Hi all I would like to inform everyone that the gang the bloods here in Massachusetts has a new annisiation. When you are driving and see someone with thier headlightS off or high beams on please for gods sake do not flash them with yours. The first person that flashes the gang member will cause the gang member to turn around chase down the car and kill everyone in it. ALL PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. The notice came to my house today from my 7 years school from the State police. This is real.

What on earth is this world coming too?

We had the same notice spreading around here in the Philippines. In fact, I got hold of a copy of notice sometime last year. It really caused a lot of people to panic considering that there were a lot of news about gang wars and the like. About a week or so after this news spread around, the Philippine National Police came up with a statement to tell people that this message actually came from another country and was forwarded to people through emails. They mentioned in their statement that there is really no reason for people to panic. Nonetheless, they reminded people to be careful anyway.

I am in MA too and guess what the "notice" you got is false. Maybe check at www.snopes.com before forwarding on "urban legends" like this one. Oh by the way here is the direct link from snopes about this urban legend.

Why on earth would they send out a notice like that if it was fake? I am not doubting you and I thank you for the information. But just in case I still will not flash my lights. Rather be safe then sorry ya know. Some copycat gangs just might try to immitate this..In my city they have stepped up police presence with state officers (probably because of the drug problem) but I will still cover my back.

Not saying you have to flash your lights if someone doesn't have their's on or if they have their brights on, just saying it's a good idea to check out stuff like these before spreading it around as truth. I've heard of this urban legend for a few number of years, every once in a while it re-surfaces.

oh my God! I can never understand how people could bring themselves to do such things, gang or not.I think these people are born evil, you have to be to do that.I mean when I was young I could be talked into alot, but never that, not even if I would be killed.I would rather lose my life than kill an innocent.
