You know gangs come in all shapes and forms. When you have friends they can end up being a gang if they get together and try to gang up one person. They can destroy someones life. They can hurt people and they can make someone feel very small. Even on mylot there are gangs. If they don't like you they stick together and make peoples lives miserable. They think they have power and can destroy anyone who gets in their way. I could probably form my own gang of friends if I wanted too. But i choose to do things in a more subtle way. I will watch and wait for the right moment then strike without warning lol Have you ever had someone gang up on you? How did you react and what did you do to stop them?

I never 'fitted in' even as a child I was always the 'black sheep' at school, the proverbial loner and thus was bullied more. I was never excepted. There was this gang of fifth formers who used to go around in a gang and were forever finding me and teasing and tormenting me, I was a first former and they would always threaten and intimidate me, as well as push me around. Gangs can be very intimidating to children as well as adults and there is after all safety in numbers and no one wants to be the outsider, or different in any way. Because that's a weakness. Gangs are like pack animals and will pick off the weakling both in animal and human nature.

Sure thing. I hate it. I hate gangs. That's gang politics. Either you are tough and you beat them all, or you find a gang and beat them. I would rather just coexist.

I have had a group of people gang up on me. My hubby's former friends. They tried to tell me that I wasn't right for him and that when push came to shove, he would choose them over me. Lots of stuff went on wth them trying to get me to break up with him. They even tried to get him to break up with me. I finally told one to the girls that it really didn't matter to me. If he wanted to be with them and not me, I didn't really care, there were other men who wanted me. She got all offended and went and told him (my hubby). Then his gang of friends got tired of it all and basically told him "Us, who you have known for over 10 years or that b1tch you have known 6 weeks." When I heard about it, I laughed. I told that same girl "Honey, I am THAT good. He will so choose me. It will happen so fast that you won't even know what hit you." We will have been married 6 years in September. None of them were invited to the wedding. :)

You don't have to fight with someone to have a gang after you. if someone doesn't like you for any reason they can gang up on you.

Actually when I was younger I had 2 older siblings who always caused much trouble and one day ...One of the two siblings and I were walking from School..my older sibling had some words with a group of people and the next thing you know this group ...gang...was after me..My sibling ran home to tell mom while I took on 5 o 6 who were one year older than myself..When My mom arrived I was on the ground receiving kicks and they took off running..so yes..I had a gang after me..but only temporarily .. I had the sad lot of walking in the footsteps of two siblings who were always in trouble!;)+

I have never been a part of a gang in a negative sense. I don't believe in it and I don't listen to that kind of negative stuff, but as you say gangs are everywhere, all myloters are part of a gang known as myloters. a gang usually bears a negative connotation, but gang is just a group of people with the same interests, |belong to a gang of writers, (real writing groups) etc a group or band: A gang of boys gathered around the winning pitcher. 2. a group of youngsters or adolescents who associate closely, often exclusively, for social reasons, esp. such a group engaging in delinquent behavior. 3. a group of people with compatible tastes or mutual interests who gather together for social reasons: I'm throwing a party for the gang I bowl with. 4. a group of persons working together; squad; shift: a gang of laborers. 5. a group of persons associated for some criminal or other antisocial purpose: a gang of thieves. 6. a set of tools, electronic components or circuits, oars, etc., arranged to work together or simultaneously. 7. a group of identical or related items. –verb (used with object) 8. to arrange in groups or sets; form into a gang: to gang illustrations for more economical printing on one sheet. 9. to attack in a gang. –verb (used without object) 10. to form or act as a gang: Cutthroats who gang together hang together. —Verb phrase 11. gang up on, Informal.

i have had a small gang after me once, over the most stupidest thing ever, actually i cant even remember what it was, i think was istopped being friends with this girl because she was a total user and i couldnt put up with it anymore and her friend decided she wasnt happy with that or something but i do remember her friend pushing me into a slide of the fridge (from behind she thought i didnt know who she was) funny thing is she ran out of the shop (i was working) and i seen her since and she looks the other way so what happened there not sure. but people that try and gang up on you are just losers.. thats my opinion

I've never thought about a group of 'friends' becoming a gang but you are right. Yes, I did have a gang after me just a few years ago - it was a group of people I won't mention names that wanted my web site shut down. How did I stop them - I and others prayed alot.

haha.. i hate gangs but i do really have some friends. but, i dont think i need a gang to fight, i dont want anyone to get involved in my problems, so i rather fight by myself. so far i think there are 3 to 4 gangs ive beat for the past 5 years.. haha, enjoy kicking their butt in public.. if u really want to hurt them, make sure u hit them hard and hit their boss frst so he cannot resist u anymore. then be cruel and make the boss cry ! how to do that? simple, grab his nuts and knock him in the face with ur elbow and make him fall. dont let go ur hand! haha... big guys, small guys, will fall for this beleive me

I have never had a gang after me persay, but i've had a few friends that have come after me. (were friends) I haven't really ever seen a gang, except on television. I guess i've lived a sheltered life, or just haven't lived in gang run areas.

I have been bullied online by a group of people. I have had my photo edited, parodies made about me, things posted about my family. They have created blogs that target me and my family. They have even grouped together, send out emails to my friends and colleges. They have even used my previous webhost's TOSS against me.

I can say I was lucky never to be prey to such gangs. I once belong to a gang of 8 but it wasn't a naughty gang. We do not go round disturbing people and making people miserable. We do spring surprises with our presence. People may envy us for we are known to be one closely-knit bunch, helping each other with our homework. We eat together, we study together and we travel together. It is sad that the gang is now disbanded after one after another got married.
