Washington Post fact-checker Glenn Kessler claimed this morning that there are in fact 1,400 MS-13 members in Fairfax County rather than 2,000

So we can quibble the numbers by a few hundred, but WTF does that matter? 1,400 are just as destructive, just somewhat smaller in number.

Gillespie and Guadagno are going to win in two weeks.

Whatever the number of MS-13 gangsters there are in Fairfax County, Virginia, that number is way too many, thanks to your present Governor, low life, Obamabot /Clinton, lover, Terry McAuliffe.

Ed Gillespie is right on the money and...I would suggest that every legal registered voter cast their vote for Ed Gillespie for Governor on November 7, 2017, election day. Less that Virginians, with Democrat, Communist, Socialist, Ralph Northham as your new Governor, Virginia will become the California cesspool swamp. Make Virginia “Red” again...just like Make America Great Again......Vote, Republican!!!

Even one MS-13 member is one too many.

Couldn't the difference be hang-abouts and others who aren't officially gang members but who are strongly associated with MS-13? I'm guessing that MS-13 has a lot of street-level drug pushers who are not members but who are exclusively linked to MS-13.

2,000 versus 1,400? Is that a big enough difference to make a big deal out of it? In the Washington Post world, it is because Gillespie is a Republican. If law enforcement has identified 1,400 MS-13 members, I'm inclined to believe that 2,000 is more correct. That's not to disparage law enforcement, just recognizing the fact that MS-13 is a secret organization that doesn't print formal membership rolls.

1400, 2000, whatever. One is too many.

“But even if Kessler’s 1,400 number is closer to the truth than Gillespie’s 2,000”

At best its a crude estimate. But they don’t exactly register when they arrive. If all the government agrees that its 1400, the 2000 is perfectly rational to believe.

And the differences between 1400 and 2000 are at best...academic.

So, Kessler has access to the MS-13 membership lists?

A few hundred right on the Arlington County and Alexandria City borders, along 4 Mile Run and from Bailey’s Crossroads to Seven Corners would easily account for any discrepancy.

The county lines are somewhat vague, even dividing some apartment and condo complexes. Undocumented illegal aliens are not the most precise sources of such info.

And many younger MS-13 thugs are avoiding the tell-tale tattoos and graffiti that identifies them.

My in-laws lived in Sterling, VA. They got the hell out. There was an MS-13 murder in their old neighborhood.

Right, and there were only 19 hijackers on September 11th, which should make us feel SO much better, because it's not like there were 20.

Too close to the capital for my comfort. They’re invaders and should be treated that way.
