Revenge

  • Activities include intimidation and extortion, vandalism, theft, assault, swarming, drug trafficking, stabbings, shootings and sometimes murder.
  • Members may wear certain kinds of colors of clothing in very specific ways and/or use special hand signals, nicknames or symbols.

So what that means is that when some one does something wrong, instead of teaching them the right way to do something, you try to show them through force, or revenge.

When someone does something you dont like, we should deal with it through the law and punish them through time in jail.

A system of criminal justice based on the punishment of offenders rather than on rehabilitation.
