I don't generally hold too much stock to this sort of thing, but it was a text message that came to me from a fairly close friend who is a cop in the Houston Police Department. The gang Ms13 is having an initiation that starts tonight. They bump your car and when u get you they shoot you! Pass this on.
From just a casual internet search, it seems that these guys are pretty fucking scary, and there was a fairly high profile murder two years ago where an MS13 member got killed by a female member of the rival Crazy Crew gang. The murder was at Ervan Chew Park, which isn't all that far from my house.

OTOH, there are a LOT of Snopes reports that suggest that this sort of thing tends to be a hoax than not. I don't really have any confirmation other than the text message, though Dan doesn't tend to fuck around. There's nothing in the Houston Chronicle about it, nor on the HPD news release site. Still better to be careful than not.
