Get Down!!!
Alan SmitheePenpusher
In a city where gangs rule the streets and fight each other for food, water, shelter, guns & ammo, and territory. On the outskirts of the city is where utopias of no crime is around, but for how long? These gangsters have been treated like nothing by these politicians, who dump caviar and gold like nothing, they control the police departments, government, and the people. A group of close friends met a police officer who knew how to drive the politicians out of power, but they first had to stop their own city from tearing itself apart.

Who is the main character, the protagonist?
Amidst all this anarchy, what is the inciting incident? What, specifically triggers the protagonist into action?
What is his (or her) objective goal? An objective goal is a positive statement of what the protagonist wants to achieve or possess. “Drive the politicians out of power” and “stop their city from tearing itself apart” don’t really qualify as objective goals because they only (vaguely) state what is to be eliminated, not what is to be instituted instead.

How about boiling it down a bit.
“In a futuristic dystopia, a group of young radicals and a sympathetic policeman, battle to overthrow the local power structure before the city tears itself apart”.

Sounds fucking amazing except I’m still unsure as Who the main character is and what prompted the main character to go through such effort to take the politicians out of power and after they are out of power (if they are) wouldn’t that just cause chaotic behaviour from the terririorial gangs just doing the exact same thing but on the outskirts of the city, unless they fuse into one big gang in the first place but that would just seem set-up and fake, perhaps just make the main character be the one who gets the politician out of power? But to do so he has to sacrifice his group and the sympathetic police officer?
