The Business of Gangs & Violent Crime in 2006 The recent talk of "reverse onus" bail is a great mechanism to assist in the continued attempts to reduce the violence plaguing our streets. Regardless as to geographic locations to the violence, from the streets of South Central L.A. to suburban Vancouver or Younge Street in Toronto, many factors remain the same. The patterns and trends continue to prove that the violence will grow. We see the odd "true" reduction however, the deaths and injuries due to violent crime will continue. Projections by End Youth Violence for 2006 predict a record number of violent crimes and murders will happen this year on Canadian and American streets. This will be true for not only big cities but also in small communities. Areas of violence prevention need to be addressed regionally in addition to provincial and federal programs. Certain dynamics exist in contributing to violence in some regions which defy factors in other regions. These include the factor of poverty in Toronto and L.A. where that is not as high a factor in the Vancouver area violence. Status and positioning in the peer hierarchy are higher on the list in Vancouver coupled with higher levels of small gangs with poor organization and internal codes of conduct.As these smaller gangs in all areas struggle to gain market share, they try to eliminate the competition. Much like business, you have more and more people trying to gain market control and when you have gangs forge together it is not much different from mergers and acquisitions. Corporations and businesses are always trying to beat out the other. The difference being the fact that most corporations will operate inside of the law and follow a code of conduct. Further in legitimate business, the products fall within the scope of legality and thus have the civil courts to reinforce the rules of play. In the world of drug and gang business, they have their own process of violence to deal with each other and the criminal courts when someone is caught but the code of silence is stronger as going to prison for many gangsters is again a level of status in addition to the fact that the courts are seen as to lenient on the criminals. Let s face the fact that crime pays. Judges, Lawyers, parole officers, prison guards and so many others rely on criminals as a primary source of income. The fact that many get rich through the criminal justice system. If lawyers did not fight for the rights of the criminals and showed more compassion for victims, they would have less repeat business and what benefit would this be to them? Let s face it, if the general public does not take a stand on the continued and malicious twisting of the laws by lawyers to protect their clients when there is no doubt of guilt, they get the guilty released because of a small and insignificant loophole which is clearly against the obvious intended interpretation of the spirit of each law. When we want to transfer people from a lower paid job to a higher paid trade or career, we offer incentives and training. Corporations and business make it financially attractive to make the change.
