Death Records Now

Im a little worried about my son. We live in Compton California which is notorious for gang activites and homicides, and I have been suspecting that he is affiliated with a Blood gang. He is friends with a kid whose father worked with Suge Knight (Im assuming you know who that is) back in the 90’s when Death Row Records was big. So this alone has alarmed me. I know my son isnt a bad person and I doubt he would do anything as far as taking someone’s life, but I have noticed something else that alarmed me.

He has always been good in school, particulary on assignments about history. He really enjoys reading and researching about people like Al Capone and people like that. So I know he is into reading history of this sort of thing.

But for the last couple of weeks I have been seeing that he is reading a lot about murderers. Jack the Ripper is someone he reads a lot about. And more recently he has really been reading a lot about the Columbine Massacre.

If my son was going to be involved in any type of criminal activity, Im positive in would be gang activity (not saying I condone it) and I am 100% sure he would never think of doing anything like what he is reading about.

But I am just wondering if living in a city where there is so many murders, multiple murders just about ever week, is that something that is increasing his interest on this type of thing? And could there be any type of connection at all as to why is he reading so much about these things?

Your son is heading for trouble if he is with any gang. I did a google search on average age of gange members. Only approx 13% of gang members are 24 or over. The rest are essentially children. Be aware that this doens’t mean they all grow up and get out of it. The majority of them just don’t live beyond 24.

The best thing you can do is take your son and move far away from the gang he is active in. You will probably need to get some professionals to talk to him so he doesn’t seek out more of the same kind of people to hang with.

One word of caution, he can’t just disengage himself and stay in the same community. It doesn’t work like that. I lived in a small town, My 15 year old son was telling me they were forming a neighborhood gang… As we discussed it further he told me they named themselves WSC. Well I knew that was a major gang and told my son about it. He decided he didn’t want to participate afterall. 3 days later I was having to make funeral arrangements for my son.

Please act as quickly and as safely for your son as possible. This isn’t something to play with.
