A bit more about gang identifiers:

Parents should be aware of various identifiers gangs use and be observant that they do not appear on the personal articles of their children. Book bags, posters and gang colors are used to convey the gang message.  Jewelry, articles of clothing and seemingly innocent styles, symbols, color combinations, etc. can be used to convey a gang message.

Following is a list of items to assist you in recognizing street gang members that you may encounter in your neighborhood. Please remember that if a person is wearing one of the following identifiers it does not always mean that he or she is a gang member. Parents should be on the lookout for multiple identifiers, or patterns in the use of these identifiers.

• Right ear, gangs affiliated with the Disciples (Folks)
• Left ear, gangs affiliated with the Vice Lords or Latin Kings (People)

Hats

• Tilted left, affiliated with the Vice Lords or Latin Kings (People)

Gloves

Right / Left Rule

Pay particular attention to jewelry, decorations, grooming, etc.  The Right/Left Rule can be subtle.  Watch for signs like one pants leg cuffed, a belt buckle worn to one side, an eyebrow on one side with a shaved nick in it, one shoe consistently untied or with the tongue out…

• The same right-and-left rule applies to other items, including belt buckles, parts in hair, hair coloring or streaking, combs or picks in hair, eyebrows cut on one side, pant leg rolled up, bandannas hanging from one pocket, etc.
