Getting out of Gangs

Some gang members say the only way to get out of a gang is in a casket or by going to jail. But some experts say that many young people in gangs DO eventually go straight. John Biewen [BEE-win] from Minnesota Public Radio in St. Paul reports on an effort to convince young people to resist the lure of gang membership, which focuses on intensive education and counseling...and teaching kids the difference between fear and respect.
