What you don't know CAN hurt you!

Alabaster, Alabama -You didn't see the story of the convenience store robbery in the news or hear it on the radio, but it happened. The store was robbed, by a Mexican gang - most likely an MS-13 group operating out of Nashville, TN. What makes this robbery so unusual is the brutality involved. Store employees and patrons were savagely beaten without cause. It's not just happening in Alabaster. It's happening all over the USA, and it's not just MS-13, but MS-18 and a host of others as well.

As a municipal official, law enforcement officer, or retail merchant; you need to know about this growing threat and prepare to protect your community. Others have already started (See http://www.nationalconcernedofficers.com/Mexican%20Gangs.htm). Background material on gang activity in America is available at http://www.isn.ethz.ch/news/sw/details.cfm?id=14715. We had to get our information from Zurich, Switzerland on what is happening in the USA! We've made it a little easier for you.

Now, the question is what are you going to do about it? A good start might be to review our Community Alliance program and develop a working plan in your community. Additional information is available at www.communityalliance.info.
