... an area bounded by Seven and Eight Mile roads and Gratiot Avenue and Kelly Road. The Seven Mile Bloods gang has claimed this area as its territory, records show, and refers to it as the “Red Zone” or “4-8-2-0-Die” in some of its rap lyrics.

Federal prosecutors allege that Seven Mile Bloods is in an active gang war with an alliance of other gangs, including Hustle Boys, East Warren, Six Mile Chedda Ave., Gutta Boys, Maxout 220, BossHogs and Hustle.

But it is not like just anybody gets picked on. Nor is it the same group of people that pick on people. Is it that we gang up on people or is it that each of us reach their own personal limit and acts accordingly?

There are certain times when boundaries get crossed and rules get broken. But there are also the rules of sock puppetry - we are almost always on guard against those who have violated those rules and cast down into GC and SH.

It seems to me that anytime somebody gets ganged up on, they get the chance to back off and reconsider what they are doing. And then there are those that don't. They violate the informal hierarchy, react badly to it, and then double down with whatever they are doing.

Are we just culling the heard?
People pay thousands of dollars for sociology degrees, hell you could be the professor.
