El Salvador has imprisoned another 2,000 suspected gang members as part of President Nayib Bukele's major crackdown against organized crime and drug cartels with the nation.

The 2,000 arrived this week at the Center for the Confinement of Terrorism, a large-scale prison authorities have touted as inescapable, the New York Post reported.

Bukele announced the mass incarceration via Twitter, asserted that the facility is now home to 4,000 inmates after he launched an earlier crackdown. Included in the post is a video of prisoners in the facility, many of whom sport gang tattoos.

No need for any judicial intervention.

MS-13 self-identifies their crimes by covering their entire bodies with tattoos documenting their murders, rapes, dismemberments, etc.

For every one that they lock up down there, about 5 are coming over the border.

I wonder how many of those countries have been emptying out their prisons, a la Castro and the boat lift.

Really. It's kind of strange. What can they be thinking?

They aren’t simply criminals. They are a military organization. Their tattoos are their uniforms. If you don’t get tattooed, you get killed.

Wow, that is absolutely dystopian. Like something from a Harlan Ellison novel.

How many are claiming political asylum here?

They would get it if they asked. They probably are already.

Everybody else from south of the border and anywhere else are.

Can we hire Bukele for AG?

How much is he making? Offer double.

Tell him he can have Garland for a play thing.

Their own version of Pelican Bay. The worst of the worst. No turning them around. Cheaper to put them on an island with a drop-off of food. Better yet build another Roman Coliseum. Different gangs fight for their freedom. A reality version of pro football.

“MS-13 self-identifies their crimes by covering their entire bodies with tattoos documenting their murders, rapes, dismemberments, etc. ”
One of my friends who was a Ventura County sheriff deputy pointed out that they are easy to identify in a police lineup.

And this facility will prove to have been a superb training center when a future Leftist government decides it needs shock troops...

Where they will be bussed to the border, outfitted with comfortable walking shoes, western/American attire, cell phones and instructions on how to get everything they need across the border for a lifetime.
