“I’ll bet for every gang member who goes through the military experience for the sole purpose of acquiring tactics to bring back to the street there are a hundred who find the military brotherhood to be a more satisfying family than the gang. Still, low recruiting standards are worrisome.”

You have no clue of gang life and you are in denial if you believe that the military can change a gang member’s loyalty. I grew up in Los Angeles county area and raised in a gang infested neighborhood. Gang members are criminals plain and simple. The military can’t change that because they already have a brotherhood with the “homies” in the barrio.
