Parents Fight Over Which Gang Toddler Should Join
http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/15851207/detail.html

"His girlfriend told police that they had been arguing about the upbringing of their son and which gang he should belong to. The teen mother, who is black, is a member of the Crips. Manzanares is Hispanic and belongs to the Westside Ballers gang, the woman said."

5. It does amaze me this is not an "Onion" article
Or a silly movie.

My wife called it a modern day "Romeo & Juliet".

4. Once a Jet always a Jet
There's only one way out...the grave.

Or missing a pirouette. That's unforgivable.

6. *sigh* Guys it's the same as the religion
If a Jewish man and a Christian woman have a baby then the baby takes the religion of the mother.
:eyes:

Kids these days.

8. Maybe the situation is similar to kids with divorced parents
Two Christmases, two birthdays, two initiation ceremonies, two sets of gang tats.

7. Most likely the kid will end up gangbanging only on Christmas and Easter
much like many offspring of mixed-religion marriages. :-)
