Got a bullet-proof vest? this reporter says St. Louis is as bad as Bagdahd.

At any rate, the message is, snitch.

80 gangs in the area, all African-American, Mexican, or Bosnian.

this reporter wasn't afraid to snitch, he's not from there.

so we got one killing on tape, admittedly, one interviewee says he got 5 thousand dollatrs to shoot somebody.
who wouldn't do it?

Then-- the amicable, gang CPR. If you didn't know your heart was there... gang CPR might could find it, your heart. This program helps gang members resuscitate... "see me with a job... two weeks to get a 300 dollar check, but see I'm used to fast money." So it's hard, so hard to wait on that minimum wage job check. I feel ya.

quotes from law enforcement:

"All the law enforcement in the world won't change a thing."

"We need to provide jobs, recreational training, (and jobs)."

In the end, shocking statistics for a rural community.

I'm surprised they trusted this Maine-based producer, did he offer the peeps lobster or something?

I'm certain he just has that kind of renegade attitude from the northeast that nodoby understands.

I didn't hear one mention of drugs, so I'm guessing it's all just territorial.
