Yeah, because all the various bans on "gang-related clothing" have worked so well throughout the past few decades. Alternatively, they could just pray, in order to try and influence God's great plan.

Why so snarkastically dismissve about this?

you don't "negate gang violence", you "stop gang violence".

a "whooping eight deaths"?

"the majority of these deaths were in youth?" they were in youth? really?

"morbid boom"?

I used to frequent a hip-hop nitespot 10 years ago called the Sunset Club. The violence got so bad that the owners started a dress code (no sneakers, no clothes with logos, shirts had to be tucked in, no excessivly baggy jeans, etc). The amount of Hennessy-induced fistfights did not decrease in any noticable way; Sunset Club closed it's doors shortly after. Forcing a dress code does not do shit.

LIKE HABITS AND ROMAN COLLARS?

Ok, and just what the fuck is "gang attire" suppose to entail, huh?

Goddamn idiot god-men, never helpful!

Gang attire would be clothing and accessories consistently worn by gang members with the intention to represent their membership.

While these particular men-of-god are not particularly bright in their current efforts to abate the amount of violence existing within their communities, this may be due to the fact that a good flock is a scared flock.

Porky's 3?
