this myth that the black man can do no wrong . that and somehow and it someone else fault . i watch this movie in order to gain a deep perspective when it come to the gang culture . instead i just find myself wad in the deep than usual b. s. congratulation and thanks a bunch . my opinion of ( and my hope for ) the black youth of l. a. have officially falter .
