Family member - gang member who is visiting..

Justintime · 2 Jul 2011 at 11:13

A bit worried here.. My cousin from California is visiting my parents next week for 2 weeks with his dad and sister. It would be fine with me except i'm expected to take them to a few places and show them around.
The main problem i have is that while hes 'ok' hes a known member of a crip set in LA and i just don't know how to deal with that.
My parents sort of know, but they don't know the extent and seriousness of his involvement and just how far these gangs go. I do know hes been shot 2 times and arrested numerous.. no idea how hes even allowed to come here.
I don't even know what i'm asking here.. just typing out me anxiety i guess lol.. How would you deal with this situation?

Let him do the talking, anything happens and you've never met him before?

Introduce him to English gang bangers to reinforce how much of a bunch of pussies they are compared to their American counterparts.

Worst my cousin is harder than your cousin thread.

touch his leg when you're sat down next to him and wink & smile, that's gang protocol apparently

Dress up in police uniform and knock on your front door at night, he will soon run away.

Not very hood is it, visiting London. Take him for tea at the Ritz, take a picture of him eating a cucumber sandwich with a cup of earl grey, threaten showing it to the Bloods...........profit.

He's not hard though is he. Anybody can shoot a gun and kill someone, doesn't make you 'hard'.
Makes you mental mind.....

Do Crips gang members really go on holiday to England with Dad and Sis?!

Have a debate about chavs vs wiggers.

Ring uk border agency and get them stopped from entering the country?

Dont look him in the eyes. They can sense fear and it makes them aggitated. Dont wear any loose clothing as they can grab and pull when they become overly aggressive. Only eat in designated areas and out of sight of the gang member as they will try to steal it and it could be bad for them, their intellect also means they could get stuck in any sweet wrappers and cause themselves harm. Most importantly of all is to make sure you dont engage them in an faeces throwing as it excites them even more and we need to get Jay Z in to calm them down again.

That should cover it.

rape is very high in american jails and prisons, ask him if he was the giver or taker?

Not the real ones.

Kick the living bejasus out of him whilst he's unaware and tell him you'll stick a screwdriver in his eye if he even looks sideways.

Derek W · 2 Jul 2011 at 11:36

gang member eh......so he's a wimp on his own. Kick him in the nuts, or even better get a little girl to do it instead

I think you've forgotten about the "getting jumped in" part of being a gang member.
