MS-13, or Mara Salvatrucha, has between 6,000 and 10,000 members in 46 states, according to FBI statistics.

The gang, which takes its name from the Salvadoran peasants who fought in the country’s 1980-1992 civil war, emerged in impoverished Los Angeles neighborhoods among refugees fleeing the conflict. At the time, their main purpose was to protect a nascent Salvadoran community against more established African-American and Mexican gangs, law-enforcement experts say.

Since the late 1980s, the gang has spread to Central American communities across the US. Its members are involved in drugs and sex trafficking. Some are affiliated with Mexican drug cartels.

Pockets of MS-13 operate in Brooklyn and Queens. But the gang is most active among Latino immigrant enclaves in Suffolk County, where more than 400 members are believed to operate.

El Salvador is often considered the Central American country where Spanish culture made the smallest dent on the original Indian culture. Total coincidence that it sucks so bad.

Give me a break! I don't know the author's political bias or what "law-enforcement experts" she consulted, but why does she claim that MS-13 started as a sort of "Guardian Angels" or neighborhood watch?

In fact - from their very start - they have been involved in criminal activity and other Salvadorians have numbered largely among their victims.

No one would claim that early in the 20th century the Sicilian mafia (Cosa Nostra) arose to protect Italians from the Neapolitan mafia (Camorra).

We have a winner!

The Demon Rats are far worse than MS-13 who are, in fact, sponsored by the Rats.

None of this insurrection is accidental. Until the targets of the violence become government leaders, nothing effective will be done.

Bullshit journalistic romanticism. The gang takes its name from a street in a crime infested slum in San Salvador.

For Demonicrats, their trial, conviction, sentencing, and hanging will be required learning in U.S. grade schools, so that children know what they must do when traitors again try to pervert the Constitution by giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
