    Yeah. The high school I worked in had 107hoovas, which is a group of Crips. Pretty sure we had Bloods too, but the hoovas were the ones defacing my desks. Also worked with some South Side Locos.

    Kid walked out of my chemistry once to go jump someone in the bathroom, because they ignored gang lines when redrawing the district and put rival gangs in the same high school. He only got one day of suspension, and they threw away the write up I gave him for walking out because he also got written up for the “beating the shit out of someone in the bathroom” thing and they didn’t want to “punish him twice for the same incident”.

    Edit: I just googled that kids name. He died 2 years after I knew him. Fuck. He was smart, he was capable, he just made god awful decisions.
