#3 Historically most ethnic gangs have not come from the immigrants themselves, but from their children (occassionally) or grandchildren (more common), and as such they are citizens and cannot be sent 'home'. This pattern may be changing as the shear number of immigrants and porosity of borders increases.

#4 20-30 out of 10,000 is not what I'd call an alarming percentage. Plus it sounds like they have the majority of the Kurdish community on their backs. They'll never quash out all the rats, but they sound like they don't want the bad press.

#5 Yes, bigjim, but IT'S AN EPIDEMIC according to the MSM. Much like yesterday's "news" that gangs are rampant in the military, when the numbers just don't show a big trend.

Maybe these guys were p!ssed off at the lack of a country music career. Personally, I'm a lot more worried about illegal immigrants and the coming of gangs in Hispanic areas than the Kurds.

#6 "Kurdish gangs emerge in Nashville"

I wonder if they formed any bluegrass bands yet.

#7 My brother lives in Nashville and has some dealings with members of the Kurdish community there (soccer league, I believe), and he says theres no more grateful-to-be-in-America immigrant community to be found. As in any community you're going to have bad apples - especially among young males. And gang culture has a twisted self-perpetuating dynamic of its own: boys are pressured to join and have to do bad stuff to get in, at which point they're tainted if they stay and marked for retribution if they leave.

#10 And what would Hank Williams say about all this?
