If I may take a brief moment to bring something to your attention, I don't think the initial post was made to upset anyone. Gangs were initially created to protect one another from racial discrimination and hate crimes, they were groups of people who sought protection from others. I find it almost unbearably ironic that you are discriminating against someone purely because they seek information on the internet regarding something that they don't understand as opposed to jumping to rash conclusions and resorting to hatred toward a group of people that they don't know much about. The internet is a resource and should be used as such and I find it counter-intuitive for someone to discriminate against another because they are seeking knowledge. Everyone has their own niche and just because someone isn't affiliated with another group of people or familiar with other ways of life doesn't mean they should remain ignorant to outside knowledge, that mentality just propagates the idea that discrimination is acceptable and we are allowed to blindly dislike those who don't share our opinions and mentality. Just because someone is knowledgeable about one aspect of life doesn't mean they are exempt from continuing to learn about other people.
