It is more like a revolution than a riot. Over 15 million strong.

Excellent, that leaves just 99,981...
>>19 arrests were made overnight in a raid targeting a violent San Fernando Valley gang<<
>>The task force that served the warrants and made the arrests involved 900 local and federal law enforcement officers and nine police helicopters<<
That works out to 47 officers per arrest.
900 officers times $20 (hourly wage) = $18,000 times 8 (one shift)- $144,000 divided by 19(number arrested)= $7,578 per arrest.
I know the hourly wage is too low, but I'm hoping they weren't all involved for the full shift. The cost for an officer is closer to $95 per hour when the patrol car and vacation/sicktime are added on. I didn't include $1800 per hour for the helicopters or $57 a day for jail or ?? for 19 public attornies or for ?? judges.
I have a gut feeling that they are rounding these violent criminals up nationwide because they are fearful of riots this summer.
YYeessss!!!

That would certainly stir things up. Americans have been mesmerized for far to long by the constant droning of our leaders that everything's gonna be ok, just leave it to me. Well, we left it to you and you sold us out. We work 50 or 60 hours a week just to keep our heads above water, we're taxed to death in order to achieve "social justice" and we're ignored by the people we elected to look after things who generally only look after themselves. We need something to jolt us out of our comlacency.
Well, yes, but they have to send tactical teams, not patrol officers. They shot Ofc Pavelka with an AR15
Goes way beyond LA. Violent gangs are nearly everywhere. M 13 is scattered nationwide, including NY and up and down the eastcoast. They are some of the most violent. The ultra-violent, U.S.-trained elite, Mexican paramilitary commandos known as the "Zetas," responsible for hundreds of murders along the border this year, have expanded their enforcement efforts on behalf of a drug cartel by setting up trafficking routes in six U.S. states.
A U.S. Justice Department memo says the U.S.-trained units have recently moved operations into Houston, San Antonio and the states of California, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Georgia and Florida. They have been operating in Dallas for at least two years, according to the feds.
I didn't see any names of the perps.
Of course not. That would reveal that they are either black or Mexican. And that would be racist.

I was wondering if any of Mayor Villar's family was swept up in the raid.
ping to 6 and the thread
Hey, I'm impressed. Usually it reads "after a two year investigation," this 18-month investigation must mean they are doing better. Personally, I don't think it ahould take 18 months either but this "is" progress.

Well, I think they had to let some of these idiots sneak back in from Mexico....
Still, it is a drop in the bucket.
