the Saints have more access to resources and more power than the Roughnecks. The Roughnecks commit criminal acts for profit, while the Saints just do it for entertainment.

# data[].attributes.body
The saints seemed to be more privileged, reckless and unchecked (all had expensive cars-- pulled pranks for no reason etc), while the roughnecks were sticking together for survival--they weren't delinquents for the adrenaline (it even said roughnecks stole for profit, not for thrills )

Secret deviance and class privilege, Cate, Ashley

# data[].attributes.body
Both groups, the Saints and the Roughnecks engaged in deviant and delinquent behavior, but one group was more targeted, the group with more infamy in the school and the community. Saints have a class advantage over Roughnecks, which lets them get away with the same amount of crimes as Roughnecks with ease.

# data[].attributes.body
Communities treat and look at both groups differently depending on how they look. The Roughnecks do bad things but not as much as the saints. The saints are well dressed, mannered and had nice cars so the community would look away from their doing

# data[].attributes.body
Crime is looked at differently when biases/prejudices are put into the equation. Both saints and Roughnecks have stigmas and stereotypes everyone expects them to fulfill-- (also take note at what group most likely gets away with crime/deviance... money= power, and the roughnecks obviously did not have that privilege)

# data[].attributes.body
The society the gangs were a part of did not judge the deviant groups as harshly as they should have. Some of their actions people weren't aware of, but for other actions they knew about, they just didn't care as much. If they weren't dressed so nice they probably would have faced more scrutiny.

# data[].attributes.body
The saints dont have the same problems as the Roughnecks because they have better resources and power over the Roughnecks. The saints did their doings for fun 2 days out of the week but the Roughnecks commit their acts for survivial

# data[].attributes.body
Groups of people are being judged based on appearances rather than their actions. Both Saints and Roughnecks are involved in crimes but only one of them are receiving punishment and attention for them. While the other is being left alone.

# data[].attributes.body
The stigma between the two groups. They both commit the same crimes. Although The Roughnecks appearance affect how they are seen and so they have a stigma that is attached to them from the labeling based on their class and appearance.

# data[].attributes.body
There was two groups of boys from the same high school who were both involved in delinquent behavior. The one group, Saints, were less targeted because they were well-manned, well-dressed, and had nice cars. The Roughnecks were more targeted because they were of a lower status. The Saints did these acts of crime for fun, from time to time.

# data[].attributes.body
The Roughnecks don't have the same access to certain resources as the Saints do. Which makes them go to further extents to obtain them.

# data[].attributes.body
The Saints are able to get away with certain levels of deviance, while the Roughnecks are viewed as bad kids within their community

# data[].attributes.body
The Saints technically have more ability to perform criminal acts since they have more money and own their own cars whereas the The Roughnecks have to borrow their parent's cars and they steal because of the little they have.

# data[].attributes.body
Because the Saints were more wealthy and well- dressed they were treated differently by the public than the Roughnecks. the Saints also had access to cars and better ways to avoid punishment

# data[].attributes.body
Having access to power and wealth gave the Saints the advantage of being able to go undetected in their crimes since people did not think of them as the "type" of people to commit crimes like that. They didn't face many consequences because their families probably had pretty high status in their community, so law enforcement wouldn't want to upset their families by arresting them or pressing charges. There's a bias that people who have things don't do the same things that people who don't have things do.

# data[].attributes.body
there are two groups involved in deviant behaviors in their neighborhoods but the wealthier, well-mannered group continuously gets away with it and the lower class group is looked down upon when committing similar acts.

# data[].attributes.body
You can see the stigma difference even in the way this piece is written-- when describing the saints, they make note that these pranks are often not serious, the boys are usually well-mannered and had nice cars. Then while talking about roughnecks they stick harsh and unfair labels onto them because of their background/income. This could turn into a self-fulfilling prophecy or feed into confirmation bias.

# data[].attributes.body
Both groups are trouble makers but one group is allowed to keep going due to their status and one is looked down upon because their less privileged than the other group.

# data[].attributes.body
The crimes/gangs are looked at differently although the kids go to the same school and are committing similar crimes.

# data[].attributes.body
Since the Saints have more money, more power they were less targeted and their acts of crime were kind of just blown off and forgotten about. The Roughnecks were more known and people would kind of look out for the crimes.

# data[].attributes.body
There's been a stigma placed upon them based on their looks and class. Due to that they were seen as delinquents and bad kids.

# data[].attributes.body
The saints were privileged. They barely had consequences because they had enough money to dress properly, drive nice cars and pay their way out of consequences.

# data[].attributes.body
The Saints are more wealthier, and have better connections. It is easier for them to get away for their crimes.

# data[].attributes.body
Since they were richer and less subject to negative stigmas, they could get away with similar things more easily. For example, they would make holes in the road and pretend to sympathize for drivers who went into them. Since the Roughnecks were seen as delinquents more than the Saints, they could never get away with this.

# data[].attributes.body
Because of the biases in relation to economic status, the roughnecks were labeled as delinquents and rebels. With money comes power, and considering they did not come from backgrounds of the saints, they had very low social status/power.

# data[].attributes.body
There was a stigma placed onto the two groups based on their class, looks, how they dressed, and how they treated others. The Saints committed these crimes from time to time as something for fun, while the Roughnecks did this like everyday. The Saints would do a prank, but they added that they would have sympathy for their acts.

# data[].attributes.body
the saints were seen as "good boys" who occasionally harmlessly pranked the public meanwhile the roughnecks were seen as "not-so-well-dressed, not-so-well-mannered, not-so-rich boys." these labels simply gave the roughnecks more reason to rebel and "live up to their name" since they were already being excluded from society. it also gave the saints more reason to continue to do what they do since they had no consequences.

# data[].attributes.body
The Saints have money and status, to back them up even if they get in trouble, people are less likely to punish them in fear of getting in their bad books or because they don't think kids with these privilege would ever do wrong. The Roughnecks on the other hand don't have such luxuries meaning they are subjected to harsher punishment and stigmas, and when do commit deviant acts its for monetary gain rather than entertainment.

# data[].attributes.body
Saints are labeled as good boys who just did occasional pranks while the rough necks were viewed as delinquents

# data[].attributes.body
Saints:
- Seen as good kids that occasionally pull pranks on people
- Well-dressed
- could do good in school if they applied themselves
* this leads to creating the mindset that their behavior is okay and they can keep getting away with it because they aren't being punished

Roughnecks:
- violent delinquents
- students who have given up
- constantly involved with police
- petty thieves
* they keep behaving deviantly because people have come to expect it. they followed the subjective stigmas placed on them

# data[].attributes.body
Being able to have access to power or being wealthy was an advantage because they had more money and was dressing nicer so they wouldn't get in as much trouble.

# data[].attributes.body
They had higher status so they could away with things easier

# data[].attributes.body
The Roughnecks had a bad reputation from their communities viewpoint due to negative stigmas placed against them due to being a a lower class. The society had lower expectations of the Roughnecks, expecting them not to succeed compared to the Saints. Deviant acts are difficult to get away with as the  "not-so-well-dressed", "not-so-well-mannered", "not so rich boys".

# data[].attributes.body
Even though the Saints are arguably committing far worse felonies than the Roughnecks, they get little to no punishment since based on their status and life style they are perceived to be well mannered boys from respectable homes, so that label blinds society from their true character and focus on the surface impression. And so for the Roughnecks because the way they look is less appealing they are labeled as the only group heading for trouble and crime.

# data[].attributes.body
Because they were seen as lower class, they were treated that way - and punished more severely.

# data[].attributes.body
The saints had access to cars and nice clothes to uphold a civilized appearance. They were seen as good kids that made some bad decisions. they could avoid punishment easily

# data[].attributes.body
The Saints were more wealthy and their acts of crime were kind of just ignored and they didn't have consequences. The parents of the boys probably had a lot of status in the community which was an advantage for the boys.

# data[].attributes.body
Their crimes weren't taken lightly. Class, and money being the main contributors.  Because of the stigmas that they had put on them they were treated differently and viewed as bad kids compared to the saints

# data[].attributes.body
The Roughnecks didn't have cars, so they were more visible. They weren't able to get around as easily as the Saints so they were kind of in the same area. They had a bad reputation and I feel that people would look for their crimes.

# data[].attributes.body
Society already put negative labels on the roughnecks, so they're more likely to look for the roughneck's deviant behavior rather than the saints'.

# data[].attributes.body
Due to their lower status and society's perception on the roughnecks their punishments were more severe

# data[].attributes.body
Because the Saints came from a high class status with wealthy backgrounds and respected families, they are easily denied by society to be associated with anything crime related. If they were caught in being involved with something then it would just be seen as a "misunderstanding." Because anyone who is well dressed or well mannered has no connection to delinquency.

# data[].attributes.body
That the Saints are good boys who go for occasional prank every now and then, which makes them more confident and willing to even mess with the police and show themselves to their victims as they are aware they most likely won't be punished. While the Roughnecks are delinquents who commit crimes and are their way to organized crime or prison, they are much more stealthy with crimes(excluding fighting), and avoid confrontation with police as they will most likely be arrested.

# data[].attributes.body
They weren't able to get around because they didn't have cars so when they did commit crimes they were visible. They also had a bad reputation. So the crimes that they committed weren't taken lightly.

# data[].attributes.body
Because they are of lower status with no cars of their own, little to no money, and improper attire, they matched the look of a group responsible for delinquent behavior. If they looked dirty then that meant they were guilty and should receive the harshest punishment. Regardless of how small the crime is. People believed that looks somehow reflect character.

# data[].attributes.body
The Saints were seen as good boys, with a good future ahead of them, making it harder to see fault with them, and even they did they didn't want jeopardize the futures of such good boys over "pranks". The Roughnecks were bad boys with only crime and metal bars in their futures, so no one bother to give any second chances or look the other way as delinquents such them.
