Identifiers
Wednesday, 03 October 2007
The are several symbols used by members of the Peoples Nation to denote their gang affiliation.  Tattoos worn by Peoples Nation gang members frequently include the five-point crown, staff or cane, the number 5, crescent moon, dice, spanish cross, cholo, pyramid, five-point star, champagne glass, and bunny head.  
 
In addition to these symbols, the Peoples Nation wear various sports gear and brands to represent their gang affiliation.  Being a fan of the team is irrelevant.  A sport team is chosen because it fits the gang's identity needs and has meaning through either in name or the logo.  Acronyms are created from a sport team’s names, and meaning is derived from the logo.  For example the Peoples Nation wear the Dallas Cowboys since its logo is a five-point star, the Miami Dolphins since Miami is the acronym for “may I admit my insanity," and the Adidas brand since Adidas is the "all disciples is dead Allah said."
