@@whatislifesatandonthurtme1946 LMAO. Are you really quoting mob deep? Just because you listen to certain music doesn't make you the person in the song. I'll bet you're just like this kid, Boy.
Where I grew up they always had former gang members coming and talking to schools, and let me tell you kids just tune that out. There were still guns and people still got shot and cut up, and dealt drugs, and none of them said "Oh wow a gang member told me crimes have consequences, better stop!" Kids don't really think like that
Except Joseph didn't have a choice when he was that kids age, and that's what made him a real gangster. It hurts him knowing that that kid has every opportunity to live his peaceful life that he was born into but he's trying to leave it.
The sadness he showed when he says 11 years old kids should go to Disneyland, the crowd thinks it's a joke, but that emotion he show hit me really hard.
Absolutely heartbreakin man. Unbelievable he said that. Disneyland and all kids should get to go there and all he got was a world of doom and a homie for a father. My heart bleeds for the man.

@@angrydiver_4220 yes, thanks. I'm intrigued whether what you just said is borderline sociopathic, bc it certainly fits the description somewhat. I also think it's quite interesting when people admit their lack of empathy for others, when very well knowing you might get called not being "human" enough? If you get what I mean. Although all types of people with different mindsets exist there seems to be this idea of - relating and being empathetic- good person while the opposite is bad. I want your opinion on this if you don't mind ? Ps. English isn't my first language so I'm sorry it may be confusing
No, it IS a lifestyle. Rap music went from good funky songs to complete nonsense. They demean females and make illegal drug usage seem awesome. Our natural dialect doesn't sound like lil Wayne. People emulate rap gangstas. Rick Ross was a prison corrections officer but made a persona up that he was some high-end thug gangster. FDR's The New Deal, Rap, and baby termination is destroying the African American communities so yes being a gangster is a lifestyle
Just wanna thank the guy who pounded this message into this kid. I don't know really who you are but we need more people like you. God's got a plan for people like you with this generation and the next, and many more to come.
He’s fantastic. He has been clean and sober for a while and does all kinds of charity drives and community stuff to help kids like the one he’s taking to in the video. He recently spent five years acting on a wonderful show called Mayans M.C. He’s so committed to being sober that even his character on the show didn’t drink and other members of his motorcycle club would toast to him with waters
Thanks fax, personally I wasn’t raised in that life but all of my friends were, I try my best to keep my distance from it, but still be there for them when they need
Rowan Melton i 100% agree. he needs to grow up and realize he doesn't look cool pretending to be hard. it's upsetting especially due to the amount of gun violence in america already.
"No sir Disney land is a good place to be" I could see the pain in his face when he said that. I think he wishes he could have done stuff like that as a kid with his parents.
It's sad how people like this guy have such rough up bringing due to being in such a toxic environment. This guy is the real deal unlike those who "play" the role, thinking it makes them cool.
I respect that man so much. It sucks that he wasn’t dealt any good cards as a child but now it shows that he is rehabilitated and better than ever. Wishing him healing and success 🙏🏻
@Seantidope That’s a matter of preference. At least I don’t sound like swine that is too ignorant to speak properly. 😂 Edit: Also, people asking for friends in their bio is laughable. Do yourself a favor, don’t come on the internet again chump.

Annika Æ ... I’m sorry but you don’t know his life beyond what he chose to tell you. No one is going to willingly paint themselves in a bad light. Naivety at its finest.
Any time an ex gang member is brought in on things like this, they are respectful. They want that message to get across that it's not a good life. Yelling and screaming and acting stupid isnt going to get that message across.
If he was true “GANGSTER” he would’ve looked that man STRAIGHT in his eyes but instead he looked down because he felt stupid and embarrassed IMMEDIATELY !
AH! I thought I was the only one that thought this! Good to see someone wrote what I thought the second I saw that. That was proof that he had NO HEART.
That boy wouldn’t last two seconds in the hood. You may think it’s cool but when you experience, when you live it, it’s not cool anymore. It’s terror. It’s your life you are risking.
These kids don't know, man. I've been in the area of drive-bys, been chased through hoods by dudes with heat, been threatened to get killed, got guns pulled on me by meth'd up Surenos. Every day you're looking behind your shoulder, you'd be stupid not to in the hood. Every day was worrying about who's going to come down my block and start shooting and take my life. I had a thrill for it all in the beginning but slowly after time I realized this life isn't worth living, theres more to life to see, so much potential as a human so why waste it.
It's living everyday like you're gonna get robbed, stabbed or shot. Always looking behind your shoulder, sleeping with a weapon beside you at all times. Not the best life at all, unless you're the leader or a millionaire drug kingpin then you got watchdogs protecting you.
Don’t get trapped In this shitty world it’s a living nightmare and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone but when someone actually wants to be there and they know that people suffer while in that situation, I couldn’t are less if they they experienced it.
Notice how the former gang member did not laugh or smile at least once. When he said Disneyland is a place to go and everyone laughed he looked down. He was dead serious that was no joke. Can only imagine what he’s seen
@@ChampakBasumatary Maybe take a place like Detroit offer everyone without a criminal record to leave the area and give them a new home somewhere else and rename Detroit to Gangsta Land. Send every criminal to spend his sentence there. Hidden cameras all over the place could be used to also broadcast it over national TV as a sort of game show.
Sounds like something he’s had to do and hasn’t completely come back from. Usually people who haven’t experienced violence and carnage are the ones eager to find them. The ones who have do everything to avoid them.
look at his right arm, that shows alot of things happened to him in his past, and they way he called Dr. Phil sir and how he talked to the boy, he got my respect.
@Deanoss Last Uh.... no, I'm really not. It's really just simple respect people have for each other when you're acquainted, like how a cashier can call you sir when asking for your order. That's the point of the main comment
This guy had my immediate respect when the first thing he said was “you have a loving mother and father”; most gang bangers join gangs looking to belong and to be loved because they don’t have that at home.
Very true coming from a former gang member myself back in the day father was always gone working in other states mother was gone half the time trying to solve other people's problems guess she thought she was a hero. Guess some parents forget the responsibility it takes to raise there kids them selves Time itself is precious & priceless this new generation in teens are something else disrespectful ungrateful & selfish they only think of themselves & not others.
I agree. It doesn’t help when America has one of the worst minimum wages. Some parents work so much that it neglects there kids. It’s not there fault. It’s just that there too tired after working double shifts.
Even though that's mostly true, I think people can still go that route if they feel like they aren't appreciated by other people outside of family. But it all depends on the situation of the individual.
You’re crazy if you think a kid turned out this way coming from 2 loving, normal parents. Something is off at home, I don’t care what image they present here
DMadManos yeah and notice how they were looking at each other sending each other data of gang business through brain signals. Everything looking sus. 🤨🤨
@Jon B its a more extreme version of when that teacher says i knew a student that swung of there chair and ended up breaking their skull or going blind or went to the hospital
Y’all do realize that he was most likely a legit gang member, who actually lived a sucky life. Lots of people who grow up in rough neighborhoods have seen people shot and killed, the homicide rates are extremely high. Same in combat people dying is fairly normal, you are after all in a war zone.
Krypto Kool that’s what I’m saying nerds just try to act hard they all🧢 for they friends,if u really live in the hood or from the hood u not trynna stay there forever u trynna do better for yourself💯
As a former member, one thing i hate is when these dudes try to “change” their life. You cant refocus someones life, especially someone you dont even know. All he did was clown him and made him look a fool. Guess whats coming next
@@superior_nobody07 youre right about him needing a reality check. But he needs it with guidance and maybe even a mentor.

That ending part where he talks about his “gang career” being over was definitely a key to reality check
If he was true “GANGSTER” he would’ve looked that man STRAIGHT in his eyes but instead he looked down because he felt stupid and embarrassed IMMEDIATELY !
AH! I thought I was the only one that thought this! Good to see someone wrote what I thought the second I saw that. That was proof that he had NO HEART.
@@jessecastellanos everyone’s got a heart technically , or we wouldn’t be alive
How about when some people deserve some shots
He is an insecure awkward little kid.
That’s a normal behavior when you are that age.
I was like him, minus the gangster part.
Facts
When he said “my boys have died in my arms man”, you could hear the pain inside the tone of the voice and how real it can get 2:52
You can tell Joseph took offense to him saying being a gang member is cool.
Mista when narancia died
@@tommygun8256 why you gotta put salt on the wound man
I would say that kid would last at least a hour on the streets if he was lucky!
Yes he would be a real sharp one! 😅😅.
He almost started to cry
That boy wouldn’t last two seconds in the hood. You may think it’s cool but when you experience, when you live it, it’s not cool anymore. It’s terror. It’s your life you are risking.
These kids don't know, man. I've been in the area of drive-bys, been chased through hoods by dudes with heat, been threatened to get killed, got guns pulled on me by meth'd up Surenos. Every day you're looking behind your shoulder, you'd be stupid not to in the hood. Every day was worrying about who's going to come down my block and start shooting and take my life. I had a thrill for it all in the beginning but slowly after time I realized this life isn't worth living, theres more to life to see, so much potential as a human so why waste it.
It's living everyday like you're gonna get robbed, stabbed or shot. Always looking behind your shoulder, sleeping with a weapon beside you at all times.
Not the best life at all, unless you're the leader or a millionaire drug kingpin then you got watchdogs protecting you.
Don’t get trapped In this shitty world your name says it all
Don’t get trapped In this shitty world it’s a living nightmare and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone but when someone actually wants to be there and they know that people suffer while in that situation, I couldn’t are less if they they experienced it.
I think he would last longer than 2 seconds
Love the fact he wasn’t being angry or mad at the kid, just informing him of the reality of being a gangster.
Notice how the former gang member did not laugh or smile at least once. When he said Disneyland is a place to go and everyone laughed he looked down. He was dead serious that was no joke. Can only imagine what he’s seen
True
it hit him deep because he didnt have those opportunities
Maybe we finally found out how to end all gang violence.
Send them to Disneyland perhaps instead of prison?
@@CrniWuk You're exactly correct. I hope they include other amusement parks as well. I wonder why they can't come up with these kinda solutions.
@@ChampakBasumatary Maybe take a place like Detroit offer everyone without a criminal record to leave the area and give them a new home somewhere else and rename Detroit to Gangsta Land. Send every criminal to spend his sentence there. Hidden cameras all over the place could be used to also broadcast it over national TV as a sort of game show.
"You can't give that life back, bro!" Sounds like a lot of guilt and pain in that sentence when he said that
Sounds like something he’s had to do and hasn’t completely come back from. Usually people who haven’t experienced violence and carnage are the ones eager to find them. The ones who have do everything to avoid them.
look at his right arm, that shows alot of things happened to him in his past, and they way he called Dr. Phil sir and how he talked to the boy, he got my respect.
I doubt he personally killed anyone. It would be unlikely for him to be a free man if he had
Met Fan There’s plenty of ways for someone who’s murdered to be allowed free.
It’s called voluntary / involuntary manslaughter.. but keep in mind he did 12 years.
With that haircut, the only gang he could be in is One Direction .
1d kinda go hard not gonna lie
Vaspickle Gaming I didn’t see a comment like this but okay
Gucci Gang too
😂
Woooowwww sooooo funnnnnnnnny
Kid(jokingly): I wanna be a gangster
Parents: We going to Dr. Phil
My little brother who drinks coke in a wine glass looks more gangster the him
My younger sister who kicks everyone she meets is more of a Gangstar
Am I your lil brother?
@@stardustsama3688 How old is she? I'm looking for a women to merry. I can pay 3 big tasty or a bucket of KFC.
tanjiorno Giomado Coca-Cola bottle, Wine glass, I don’t give a damn.
What happened to my boy Tanjiro?😂
Can’t even look the man in his face, he’ll continue the lifestyle and then get a reality check.
At first it looked like he was holding his laugh
Gotta learn somehow, one way or another.
Daniel Laixer he’s trying not to laugh at this kid cause he’s a joke
@@xRedApache, I mean, the kid looked like the one holding his laugh
Its funny, he literally got caught for everything he did how long does he think it is before he gets arrested
Phil is a respected man: the gangster called him boss
Thanh Tran nah he’s just the mafia boss lol
@@joshsobel431 I agree 100%
@Deanoss Last and always called him sir. That's not a greeting but a sign of mutual respect
@Deanoss Last what? This has nothing to do with the streets, this has to do about general respect
@Deanoss Last Uh.... no, I'm really not. It's really just simple respect people have for each other when you're acquainted, like how a cashier can call you sir when asking for your order. That's the point of the main comment
i like how he doesnt just scream at the kid and assert his dominace he just tells him the truth
i like how dr phil and the former gang member are homies
Kelly thought that too lol
Same
I think he provides counseling as well as a outlet.
Dr. Phil is a straight g
Pendeho intensifies
This guy had my immediate respect when the first thing he said was “you have a loving mother and father”; most gang bangers join gangs looking to belong and to be loved because they don’t have that at home.
Very true coming from a former gang member myself back in the day father was always gone working in other states mother was gone half the time trying to solve other people's problems guess she thought she was a hero.
Guess some parents forget the responsibility it takes to raise there kids them selves Time itself is precious & priceless this new generation in teens are something else disrespectful ungrateful & selfish they only think of themselves & not others.
I agree. It doesn’t help when America has one of the worst minimum wages. Some parents work so much that it neglects there kids. It’s not there fault. It’s just that there too tired after working double shifts.
Even though that's mostly true, I think people can still go that route if they feel like they aren't appreciated by other people outside of family. But it all depends on the situation of the individual.
You’re crazy if you think a kid turned out this way coming from 2 loving, normal parents. Something is off at home, I don’t care what image they present here
I see this in my neighborhood
He looks like he's trying his hardest not to cry and laugh at the same time
Its a condition where he cant express the right emotions hes feeling
R/rareInsults
@@sharkbyte1565 its not an insult but an observation
I thought he was trying not to laugh
Nova.Equalizer maybe this kid is a sociopath?
These fools are laughing on a very serious thing because they can't understand how immature these are🤠
I love the fact that the guy greets Dr Phil like he was the boss of his old gang
He’s only stopping him from acting like a gangster to get rid of the competition on the streets. Dr Phil’s low key a king pin out here 😂
Robert de Niro leads Tom Hardy
He was, dr phil is a ex gang member for the MD 13.
This comment made me laugh out loud for real
He is
Didn’t expect that gangster guy to be so compelling and actually make a difference, I think that kids life is changed.
Former gangster. He doesn't bang no more so why classify him as one?
Dude could be a public speaker
yeah that's good to see stories like that where the former gang member is straightened out and is living well. It's inspiring
That kid was smiling the whole time unless it's nervous smiles
Nope your gonna see a plot twist
Why does dr Phil feel like some massive underground mafia boss
He looks like a dirty cop
And the former gangster refers to him as "boss" for some reason
DMadManos people refer to friends as boss sometimes
DMadManos yeah and notice how they were looking at each other sending each other data of gang business through brain signals. Everything looking sus. 🤨🤨
Bacon Bitz yea sometimes...
The former gang member is humble because he was teached by life. The 15 year old at this point waits for his lesson .
You dont choose the street life. It chooses you. If it's the other way you are cinge asf.
You know Dr. Phil is respected when a gang member is calling him sir
and "boss"
Former gang member.
It's called tv
@@jonathanochoa3768 r/whoosh
Timothy Rurak okay boomer
He’s such a cool dude, not the kid but the former gang member.
I'm pretty sure we got that from the get-go
Kid is cooler
@@bed5471 nah, the kid is weird.
@@jellybeanrock6019 👈 this username 😂😂😂
@@bed5471 why do you think that?
I have mad respect for the former gang member sharing his story, helping a kid change his lifestyle while he can.
He got out of that life and he’s trying to prevent others from going down the same road. Respect ✊🏻
[During gang initiation] “You ever kill anyone, bruh?”
Kid: “Well…one time I killed it on Dr. Phil’s show”
People say he’s not a real gangsta, but they obviously weren’t there when he blew up some kid’s house on minecraft
That kids biggest thing was getting suspended from school for ditching a free period
😂😂😂😂
Lmfao😂
Lmao top comment
Probably on survival mode too.
His voice broke when he talked about is friend dying, that hit me
@Jon B Hahaha you know they did 👀😝
@Jon B its a more extreme version of when that teacher says i knew a student that swung of there chair and ended up breaking their skull or going blind or went to the hospital
Y’all do realize that he was most likely a legit gang member, who actually lived a sucky life. Lots of people who grow up in rough neighborhoods have seen people shot and killed, the homicide rates are extremely high. Same in combat people dying is fairly normal, you are after all in a war zone.
@Jon B I doubt he made that up. This dude was a sureno I think and those fools are treacherous
@Jon B Old people at weddings always poke me and say "you're next". So I started doing the same thing to them at funerals............
That kid doesn't look like a gang member that kid looks like a hardcore Fortnite player
They the true gangsters lmao
Gangsnite
_Being a minecraft veteran is better_
Hahahaha
Media: Is there a difference?
never thought i’d see Dr. Phil dab up a gang member 💀
This dude is more pissed to see how the upcoming gansgta gonna look like.

😂😂 underrated comment
Lmao
Lmao
LOL imagine a gangster vegan
If this kid goes to jail he'll be tossing the salad few times a day.
more like gettin his sald tossed lmao
Oh no, I got flashbacks to "not in front of my salad."
He will go to juvenile he won’t have to worry about that chief
r/wooosh. Guess you don't get what the comment means haha
@@sragen99
What about jello salad, is there jello salad in jail? Oh..... now I get it....
Ww²wèwwwww
This kid was raised with a silver spoon, got a million dollar house, both his parents probably lawyers, lives in the suburbs
Well clearly something wasn’t great in his childhood for him to be trying to join gangs. Sometimes things aren’t so simple.
You're talking about what the parents have. What does the kid have?
Kylo Ren obviously what his parents have, he has too tf
I was born in a mexican hood and I'm white and I really really don't want to be there for the rest of my life
Krypto Kool that’s what I’m saying nerds just try to act hard they all🧢 for they friends,if u really live in the hood or from the hood u not trynna stay there forever u trynna do better for yourself💯
As a former member, one thing i hate is when these dudes try to “change” their life. You cant refocus someones life, especially someone you dont even know. All he did was clown him and made him look a fool. Guess whats coming next
No one's trying to change his life. That's his choice alone, but evidently, he needed a reality check, and who better than someone who knows that life
@@superior_nobody07 youre right about him needing a reality check. But he needs it with guidance and maybe even a mentor. This doesnt help. “Oh hey guys lets put him on national tv, shame him, make fun of his looks and that would definitely help him” like really? Who thinks of it? Lol kinda makes me think its scripted
Judge: you’re still looking at 22 years

Good one😂😂😂😂

You clearly stole the idea from the comment above you
T F H F T W u right
He might just be thinking, a lot of people look down when thinking.
Hahah thats what i was thinking 😂
Because he was laughing.
Why are we talking about the kid? I admire this man for becoming clean and getting to where he his. Thumbs up for the ex-gang member
Conor Hogan yes !
Conor Hogan true!!
Thumb up is a gang sign..
Hes amazing!!
lol ive seen him selling drugs and things on snap, hes not ex
That is by far the most respectful gangster I’ve ever seen.
Dr.Phils underground gangster friends needs to be on TH-cam rewind.
kou shik • 9K Views yes he’s been disrespected by TH-cam for too long
Yesss. And kill the paul brothers

no sir, disneyland is a good place to go.

I loved that. Disneyworld is a great place. I'm sure Disneyland is too.
I love that too!

Yankee Mockingbird hardly. you’ve obviously never been.
@@catherinemay27 you obviously are oblivious
The only reason why Dr. Phil didn’t want that kid to become a gangster is because he doesn’t want competition
As if he could compete
