I see a jail term in your future.

Wait till you're legal, stay away from crime, and get a gun LEGALLY.

Otherwise, just be careful of your surroundings and especially the people you associate with.

I was born and raised there, never once carried a gun, and I'm a white male. Don't become another statistic. Just get yourself out of there the way a real man would. Get an education, and a job. I can't stress enough that when you give into that mindset, you become just one more statistic.

Stay out of trouble and you wont need a gun. Hang out with the right people

If you are 16, you can't legally own one anyway. If you are caught by police that is a weapons violation and it'll probably just escalate.

A gun (purchased legally) is about $319 for a reasonable caliber (anything less is probably not very effective), but then you can buy a bullet-proof vest for $300.

If you feel unsafe, buy the vest. Of course, in some counties only a defendant can wear one legally.

Remember, a gun doesn't reduce the chance of trouble, it just gives you an option if trouble should occur, but that's a very vague option. The best precaution is to remain aware of who is around you, and pay attention to every car that hear coming up behind you.


Ruffus
My friend, don't listen to your friend.

Having a gun will most likely only find you in more trouble.

In a bad situation if you show your gun, the situation will escalate to something much worse.

1) Your gun is taken from you and used against you.

2) They pull a gun because you did and you get shot.

3) You might also shoot an innocent bystander.

4) You shoot someone and spend a lot of time in jail. You also don't want murder or a serious injury on your conscience for the rest of your life.

5) Some day you might be very angry and not be able to think straight, with a gun available you could make a very bad decision.

6) Plus you don't want to fall into a negative stereotype.

7) Carrying a gun will lead you on a path that you don't want to travel.

These are very important days in your life because you are shaping your future. If you can just stay out of trouble and pursue bettering yourself through education you WILL escape South Central to a better life. I guarantee it.

You are the only one who can guide yourself to a better life.


horscraz15
No do not get one. They are too dangerous and you could 1. accidentaly shoot yourself or 2. get caught by the cops and put in jail. or 3. accidentaly kill someone else and be put in jail for the rest of your life!!! Don't get one!!!!!!!!!


slimdude142
The cops out there would really assume, that you're either a gang member or a gang banger, they sure will lock you up if you are caught on the streets with it. My best advice discuss this situation with your parents, aunts, uncles or older members of the family.


Paris Hilton
Go sleep on your grandmother's floor if necessary. Get in school and get a job after school and weekends and help support your grandma..Scheesch it isn't that complicated...If you hang around the flour mill sooner or later you get flour on your hands...Unfortunately, although you are young it's time to grow up and make the most important decisions of your life..It's your life go build a good one..


elin j
You're waaaaaaaaaaay too young, and anyway, you shouldnt really ever carry a gun. Just keep away from the bad places. You really don't want to be shooting anyone, specially at a young age..


LARRY J7
Get a gun
and your circumstance will escalate
"live by the gun -- die by the gun"


Emly The Monster *rawr*
My personal opinion is that since you are only 16, you should wait for a few years before you get a gun. I don't think its even legal for a 16 year old to carry a gun.

no way.


chieromancer
Your just asking for trouble.

Get a bullet proof vest, some pepper spray and Karate lessons.

Stay away from trouble and it will stay away from you.

I would stay away from a gun. You are only 16, you are still young. Is there anyone else you can stay with so you are not in this situation?


Pilot~is on vac. beginning 5/2!

YOU ARE WAY TOO YOUNG to even THINK OF guns!!!

I suggest............ Stay where you are and since you are age 16, that means you are able to work.........Go get a part time job and help pay your stay with Grandma! Oh, and if your brother is older....he should do the same.

Besides, how are you to support yourselves in LA?? Why does your cousin want you to get a gun??? IS HE IN A GANG where he has to ask you to have a gun?? That's just not right. Period, end of subject.

Don't do it. You'll only be inviting trouble. Just be smart about how you act and what you say to people and you'll be ok.

I don't think you should because if you were caught with a gun then you could get done. and if you did anything with the gun you'd go to prison. just keep safe at all times and always be with someone...
cant u get pepper spray or something for self defence ?


Tall Green Alien
I don't think you should carry a gun. Be careful about what you do, where you go, and who you hang out with. If you think it is too dangerous to live there, don't!!!


mike m
NO YOU SHOULDN'T CARRY A GUN.


dsagiggles
honestly i really don't think you should carry a gun with you... because if you get caught with one you will get screw over by the cops... and if you use it.... it can cause serious damage.. and i don't think you want to go to jail right..... well if you want protect yourself i suggest pepper spray... trust me it works i live in a really f.u.c.k.e.d up neighborhood... and it's bad there like always shoot outs... but any ways carry pepper spray with you or a taser.... i also carry one of those... but let me just say be careful and don't be dumb by caring a gun... please

I feel sorry for you....

If you're 16 it is illegal to own a gun. Having one doesn't mean you're safe anyway. If you get in a problem & someone sees it - including the cops - they're liable to shoot first out of panic. Forget about the gun. This is why so many young people in America are dead right now. The reality of shooting someone or being shot is NOTHING like TV or the movies. Also, if someone takes it away from you and shoots you it would have been better to avoided the whole thing. Guns are for one thing - KILLING - end of story. If you try to scare someone with a gun they're liable to have one too and you've just given them the perfect reason to take your life. PLEASE, for your own sake, forget about the gun.


radlib
nope


slickRick S
No don't do it. A gun will change you attitude and the way you look at people. you could get a false sense of security and make a bad decision like shoot someone in the head accidentally.


Susan C
I would just surround myself with people your cousin knows...or some friends from school.

try not to put yourself in bad situations...and try to stay away from those you know who will cause you problems...or people your cousin knows that causes problems...

but if the crime is high in that area...i would prob get a gun...

like a small hand gun...and wouldnt be too flashy about it...that would bring on some serious trouble...like jail time.

but goodluck and im sending my prayers from panama city,florida.

yummychocolate47

Mr.* InFo*
Do what u think is nessacery


z_i_p_p_s_1_9_8_6
Yes, get a pocket rocket, they're very easy to hide.
