They WERE gangbangers who went to protect their old folks. Just because you're in a gang doesn't mean you don't give a shit about your nana getting eaten by zombies

I disagree. For example, you're saying that the gang bangers shouldn't give a shit about their old folks. When the old lady sees the cop she immediately jumps in to defend her grandson saying "don't take him away, he's a good boy he just got into trouble he's okay now", which shows in an understated way WHY a gang banger would stay in the middle of a zombie apocalypse to defend her.

Myself, I prefer subtle things like that than being hit over the head about a character's motivation.
