A non-profit organization formed to help raise awareness for angle identification. In order to be a member, one has to go through an arduous application process that includes but is not limited to understanding the difference between acute and obtuse angles.
The origin of the name "212 Gang" comes from an unfortunate run-in with an adult man in the workplace mis-naming an acute angle to be 222°. When the misinformation was brought to his attention he corrected the angle to 212°.
Those in the 212 Gang work together to prevent such tragedies from happening in the work place.
Make sure you check your angles or else the 212Gang will whip out their protractors.
