Gangs issue "kill cops" decree?

[BigVMan23]

Had a police officer I go to church with tell me Sunday some gangs have issued a "kill a cop" order, member wide across the country as either a game or some sort of initiation ritual. Said some in Memphis believed initially the killing of the PO there may have been part of that. Anyone heard this? I have heard similar things in the past but nothing recently.

There have been rumors of threats like this off and on for years. While I think that gangs are a credible threat it would be hard to tie a threat like this back to anyone.

I was gonna say, I feel like most "real" gangs probably have it out for the cops. I don't think this is anything new.

I think most gangs dislike the police but I also think that most are smart enough to not start a war with the police. When I hear threats like this I thinks it's more of the the little corner wannabes gangsters.

I know of a few MC's that have issued such orders/made statements, this including separate MC's agreeing to work together to accomplish the killing of a LEO. I've read some of their news letters too, some very interesting reading.

What's an LEO?

Law Enforcement Officer, nevermind.

Pass a law stating gangs are not allowed guns and doing so is illegal.

 

This should stop 99% of the crime then. Of course you will still have a very few disobey that law. If so put them on released probation.
