Yeah, unfortunately I have....and got a bruised face and hand out of it.
Me and some friends were walking around late at night (we also had a couple of drinks), we were walking home to a friend's house to call it a night. We then meet up with someone we recognized, and we started to talk. Little did we know he was a part of a gang, but since he recognized us, he really didn't do anything.

It was then when his other gang members came by, and he changed...a lot. They started to get all mouthy, and they were walking away when my friend made the biggest mistake: calling them down. So they got angry, and came running back at us. I panicked then started to back off, they didn't recognize me at first, but when I saw them mess with one of my friends I stepped in, then they surrounded me and threatened to beat the crap out of me if I didn't give them my jacket (which was nothing but a cheap zip-up). But I stood my ground when someone took a swing at me and hit me hit in the cheek. I was down and got kicked in the face (which my hands were covering). All I remember is somene picking me up and telling me to run, so me and one of my friends ran and hid for a bit. It was quite scary because I lost the rest of my other friends and I had no idea what happened to them. But after awhile we found them, apparently someone stopped them and threatened with a bebe gun (lawl). But yeah....note to self: keep mouth shut when gang members are angry...

jeez you got it rough... at least they didnt break your bones, if i were hit in the jaw... my whole mouth would *** up since i have braces:(

Okay guys, my heart stopped pounding a few minutes ago, but I'd like to get this out of my system. So today, I was in the neighborhood park just talking to my friends and all of a sudden, I saw these several hoodlums riding their bikes towards our clean neighborhood. Judging by how they took one side of the street on their bikes really stirred up my stomach because people honked at em for doing that. They rode towards me and my friends saying "sup". I was calmed for a minute as they left... but the second time they came up to us, they were asking for my friend's bike. "Yo man... I like that shiny silver and blue bike. Give me the bike and we'll leave." One of my friend said "Don't steal his bike." and one of the hoodlums said "shut the f up." I panicked, stood up, and started to walk away because I'm just a kid and stuff. As I took a few steps the opposite direction, one of the other hoodlums said "get back here and sit down dawg" I could feel their eyes staring dead at me. I started pacing faster to the nearest person I could find. Luckily, I found this random guy and begged him to call the cops on the hoodlums trying to steal my friend's bike. The minute I pointed at the direction of the hoodlums... they left, riding their bikes and staring at me. This was the first time I ever encountered a hoodlum close enough to getting mugged, but i'm kind of paranoid about giong outside. Thanksto those who read and commented. Though I'm pretty sure I had it easy :?

edit: I live in Houston, TX. Which isn't the worst... but isn't the best cities to live in.

Gangs join the military, obtaining about weapons and tactics to take down their enemies.

I've always thought about joining my military, but now i'm kind of worried about getting shot by my own team. What are your reactions to this video?

in spider man 3, tobey's hair cut looks so much similar to leon from resident evil 4.
