<p>“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.”</p>
<p>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.</p>
