D.C. anti-gang effort: Call them 'crews' - - Breaking News, Political News & National Security News - The Washington Times

When is a gang not a gang? When it's based in the District.

D.C. officials insist on describing groups of young males as "crews," rather than gangs, even when they are held responsible for violent acts such as the wave of killings in the city last weekend. But police officials in other cities say the distinction is counterproductive.

This a one of the few times when I would justify using the word "thugs"...

How about we call them crime-challenged?

gangs-lite
ganglets

How about we call them crime-challenged?

Wouldn't that be lawfully-challenged?

 

[TennNC]

Wouldn't that be lawfully-challenged?

I stand corrected.

Unless they get caught, of course. Then perhaps they'd be criminally challenged.
