Gangs and Gangsters

Gangsters, also known as mobsters, are criminals that participate in gangs or gang related activities. Some gangs are very loosely organized, but others are highly organized and efficient. They are recognized by federal governments as crime syndicates. Some well known gangs are the Yakuza, Hells Angels, and the Mafia.

Who is affected by gang violence and drugs?

Drugs and violence are very serious matters. I am not trying to be a do gooder and say neither should happen, but when drugs and violence happen on a large scale, for example throughout a city this can lead to many problems.

Firstly, for children on drugs or that suffer from violence their education may be affected and thus lives be worse up later on and may continue to use drugs and even become violent.

A larger strain on public services such as the police as they have to fight the crime and lock away the drug dealers.

However, if drugs didn't happen all economies around the world may be affected. One person's wages are another, and so if you take away the drug dealer you are limiting hundreds of other people that relied on his wage for theirs.

As you can see many people are affected by drugs and violence and this is just a taster as to who is and why/how.

Hope it helped :)

suggestion/answer

Some Gangs were inadvertent. Car Clubs began in the 30's and 40's and slowly turned into gangs. Tagging Crews began spraypainting and turned into gangs. As the answer above states, protection.

Why are gangs territorial?

Humans are primates. One basic trait that we share with other primates is territorial behavior. Gangs are, at their core, social groups that feed on the needs of belonging and security of their members. Other groups threaten a gang's sense of belonging and security. A gang's "turf" is their claimed territory - an area that the gang controls. Intrusions on their sphere of control threaten their sense of security.
