Do Gang Injunctions Work?

[Townbizz23]

im not mad at police either. im just saying 2 things

1. govt needs to realize that they cant stop personal problems

2. do not victimize an entire community because of a couple candy ass gang bangers, its unconstitutional

I hear what you saying bro, I just don't know how personal these problems really are. I mean damn near every black and brown neighborhood in America has a gang problem to a certain degree. That's not a personal problem it's a collective one. And to the white establishment it's a black eye to a nation that claims to represent that city on a shining hill bullshit.

people think economic issues and social issues are completely different but they go hand in hand. if their were business opportunities in these place were they are injunctions, i guarantee people would rather make money than kill each other. they should come up with some kinda grant program for businesses in these types of neighborhoods and let them be tax free for 2 years. because you cant make money if you aint got none to start with and guaranteed if you dont got much money your more worried about making that 9-5 just to make it rather than getting that extra amount to take you over that hump.

Co-Sign 100%. The thing is the powers that be aren't interested in implementing businesses and redevelopment efforts that benefit people in the hood. They rather gentrify and kick all the people out the hood, then bring the changes in.

This is interesting... Makes me wonder what correlations gang injunctions and gentrification have...? You know... Are gang injunctions, in some cases, the first phase in the process...? A coded, or "secrect" instruction by city planners...?
