Drunk Gang Member

While walking down the Queen Street this afternoon, I was approached by a heavily intoxicated young man asking for a dollar. When I politely refused, he became abusive and proceeded to tell me he was a member of the Crips street gang.

I became concerned for my safety but I asked him calmly 'Does the Crips know you are begging for a dollar while using their name?' He walked off still hurling profanities at me.

Is this the future of our youth?
