I'm so freakin mad right now. I'm in class and some prick put gum under the desk. What's the best way to get this out? Also how can I do DNA testing to find this kid and punch him in the throat?

I think a heavy brush under cold water should do the trick, but I am not sure of the after-effects of doing that to denim (especially raw).

Logistically impossible since you have nothing to match the DNA to.

I've heard of putting ice on it to make it hard and then crack off as much as possible. when the gum's warm and you aggitate it, it'll just spread more into the fabric. hope that works a bit.

I have had success in freezing my jeans, sat on gum in the ******* cinema, and scraping away when it's hardened. Much like the ice method.
