Convicted gang members should be put in solitary confinement for their entire sentences. That would deprive them of the thing that's most important in their lives: validation from their peers. It would also keep them from learning how to be better criminals.

Officer, that man in the blue bandana is in the red zone over here. May I shoot him please?

You gotta love his alibi. "No, no, no, you don't understand, I was trying to kill someone else, not the cop."

Blood, Crips, whoever...wipe them off the face of the earth. Can it really be that hard to do?

and this is why the police don't come around to these hoods. they'd rather see em burn.

The 18 year old had a lengthy rap sheet already? Yet another productive member of society...

Time to use the RICO act on these punks.

Thank goodness no one was hurt! One can only hope they will learn from this - but I fear, they'll only learn how to aim more accurately.

i blame the education system for the botched attempt. a lot more schooling would have made the attempt successful.

"who was not hurt and did not return fire" When an NYPD police officer doesn't return fire after being shot at, that's embarrassing. Bloods should be a little more strict on who they recruit.

Luckily for the cop, teenage gangsters have shitty aim. I'd like to say that they'd get their asses kicked in prison, but they probably have lots of fellow members watching their backs.
