181 Words1 Page

I believe that America 's biker gangs should either become less violent, or they should be stopped altogether. I prefer the first option because they are still given the freedom to be in a biker gang, and no one gets hurt. For some, biker gangs are seen as a symbol of security and family. We should not have to take someone away from their sense of family, as long as they are not being violent. I believe that the best thing that we could do to reduce the violence, is to get law enforcements involved. If push comes to shove, law enforcements should seperate the gangs into different prisons. Although it could take years to work, it is one option we have at the moment. Another option would be to put them into a mental insituition or a correction
