comparing the outsiders with my live

I compare the outsiders with my all day there are a fight with gang. I have cousins that are for a gang and last tiume he almost got shot. I don't really want to get involed with the gangs because I would like to be somebody important for our world. My parents always tell me if you gonna be getting introble in school you would be successful in live. I don't have problems with gangs but it wouldn't be great to have problems . that's all that need to say how I compare this with my live that end.
