Mega-prison in El Salvador for 40,000 suspected gangsters – which has only 80 beds for every 100 inmates - welcomes its first new inmates with vow 'You will never walk out of here'

A mega-prison in El Salvador has opened its doors for its first 2,000 inmates of suspected gang members - who upon their arrival found out there are not enough beds for everyone and there are no mattresses at all.

The facility is designed to house 40,000 suspected gangsters and the security minister for the Central American country warned inmates they 'will never walk out of here'.

The move to the high-tech prison follows President Nayib Bukele's 'war' on crime.

Bukele tweeted that 'at dawn, in a single operation, we transferred the first 2,000 members to the Center for the Confinement of Terrorism (CECOT)' - which he claims is the largest mega-prison in the Americas.

Bukele added: 'This will be their new house, where they will live for decades, all mixed, unable to do any further harm to the population.'

They were loaded onto buses, hands and feet in shackles, to be taken to the new prison in a convoy that included helicopters.

The president posted a video showing barefoot, tattooed men wearing only white boxers, bent over and with their hands behind their shaven heads.

They were stacked closely together, each sitting with his legs on either side of the man in front of them as armed guards in balaclavas look on.

At the new facility, the men were similarly stacked up before being led in large groups into their cells, where they are left sitting on the floor before stacked metal beds with no mattresses visible.

'We are eliminating this cancer from society,' justice and security minister Gustavo Villatoro said on Twitter.

'Know that you will never walk out of CECOT, you will pay for what you are... cowardly terrorists,' he added.

AND the rest of the gang members are crossing the southern border knowing we have lax laws and no punishments.

Turn on the AC full blast. Turn off the heaters at night. One bedsheet. Make them cuddle up to keep warm. They’ll learn to love.

The other option is to put them to work in Chinese factories like the Yuigers.

We should be paying for the prison. Fine by me.

That tattoo money must be way up there.

The gangs made it easy by tattooing themselves.

Out of an estimated 70,000 gangsters, over 60,000 are behind bars. The most violent country in the world has a crime rate now of basically zero. The killers are in jail, and ordinary people are free. The Soros NGOs and the politicians who were in bed with them are livid, but the people themselves are fine with it.

A key component is that gangsters are not allowed to communicate with the outside world, so they can no longer run the gangs from inside. Previously guards, cops, and judges were easily threatened in a small country where they know where you live and your kids go to school. Those days are over.

It would be possible to make Chicago safe. But you’d have to be willing to do what it takes to make it safe.

I think public flogging would be better/cheaper and even more humane. The number of lashes could be determined by the crime and increased with each conviction.

To save money. They could all be put on an uninhabited island with food parachuted in once a week. Same gang. They’ll get along. Put some sheep on the island.

Know that you will never walk out of CECOT, you will pay for what you are... cowardly terrorists.

It’s what we need at least three of the in America.
