A Viewer Writes: Gang Signs

Sir Can you or your reader's identify these hand signs in the this photo of Snow Hill High School grads (in Friday's Daily Rag) as gang signs or are these country wanna be's?

They look like the gun signs younger kids use.

They all look like thugs in this picture - even teh white guy and the girl!

They aren't gang signs but do not underestimate those you call wannabe's. They are the ones who think they have something to prove. They will do extreme things to prove themselves. I don't think these guys are anything other than graduates.

Wow!!! Peace signs are gang signs?? and let me guess thugs right.. this eastern shore ideology is terrible

I just see happy kids. Almost in a pointing gesture like ....hey. Are you the white Al sharpton? This was a senseless post.

You stupid ignorant racist jerks. They're just kids, for God's sake. They're kids and they're waving for a photo. Just because they're black doesn't mean they're in a gang. The level of stupidity on this board is off the charts. Should I assume you're a poor uneducated meth-head who lives in a trailer park just because you're white?

Those don't look like actual gang signs. But they are NOT peace signs.

They aren't waving for a photo, the three are simulating "gang signs" for "fun", that's all.

Good grief...the one finger point is not a gun pointing, although i am sure that is a fun assumption for you guys. It is used when taking a picture with another person that you have high respect or appreciation for. Never used for an enemy, only friends. Think about it...who would point a gun at a group of friends that you are taking pictures with while smiling and happy. Not everything youth s do is related to gang activity. Negativity sucks!

No. You can assume my kids have a father and hard working parents because I'm white. I agree with you. But if your gonna stereotype whites, do it right. This is the kinda crap that divides us.

They Are Gangbangers! Clearly making a "K" and a "G" that sign is linked to the Klej Grange Crew. A violent down-county gang that drives around in Sharonda's 4-door Ford Taurus that she got when her Mom-Mom passed. The KGC is baaad, don't mess with them!

This has to be a joke right? Neither of these young men are holding anything remotely resembling a gang sign. You have taken what is supposed to be one of the most happy and gratifying days of these young men's lives and tarnished it. Do you people just get off on bullying or what?

I myself have just a few things to say to these young men. congratulations on your graduation. Don't let these bullies ruin your day. You have a acomplished something that in today's world gets harder and harder to do each year that goes by. Keep your heads up and be proud.

The writer just wanted his full day of fame. He wants the masses to get there hate on for the day. You people are giving him/her exactly what they want. This is just a picture of kids have fun after graduation.

Gang signs. the two top left are crips, two bottom right are bloods. Those signs mean they are getting together tonight to play the knock out game on Baltimore cops.
Its no wonder the media is so successful at keeping us divided when you go to a "tea party" site and see all the racist hick comments that MsNBC told liberals would be here. Bunch of insecure whites scared of everything. If they were giving each other rabbit ears you idiots would say "gang signs! Lock your doors, buy ammo, hide your children". I find it pathetic. They are young kids excited about graduation and just because you don't understand what they are doing doesn't mean you should pull a fire alarm. Remember who the real enemy is because I have never had a black person wrong me, but the government has stolen from me every single day since I turned 18.

11:53 LOL to the max.

The white guy is doing thumbs up. The guy behind the girl is giving her rabbit ears. the guy on the left is pointing at the girl and the girl is pointing back at the guy. Just give it a rest.

Where is the "girl" that you guys are referring to? All that I see is "hore" in the upper left-hand side of the photo.

Why do people say whanab thugs or gang. If a group are robbing murdering selling drugs and flashing known gang signs they are a gangster! Not saying they are above but I hear this all the time.

Damn right! Wicomico co. Sheriff's office has the biggest most violent gang bangers. And they're typically the same. Cowards until their crew shows up!
