CYBERGANGS The head of the gang task force for the Arizona Department of Public Safety reports that a Web site established in Detroit offers a how-to guide for gangster wannabes and is urging gang members everywhere to unite under its umbrella to form the first cyberspace gang. The official says: "Now it's in your home, your living room, your den... Unfortunately, these guys can talk about anything they want and there's nothing law enforcement can do about it."

Umm... yes, it's called free speech. While organizational ability might be a matter for concern, somehow I doubt that having them on the net will do any real damage... being on a computer that mine is connected to hardly puts them "in [my] home," even if my computer at home were connected to a phone line. Bloody law enforcement paranoids... -Allen
Besides, its not at all threatening. Actually, more on the stupid side. All it is right now is a several pages of trash-talk and a few links. Hardly a threat to life as we know it.
