gangs have been around for a long time, but MOO this new breed, they do not observe the generally accepted unwritten rules that once applied to that lifestyle. Things shifted twenty or so years ago IMO. Here's an OG talking about it.
Joe Hunter, known to many as Uncle Joe, is a well-known former gang member who said he is disgusted by what is happening in the Bluff City.
"Any gang member out there or any person out there that's shooting a kid, you deserve to die," Hunter said.
Hunter is outraged at the three men, all suspected gang members, who were arrested in connection with Williams' murder.
"They broke a law, not only in the legal world, but also in the illegal world," Hunter said, explaining the unwritten rule for gang members that you don't break. "You don't kill kids. You don't shoot kids. You don't sell dope where kids are."

Hunter says the culture of gangs has changed over the years and more innocent kids are becoming victim to senseless crime.
"It's nothing gangster about that. It's nothing mafia about that," Hunter said.

Speculation: IF this was related to gang activity how very sad. Children growing up in that environment can't even enjoy a normal family activity such as a birthday party without the risk of becoming victims to a war they aren't recruited into yet. JMO
