you sir are correct!!
Youth can be a minefield: drugs, sex, violence, and peer pressure. One group has an extreme way of dealing with it. They call themselves Straight Edge, and while they are being classified as a violent gang in areas such as Salt Lake City and Reno, they aren't like any other gang you know: they reject drugs, drinking, smoking, and even casual sex. They're rebels against a society in which everything goes. National Geographic goes inside this growing youth movement caught between being a refuge for Americas kids and a dangerous gang wanted by authorities.
Why would you become such an active member on a site full of like-minded free spirited non-violent people? When you and your "crew" would want to fight 99% of us? I think youre just confused, and got picked on by the stoners in your high school. Thats it right? You just have low self-esteem?
