Remember, this is a one/two punch.
The devil is in the details.
There are two anti-gang bills; one for prevention and one for prosecution.
The first bill is the touchy feely stuff that talks about money for youth programs.
But then.....
BAMMM!!!!
Here comes the hardcore!
Once all the fluffy stuff is out of the way. The next bill deals with the penalties...
So watch out for that right hook!!!
