Here's one of the supposed gang signs he flashed. I don't know, there has to be way more to this story than this, that could have been totally accidental (would be more convincing if he did a series of gang signs). It will be interesting to see what unfolds.

I have my doubts that he is in a gang. We'll see what happens though.

That's a very old pic. I've since put on a few pounds, gotten some extensive tattoo work and gone mostly bald. Since moving back in with my parents, I don't tend to wear as much eyeliner.

Piss Poor Work ethic, flash in the pan player. Glad we didn't try to get this wanna be Gangster thug. The NFL needs to run this crowd out of the NFL

I am shocked NOT REALLY

L.A gangs are less active than in the crack
gang war days. Oakland is much smaller city
but had several hundred murders a year and
nightly shootings . One of my friends brothers
growing up works as a Sargent for The Oakland
Gang Unit. I think they generally have dozens
of murder warrants and similar type warrants
to serve throughout the year.

I was born in San Pablo California the week
Martin Luther King was shot in 1968. Which
is about ten minutes from Oakland. my grandfather
Worked in and around Oakland and Richmond
California all his life. There are sections of Richmond
and Oakland cops and emergency services will
not respond too unless they have several cars
supporting them.

parts of Oakland and Richmond are as dangerous
as any city in America

if Jackson is involved in those gangs he probably
has been around many shootings and murders.

The Vikings should get him, I think.

Or maybe I just think everybody can be Carter or Allen.
