Now lets talk politics. We have the Republican (GOP Set) and the Democrat (DNC Set) parties. The intent of this blog is not to endorse one political party or the other, it is to break down the gang mentality that exists in American politics. The interesting thing is that the politically minded, who affiliate themselves with these "political" gangs, see street gangs and their members as primitive social organizations. As political affiliates they are far more advanced and civil minded . . . Really? When it comes down to carrying out their "set's" objectives, there does not seem to be much of an intellectual difference.In America there appears to be such a loyalty to the parties, instead of the principles, that most party affiliates will look over the principles to achieve the interest of the party with which they belong. Most democrats watch the debates, not to see whose principles they agree with, but to see who they are going to vote for as a democrat; and republicans do the same. On the ballad they should have 2 boxes. One should say "republican" and the other should say "democrat." This would save a lot of time and money spent on debates and campaigning.
Above is a map of America. Strategists have divided the country into counties and then color coded those counties to match the party affiliation. In politics there are the "red states" and the "blue states," or we could call them, the "crip states" and the "blood states." Then you have "undecided states." These states aren't truly undecided, they are just states where the republican affiliates and democrat affiliates are more or less in even numbers. Just like many American inner-cities, you have gang neighborhoods that are mostly controlled by one gang or set, then you have other neighborhoods that are split and serve as fighting grounds for the different gangs. In neighborhoods where several gangs exist, the smaller gangs will unite or get adopted into larger gangs until over time there are only 2 rival gangs for that area. It is not the best managed or policy correct gang that takes these neighborhoods, instead it is whichever gang has the most forceful presence.Below is a gang territory map of a Los Angeles neighborhood. Gang task force strategists have devided the neighborhood into areas and then color coded those areas to match the gang affiliation. Does it look familiar?
Survival in these fighting grounds depends on your gang affiliation, instead of your personal integrity or character. A "third party" gang is usually destroyed or run out by the larger gangs fighting for that "office." This is not to say that this smaller "third party" gang would not be as ruthless and destructive as the existing gangs.This pretty much breaks down the party system that is the American government. Most party affiliates truly want to improve their neighborhoods, but they are using a rivalry system that goes back before the United States and Verona, all the way to the beginning of time. Then there are some party affiliates who aggressively attempt to divide and create loyalties that are just as dangerous and deadly as street gangs. It could be said that aggressive political party policies are responsible for far more death and violence than the gang brawls and drive-bys that play out in the counties, suburbs, towns and cities in America. So it should come as no surprise that street gangs emulate and impose the same form of government and politics that they exist under in America. Imitation is the best form of flattery.
IN CLOSING. NO MATTER WHAT; POLITICAL PARTY, SOCIAL ORGANIZATION OR STREET GROUP AN INDIVIDUAL AFFILIATES WITH, IT IS NOT JUSTIFIABLE TO FEEL HATRED, ANIMOSITY OR DISDAIN TOWARDS THAT INDIVIDUAL. IF OUR AFFILIATIONS COMPEL US TO DIVIDE OURSELVES INSTEAD OF CREATING UNITY, WE NEED TO RETHINK THOSE AFFILIATIONS.
