Mass Deportations Create Fear Of Increased Gang Violence In Central America
Daily Caller ^ | 4/6/17 | Alex Pfeiffer

Posted on 04/08/2017 7:31:35 AM PDT by markomalley

If the U.S. maintains its goal of increasing deportations, gang violence in Central America is set to boom, according to an analysis from a think tank Thursday.

The report from Crisis Group addressed the history of gangs in El Salvador, Honduras, and Guatemala, which the think tank said are “the product of mass deportation, social stresses, family breakdown and institutional weaknesses in countries that fail to distribute adequately the wealth they produce among their citizens.”

Due to this situation, the Soros-funded think tank said that increased deportations will likely increase violence in an already crime-ridden region.

In recommendations to the U.S. government, the group wrote that the Trump administration should “refrain from instigating mass deportations or harsher anti-migration measures” against immigrants from El Salvador, Honduras, and Guatemala.

This is unless the U.S. pays “proper attention to returnees’ employment and vocational needs,” and investments in the communities in those countries. Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras are all in the top four countries of origin for illegal immigrants in the U.S.

Crisis Group wrote in the report that Mara Salvatrucha, also known as MS-13, gained strength once thousands of criminal Salvadorans were deported back to their country in the 1990s. A recent affidavit from an FBI agent revealed that are over 6,000 members of MS-13 in the United States, and over 30,000 in Central American nations.

Members of MS-13 allegedly mutilated the body of a teenager in a recent murder in rural Virginia. Powered by Boohle

If their countries don’t want them, they are free to imprison or kill them.

New York mayor says it is more peaceful in that city now and that crime dropped with the addition of criminal aliens.

I wonder who is hiding or manipulating the records.

The absurd, balmy, and obviously unhinged opinion expressed in the article is so steeped in unreality I’m forced to regard it as fake news.

I think they are implying that good, honest, hardworking people turn into gang members if repatriated.

Guess this means I should be worried that the illegals returning/being returned to their countries will cause violence there instead of here...NOT going to happen. Deport them all ASAP!

Well, they could be sent to the Philippines for a helicopter ride.

They could be sent halfway to the Philippines, and left to their own devices ...

Even more silly if that is what they are implying.

I might add — the good honest working people here in the States will thrive here if they not terrorized by illegal gang members.

>In Guatemala, an estimated 80 per cent of extortions are commanded from prison. El Salvador’s gang-run extortions have been described as a “system of terror that subjects community dwellers to see, hear and remain silent”.

Not if I ran the prison.

I was thinking it was classic lib justification. The OP says gangs are ““the product of mass deportation, social stresses, family breakdown and institutional weaknesses in countries that fail to distribute adequately the wealth they produce among their citizens.”

Therefore - they suggest part of the reason people join gangs is that wealth is not evenly distributed. A whole lib-paint-job right there. Deportation and capitalism are the lib whipping boys.

The U S government has been supporting thousands of illegal inmate families from many countries. While working in corrections for thirty years I’ve worked with many illegal immigrants that intentionally worked at getting a 5 to 8 years sentence to work in UNICOR. Federal prison industries, while locked up they can make 4 to 6 hundred a month, piece work, longevity pay to send home while food,rec,medical,housing,clothing are free. Much better and safer than on the street and no taxes. They planned to retire when we deported them after time served

Trump and his people should cite this study as proof:

We need to send more illegal criminals back to their home country to do what they do, commit murder and crimes!

Don’t call it deportation as the left dislikes that word. In the future we are simply repatriating the scum. It’s entirely different. Yes, repatriating them to their homeland. How nice!
