This website was designed to provide criminal activity related to gang violence, victims of gang activity, gang offenders, and to provide estimates of gang population in South Carolina. It tells us that gang violence is on the rise in South Carolina and is becoming a major social issues that is affecting numerous amounts of people and the communities they live in. The rise in gang violence is attributed to the background of the participants and the community they are from. Most inner city kids have been shown to join gangs because of the influence that the gang community puts on them. They are around gangs their whole life so it is almost inevitable for them to get caught up in that mess. I believe if these people lived in a community that had a higher income rate, school systems that were prominent, and job opportunities, there would be less of chance of them joining gangs. In worse of communities they see joining a gang as the only way out and the only chance they have of making a good amount of money for themselves.
