What is your definition of a "gang."

(in the US) Because the Caucasian race is the numerically largest racial group in the country it is quite likely that Caucasians have the largest NUMERICAL gang presence.

HOWEVER - expressed as a percentage of their representation in the US population as a whole, the other racial/ethnic gangs (Asian/Hispanic/Black) would have to be looked at to see which numbers are higher.

There is no one specific race that has more gang members, as gang membership can be found among individuals of all races and ethnicities. Membership may vary based on geographic location, socioeconomic factors, and other contextual influences. It is important to focus on addressing the root causes of gang involvement, rather than attributing it to any particular race.

Are There White blood gang members?

Unfortunately, yes there are. Gangs always love it when a "white boy" joins because they can exploit them for free rides, free '40s', get them to sling for them, etc... and then finally once they've used them up leave them holding the bag as jail cover. When the "white boy" gets to prison, after being left holding the bag, they quickly discover that prison is segregated by race and they are on the wrong side of everything. From A-to-Z it's all bad.

Are the Ms 13 gang racists?

Sure there is racism of all kinds, a white guy is unlikely to get into some gangs whose members are Latino or African American, and vice versa. A gang is made up of one type of race usually. It is very rare for a black guy to be in a Mexican gang but it happens or a white guy in a black gang but things happen. And gangs usually fight people of their own race for more territory. But as more and more people join gangs they tend to fight different races.
