Why Are So Many Illegal Aliens In Gangs?

"Reports have indicated that 60 percent of California's Eighteenth-Street Gang are illegal aliens. This gang is reportedly ''involved in many types of criminal activities, including auto theft, carjacking, drive-by shootings, drug sales, arms trafficking, extortion, rape, murder for hire, and murder.''

Similarly, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, has reported that, ''The majority of [Ma.Sa.-Thirteen], members are foreign nationals in this country illegally.'' Newsweek has termed [Ma.Sa.-Thirteen], , which has an estimated 20,000 members in the United States, ''the most dangerous gang in America.'' It has even been alleged to be negotiating with al Qaeda to smuggle terrorists into our country.

Answer:
This is why it is important we don't have "illegal citizens" and only legal ones. They illegally come here with fake or stolen documents, so why should we be surprised that they are continuing on with their "illegal" activities.
Why are so many spoiled, white punk children of well-to-do families lining up to ACT like they are in gangs?

Come on - you can't assign human behaviors that you don't like to any one race or group.
Coz they wanna stick together
You have asked the the question. Why do you think they are?. good times and fun, no instigating. ok?
The best way to find the answer to your burning question ask one of them.
look at the history of America. every ethnic group in our country has formed a sort of gang to protect themselves. history repeats itself.
I think that they are looking for a sense of community - somewhere where they feel they belong. Not the best choice...
Lack of culture/languages and intelligent

Some part of L.A, many blocks of city control by mexican gangs they would not let black in, anyone look black be black will get shot at.
This person did not "assign human behavior that he or she didn't like to one race or group, merely relayed information from reports and "ICE"...If you disagree, take it up with them, or question his sources!!! Your logic is not logical!!!
Because illegal aliens are criminals and they want to do something when they get here, in the U.S.A., that they are good at. So they join gangs so they can continue their criminal careers.
Its that way here to, most of our gangs are made up of illegal aliens, with the head of each from Mexico, and yes most have Mexican drug trade as there roots.
There are some real idiots on here. This original poster merely posted something he read. DO NOT DISAGREE WITH HIS POSTS!! If you disagree, QUESTION HIS SOURCES!!!!! HOW STUPID CAN PEOPLE BE...and then they give a thumbs down to people that merely stated this earlier....what idiots!! I am neither for or against his posts...BTW...
MR. SIR I AGREE WITH YOU. HE SHOULD ASK THEM.
It's like the cult mentality. It's structure and rules. Something lacking in the way they were raised. It's a family to belong to, and yes to the nah sayers it's the groups that the culture comes from and then the white wannabees.
Because thats how life is the HI-POWER SOLDIERS has 300,000 members and growing ***** get out of our level this that big SOUTH SIDE EAST L.A. Better keep trucha.
Because gang members are nothing but SNIVELING LITTLE COWARDS!!!!! It makes them feel "protected" to hang out with other cowardly CRIMINALS like themselves!!!!
But, you take them one on one, they are nothing but COWARDS!!!! Sure, they feel "brave" if it's THEIR 20 gang members against ONE other person!!!
Funny how they proclaim to want a better a life, is this that better life they were seeking?
