Federal government (Homeland Security) and local law agencies war on gang crime.

"They are charged with racketeering conspiracy; conspiracy to commit murder in aid of racketeering; and conspiracy to commit assault with a dangerous weapon in aid of racketeering, arising from their participation in the racketeering enterprise... Many of the suspects are facing life sentences. The lightest sentence for any defendant is 40 years."
“The charges ... are a result of the tireless efforts of several
law enforcement agencies who are working together to keep the community
safe,” Haag said. “For the victims and their families, there is nothing
we can do to erase their pain and sorrow. I hope, however, that these
charges begin to provide some closure for them.” Read Article.

The war at home.
Run that gang trash out of Pacifica. Once they get a foothold this town will be a cesspool in no time at all.
The police started a real street war arrestting innocent men will have severe ripple effect just watch.... The fun just begun
Innocent? From the TV news, two claimed they were innocent. But the police probably had reason to book them along with the others Hence, innocent until proven guilty, then probably guilty.
Not one was innocent. All are connected and in their own way participated. LOCK THEM UP.
Good job, PD. Tired of this gang bullshit.
It's coming our way.
I think the insensitive person that wrote this article should be shot. I am not at all saying anyone is innocent and God forbid my children had been caught in the cross fire, but live are destroyed, namely the street gang whose members were shot and killed and the title of this article is "good riddance to 2 street gangs taken down," are you kidding me. A mother lost her son to either a bullet or the system. That beings fault, maybe so, but society and the way the system is run has a lot to do with it. You don't hardly see rich kids getting involoved in the likes. This is a poor mans gang. So good riddance to you, as I am sure you will not make it as a writer, for your own ignorance.
"... lives are destroyed, namely the street gang whose members were shot and killed and the title of this article is "good riddance to 2 street gangs taken down.." AH, 343.
At the time of the 5/4/12 article, San Mateo County was busy breaking up gangs. The concern for the victims and their families is expressed by the author, highlighted by me in the reprint framing. The blog title was my choice, not to be confused by the author's title, "South San Francisco murder suspect facing death penalty". One person arrested was a Pacifican, which is probably the reason the article reprint was posted.
Keeping your children out of gangs is your job. Your job is not to be confused with your projected view that the professional journalist and the blog reprint poster are "ignorant". In other words, when you have something important and valid to say, you should be able to do that without attempting to trash other contributors. Got it?
343 Sorry, but I find your first sentence rather insensitive. You may have exaggerated for effect, but there are many who either can't or will refuse to make the distinction. Not lecturing, just saying...
It's very valid for 3:43 to say that "good riddance" is not an enlightened response to people dying, whatever the circumstances (although saying "they should be shot" is equally childish on their part).
Got it?
