Location: East Providence, RI "Gang" tags are everywhere these days. The majority of tags that you see, at least where I am in the Northeast, are from wannabes. Some of these tags are from kids with too much time on their hands and others are from gangs that want to align themselves with the real deal gangs. The 5 pointed star in this tag is associated with the Bloods, the Vice Lords and the Latin Kings. Although these gangs are more prevalent in larger metropolitan areas, I am not saying that there are not factions everywhere. The majority of true gang tags do not include bubbly letters such as this. They have more sharp edges and will most often include the gang name and location. Also, there will usually be quite a few different tags with some crossed out as rival gangs will often re-tag an area.
