Re: when age did you stop bangin
Hopefully most people stop banging when they come to an age as a men or women when they realize the ignorant cycle they are continuing. Also, when they learn we can be a part of something and not destroy ourselves, along with whatever were a part of with negativity, but up lift it with positive actions.
Re: when age did you stop bangin
You never really get out 100%. But I stopped at 22. When I look back, I'm lucky to have gotten out of it alive and in one piece. I just finished school, and have a job that I'll start in late August, it won't pay much but its a start to a normal life, I'll be teaching political economic theory at a community college and at a university as a part time instructor. I'm 29 now.

Re: when age did you stop bangin

i was just suprised that someone managed to do that
I was never a gang member like in the states but I was part of a crew up North in UK as a kid - fighting crew to crew or one on one was the diet of the day - but in that culture (seems ol' fashioned eh!) we fought with our fists. I stopped fighting 'cos I had had my nose bust a third time in too short a period and had to wear a plater cast on my face. When the cast came off, I had a bump of bone out of place on the bridge of my nose and I was pissed off cos I worried that the gallys wouldnt like me the same! Then me and a friend got jumped by a group of rivals - I was drunk at the time - we tried to give the best account of ourselves as we could and after battling a kid to my front, I saw a bat come in in my peripheral vision. Then f***in' saw stars and fell and got stamped on. When I came too and dragged my body to get cleaned up, I saw that my beating had knocked my nose into a respectable position and had done what the doctors didnt do! My gloom turned to instant joy - thank you rival crew for sorting out my good looks again, I am grateful. And so I made a choice not to scrap as I had and yeah, to make peace whenever I could. I was nineteen.

stated at 12 became non-active at 22/23 area. Shit was just getting old, all the real niggas except for a few were dead or locked up for ages and these youngstas were on some dumb shit, plus the real love was gone. Plus I lost alot of my Folks to drugs too and I wanted to be successful so I moved on. I still kick it with the old schoolers and my day 1 G'z who on some grown man shit and we all still down just not active. But best believe when the funk gets jumping we aint running in the other direction though...we just aint provoking violence and set tripping no more.
