I think the way some people feel about their guns is how we feel about our phones. That really helped me open up in compassion. I don't know very much about a gang culture, and i haven't read em his books, but i really want to. But what i would imagine, too, is that the people who were in gangs, probably of them joined, either on a conscious or, you know, unconscious level, in search of like, a family of protectors. It's not running to something, it's running from something. There's just a complete lack of dignity and love and attention and all that stuff.
