To grumpy:
Oh that's wonderful, so if someone is a child molester or rapist it's okay because they're family right? Only God can judge them? So everybody should "just shut up" about what they are right?
Actions speak louder than words. Being a gangmember means you engage in actions such as terrorizing people, robbing people, murder, etc. So I'm not gonna "just shut up" because there is nothing nice to say about someone who does those type of activities. Everybody is pointing out the truth, and although it may be easier to stay blind, everybody has to face reality at some point (=

— deaf cousin, if he wasnt a criminal, then why was he in a gang?
"from all the 94 criminals"
That says a lot about the people he hung out with.
