Parents have a lot to argue about. Should we spank? When should we potty train? What school should Junior attend?
Here’s a new topic to fight about: which violent street gang is right for my 4-year-old?
A couple fighting about which gang their 4-year-old toddler should join caused a public disturbance that resulted in the father’s arrest, Commerce City police said Thursday.
On Saturday, Joseph Manzanares stormed into the Hollywood Video store where his girlfriend worked, threatened to kill her and knocked over several video displays and even a computer, Commerce City police Sgt. Joe Sandoval said.
After he ran out of the store, police were called and the 19-year-old was arrested at his home.
His girlfriend told police that they had been arguing about the upbringing of their son and which gang he should belong to. The teen mother, who is black, is a member of the Crips. Manzanares is Hispanic and belongs to the Westside Ballers gang, the woman said.
Lovely.

these two are the poster children for forced sterilization.
Stupid people should not breed.
*Garcon*
2 retroactive abortions PLEASE!
Why couldn’t this be a “Romeo & Juliet” scenario and the two gang members kill each other and the kid gets raised right, hopefully.
Just when you think the great unwashed multitudes have hit bottom….a new low is reached.
The gene pool needs some clorox.
Simple
Ah but we are outside looking in. This is probably nothing new to the LA gang crowd. We can compare it to a Catholic and Protestant marrying……. how will the child be raised? Such a dilemma. Which gangs colors will the baby wear? How soon should one tattoo? I’m sure the proud parents will work something out. After all, they managed to co-mingle long enough to produce a baby.

Tragically, that scenario may yet come true.
What color rag should I hang out of my back pocket to show that I’m CLOUT thuggin?
it’s more like West Side Story sans dancing and lip synching…
but, the dialog isn’t Tony dreamily saying Maria is the most beautiful sound he has ever heard, it’s that dude busting caps in everyone’s a$ses and saying “B!tch, STFU, my kid is gonna be a Westside Baller”, and instead of Maria singing “I Feel Pretty”, it’s that ho shouting “Oh no you di’in’t, my kid gonna be a Crip, you dumb m&^%$%^*r”
ya gotta love crackheads!
oh… and… I wanted to vote for Ron Paul… that still hasn’t gotten old!!! (and it fits here…LOL)
At least she had a job, amazingly enough. Who was taking care of the spawn of this lovely couple when the altercation took place? The story also mentions that the male t-rd was arrested at his home; I’ll bet it was at the home of his parents. I wonder which gang they think their grandspawn should be in. I vote for #2 above.

Come on, guys. It’s not a gang, it’s a CLUB.
That’s a damn good question. I’ll run it by Edd. Hopefully he won’t throw something at me.

#7…RED…for going broke
#12 Matt - maybe Edd could give a ToT napkin to members once they get rolled in with a 24oz ribeye.
#14 Raiderdav, that’s brilliant! A steak-juice-stained white napkin. Well done, sir!
Agree with Simple Simon #4, Al Williams #8, and Bonecrusher #10. Sarcasm needs no apologies.
CLOUT members are a gang???? Guess only to the RINOs we’re trying to boot out. Golly, we’re a gang. Does that make us very fashionable?
Maybe they should hyphenate, just like women do who cannot give up their maiden names. The kid can start a gang called the Crip Ballers.
With a name like that, maybe the KID won’t be able to reproduce and perpetuate the cycle.
Actually, you could say the kids babydaddy started that gang….. =b
Face it. It is the sign of the apocalypse.
CPS, where are you?
Clout should wear green bandanas and stuff.
I am not supporting abortion here, but just think what America would be like now with 35 million more of these uneducated idiot couples running around. If we dont have abortion in the future, I wonder if sterilization would be out of the question? The gene pool is getting really dirty!
