STOP SHOOTING! OR MY MUM WILL STOP YOU...

There have been all sorts of attempts to stop kids from getting involved with gangs, with mixed results - reformed gang leader Tookie Williams tried to talk direct to the kids to get them to find a better path; Arnold Schwarzeneger had Tookie Williams killed to try and make a similar point (or possibly because his career has taught him that killing is always an answer to try first); Boogie Down Productions sang against the gang culture.
