When the guy with the tattoos spoke.....

Your presentation was very informative, because there's a lot of things I didn't know about gangs. I basically normally hear the "cool" things. You let me know that there's really nothing cool about it.

When the guy with the tattoos spoke, I realized that being in a gang effects your whole life, even if you get away. the only thing that wasn't very good about your presentation what that the videos were too short!

You should find more that other than funerals and a guy with a hanging stomach, that really informs us. Also, I want to think you for telling me about Chief Keef. I never really liked his music anyways. He's untalented.

Thank you for going around to speak to kids, because it really does make a difference!

You Have Changed My Ways.....

I really appreciate you for coming out and bringing Chad with you, and talking to us about "Gangs". 

I'm glad that you have came out and talked to us about gangs because you have changed my ways when  I have walked of of the presentation, because I have been getting in a lot of trouble lately and I have been trying to change my ways lately. 

Every since you came today talking about not getting in trouble and getting your education, I have changed a lot! I've stop playing around talking back and even getting in trouble. 

 I also appreciate you bringing Chad and how scared and afraid he was. Like I feel terribly sorry for him and his children and I hope that his life will get better than it is now. I truly appreciate  you for coming out!

I Took This Very Serious.....

THANK YOU for coming to our school to talked to us and tell us some stuff about gangs. I took this very serious because everything you said was TRUE! Gangs aren't anything to play with and you made it clear.

I also liked what you said about love in a thug because that's telling me who I should watch out for and who I should fall in love with, because they may say they love me but they might just be saying that to use me. So, that was very heart touching to me.

Chad also help me realize that being in a gang can hurt not just you but your whole family and friends. So, thank you Chad for telling and sharing your story with me.

Monika really helped me figure out that you don't have to be in a gang to get hurt. Which is something I didn't know and enjoyed hearing.
