Violent street gang MS-13 puts Long Island towns in its grip

Late at night, when helicopters thrum overhead and spotlights beam down onto lawns, many people here know exactly what's going on.

"You just think, 'Oh, God, whose child is it now?'" said Stephanie Spezia, a longtime resident of this suburb in the heart of Long Island that is caught in the grip of a violent street gang with Central American ties, MS-13.

MS-13 has been blamed for a trail of 11 corpses of mostly young people discovered in woods and vacant lots in Brentwood and neighboring Central Islip since the start of the school year.

The bloodshed in the two blue-collar towns has gotten the attention of President Donald Trump, who says the killings are the result of lax immigration policies that let too many criminal "scum" slip through.

MS-13 is everywhere. They recruit from the new Hispanic immigrants.

They were active in my kid's high school.

Why are you posting this hate speech? Jorge Busho already said we conservatives must show them compassion. They’re his children, after all.

Feds need to classify gangs as terrorist organizations and start from there. Shoot on sight.

Bad, bad, bad.

Some of the MS-13 gang have Che Guevara tattoos. That’s definitely not a good sign.

Hopefully they are being targeted for a major round-up.

Wonder whom the parents of those dead children voted for in the past election? Wonder whom they would vote for today?

They have to be caught and convicted of some other crime first. Only criminal illegal aliens are being removed.

These used to be relatively peaceful towns. The violence started a few years after Obama accepted those unaccompanied young men who were smuggled in from Central America and transplanted them to these towns.

Well, if they are terrorists, all they need is a job, and they are cured! Long Island is the perfect place to try out this liberal “truthiness.”

I grew up in a small LI town, West Hempstead, in the 50s-60s, and I can't even recall a single minority in the entire high school.

Perhaps they should put a bounty on all of their heads, so anyone can shoot on site.

The rise of these gangs is a direct consequence of venal weak governance. Self seeking politicians CANNOT and WILL NOT expel the Latin invaders. Indeed the Latin has now placed their own in positions of authority and they are busy advocating further and ultimately total conquest.

Jorge Busho criticized his constituents because we demanded he enforce immigration laws and common sense border patrol. His response? He chastised us for not being "compassionate conservatives."

George Bush was the reason we got O'Dummy. The GOPe was the reason we got O'Dummy for a second term.

I understand. It’s frustrating.

The libs would go crazy and support the gangs if they started rounding them up.
