Why can't these gangs really try and get on with each other, do they have to carry on against each other, even when they are on holiday?

One has to ask why would a 19 year old a male model who is studying towards an Economics degree at Northampton University, need to be in a gang?

as i was reading the other day, a young girl was shot dead whilst sitting with her friends in a fast food place, she was 16 i think. this was a gang feud, she had nothing to do with it, supposedly in the wrong place at the wrong time.

According to the prosecutors, quoted on BBC news, this murder was not gang related. Pity that. It spoils the outrage of Daily Mail readers

[emmie]

it's still shocking, and not the first or last

which murder, and don't other newspaper readers get upset when lives are lost in this way, needlessly. Or do you presume that only the DM readers think some of these gangs are a blight

[FredPuli43]

Surely, emmie, but this one had nothing to do with gangs. It was just a mass drunken brawl which involved a death. Yes, that is bad enough, but gangs have nothing to do with it

the one in the link,

[emmie]

they seem to say much the same as the mail

Ah right nothing to do with gangs at all.

// Sources said yesterday that Tyrell was stabbed to death when two groups of holidaymakers clashed around 24 hours after they had argued in a nightclub about a mystery young woman. //

So it was a row about a girl in a night club.

[emmie]

so where does it say that, as both the mail and guardian, unless its the same article say different, i suppose why should it matter what it was over, a bloke is dead, and someone is up for the murder.

Em

Earlier was from the Mirror. This is from a BBC report...

// Mr Cato said he understood that the brawl started over a football disagreement which then escalated and ended with his friend being killed. //
