BRENTWOOD, N.Y. The old minivan appeared near the school on a Tuesday morning, its Illinois plates the only thing out of place in the blue-collar suburbs of central Long Island. But as backpack-toting teenagers passed by on their way to Brentwood High, the vans doors suddenly swung open.
Out sprang members of the violent street gang MS-13, armed with baseball bats.
They attacked three 16-year-old students they suspected of being rivals before driving off. When police spotted the van in the same neighborhood the following afternoon and surrounded it at gunpoint, the MS-13 members were in the midst of trying to abduct a fourth.
We were going to take him somewhere private and beat him to death, said Miguel Rivera, 20, according to a Suffolk County indictment.
The Dec. 6 arrests of Rivera and four others thwarted what police say would have been the sixth murder of a Brentwood High School student by MS-13 in less than two years.
But the incident also shook the school for another reason.
All but one of those arrested attended Brentwood, according to Suffolk County police. Three were unaccompanied minors who had been caught at the border and then placed in the community by a federal refugee program.
From New York to Virginia to Texas, schools in areas racked by MS-13 violence are now struggling with a sobering question. What to do when the gang isnt just in your community, but in your classrooms?
For the past year, the Trump administration has waged a nationwide crackdown on MS-13. Nowhere has this effort been more intense than in Suffolk County, where police say the gang has committed 27 murders since a surge of unaccompanied minors began arriving in 2013.

No, say it ain’t so. / Sarc
Dreamers?
What do you do? You go in to the school, you take them out and either deport them or jail them. Make that gang ILLEGAL. I don’t see why this is so hard to grasp. If you’re illegal and you are in a gang make it ILLEGAL. My Goodness. Why we should even be debating this is so flipping sad. Get your kids out of public school.
I got to see the whole article with a clean cache - if you can’t see the rest, FRemail me and I’ll send it to you..

The border becomes less secure with every Democrat elected to Federal office and with every Democrat appointed to the Federal Judiciary.

Why would the WaPo publish this? Have they decided to dabble in some actual news as a sideline?

“For the past year, the Trump administration has waged a nationwide crackdown on MS-13”
You sure this is in the Washington Post? are you sure it wasn’t “the Trump administration has waged a war against Hispanics, calling them very very bad people and criminals.”
