Do they scare you?

Gangs i mean!

I got up this morning and was doing my own thing, my uncle was inside (he lives in our sleepout) and this red car drives past super slow.. then reverses and pulls up our drive, and its full of scary looking people, my uncle went out and they said they were looking for number 42, we are 48 and my uncle pointed down the road and came back inside. 5 minutes later they come back all get out of the car, and heres 4 big patched members standing on our front lawn! They go into my sisters room, and both my uncle and i just looked at each other furious!!

I dragged my sister outside and let rip! Quietly of course!
She proceeded to tell me she didnt know them and was trying to get them to leave.

Now im not scared of alot, but all i could think of was the toddler up north that was shot by gang members and died!

Im moving. Iv found a lovely lady whos going to give us her 3 bedroom house when her tenants move next month if we like it. I cant wait to get out of here!!

My sister has never done or been involved in anything like this before!

I was crapping myself! Im not usually scared, but this did scare me.

Doesnt help my sister told them to F off, in those words and the girls they were with were yelling and swearing and stuff. I was about ready to call the police!!

She has a sliding door on her room that opens onto the driveway.
It really did scare me as they arent friendly and look at you like they want to intimidate you.
She said she doesnt know them at all but a girl that stayed here last night with her said she kind of knows them, they just know where my sister lives. Which happens to be where im living too!

Iv had enough though, this is the last straw. Im moving.

I tried to tell her exactly what they are like but she thinks she knows better than me. Hmmmm 18 year olds!

That would be scary good on you for moving Kandice. Kylah doesn't need to be around that sort of stuff.

In a way they do, and in ways they don't.

Good on you for moving thou.

They don't bother me, in fact I had a rather good run in with a some black power members once, they were very polite and very helpful.

I can't say I'd want them turning up and forcing their way into my house though!

They scare the crap out of me. I dated (in my stupid youth) a guy who was involved in a gang. I ended up one night at this house in Island Bay with everyone sitting round doing drugs and the cops turned up. My life flashed before my eyes and I reliased that this is not me. We broke up the next day. It makes me who I am today but I still find gangs and members very very scary.

If they're out and about on the street doing "normal" everyday things then that's ok, we use to live down the road from the main MM pad and I'd always see the boys out.....going for runs! lolz, they were pretty good though, they looked out for the community so to speak.
My sisters have all been involved in that kind of life, two of them are no longer in that lifestyle, haven't been for many years now, one on the otherhand still associates with them, which cuts me to pieces as she's now a P addict, is a neglectful mother (my parents have been looking after her oldest two for several years...but now all three of the kids live with my other older sister), and at aged 30 thinks she's still 18. She's always been a troublesome person, very reactive...always been associated with that type of life. So sad...and extremely scary as we know a lot of stuff have happened to her (like being placed on the block...if any of you know what that means). Neosha that is soooo gruelly what happens to people who want to leave these gangs. I'm sure not all are like that but man, it's definitely not something to be caught up in. I've had no trouble with the gangs I've lived around...when I was little, cos they all respected my dad (just your ordinary secondary school teacher!).

Anywho would definitely be angry and scared with random gangers coming into your house!. Good on ya for making the move!
