El Salvador Arrests 6,000 Gang Members In 10 Days
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 апр 2022
- El Salvador has continued its crackdown on what officials are calling a war on gangs as the government has arrested 6,000 gang members in response to a killing spree in March. The rise in gang violence caused a countrywide state of emergency, but advocates claim some of the the efforts are creating a framework for abuse.

"Retaliate and we'll see how long your homeboys last" that is the most gangster thing I've heard any politician say lol. Dayum.
@@gatothumbup
You shut up
Yeah that was gangsta
LMAO 🤣
and he took away lawful rights to an attorney and refuses to engage in calm discourse about his actions, instead straw manning and using charismatic speech giving and group punishments for the actions of those who aren't even in the group effectively using them as hostages. Because he is a gangster.

Well he got thr majority of the population behind him. Democracy I guess.
Finally a person with the balls to stand up to these criminals.
not really, this number is small... not to mention the prisons are overrun w them

Good now ask yourself how are you going to prevent these kind of gangs forming again?
@@patrick-bu3eqArresting Them helps a lot Crime has rapidly decreased in El Salvador you cant stop crime but you Can reduce it
you should ask why they joined a gang in the first place? Don't get me wrong but these people are monsters but victims too of their surroundings. @@emilfrederiksen.1622
@patrick-bu3eq That’s a good point, and it's what I was thinking. Arresting is a great first step. But the education and job market needs to ensure that people won't go back to gangs.
The govt has to work outside of crime chasing to better itself so people don't feel compelled to join gangs. And doing the cultural shift to make sure gang life isn't desirable.
Watch out we're thinking too much ;)@@DualPippa
he said “come and take the gang members if you love them so much” i’m crying, but he’s right. you worried about the rights of gang members who are taking away the rights of the citizens in that country.
They are taking the LIVES of the people, not just the rights of the normal people. That is what criminals do.
Those criminals should also be killed like they killed the innocent
@@mandapalque at the same time they are loyal to the gang and not the country. So gang’s essentially are their own government. And I see it as war against terrorists no human rights exist.
@@manuelm5744 I can care less about terrorists rights, terrorists don't care, respect ANYTHING, they should be enslaved. By those gang members being loyal to their gang = they are loyal to brutalize, terrorize, exhort, k!ll other people, how much good do them do to the society? Nothing. They MUST be eliminated and treated like monsters as they are. In order for a person to become and be loyal to a gang they must be narcissist people.
We know that the opposition in El Salvador, and the terrorists, thieves, murderers of false human rights watch, are desperate, because they are running out of their great business of crime, death and destruction in El Salvador.✌👍😁
As someone who has had two cousins brutally murdered by people like this, I support this. My cousins were fathers that were chased down and brutally murdered in front of their family because they refused to join. People were threatened if they picked up their body too soon to show others what they are capable of. I have no sympathy for them, they are being showed more mercy then my cousins were.
may your relatives rest in peace
My condolences for your loss, my father almost lost his life because he refused to join.
Accept my condolences. I'm sorry to hear that happened to your family members.
I hope the progress made in arresting and locking up gang members continues to be a success.
@@Sheridantank yea very tragic that they chose to join a gang and very tragic that you don’t even understand the situation. Although many are forced to join many aren’t and they choose that lifestyle and maybe before you choose to open your mouth on a situation you don’t know anything about maybe you should educate yourself instead of excusing how they murder many innocent people. Entire families are murdered for no real reason, adults and babies alike are killed with no real mercy so yea very tragic.
@@shronkler1994 thank you I appreciate it ❤️
For anyone that has not lived in Latin America, Mexico or specifically El Salvador. You will never understand what it means to fear for your family because Gangs run your life, your jobs and money. What he is doing is giving us freedom and hope from years of Pain and destruction on our Society. The MS13 has given Salvadorians a bad light, to a point where people abroad in 1st world countries can only think of crime when
El Salvador is brought up.
He has changed that
Mexico is bad but it is only in some regions like Sinoloa and Tijuana where Cartel Violence is really places like Mexico City and Southern Mexico is not as bad.
liberals love criminals, no matter what you tell them.
Luckily, I came to El Salvador at a time when his plan was advanced 😊
Has this improved the country since?
@@darkness4382where are you from? You don't have any friend or family in salvador that can tell you how better it is,, if not just Google how many people died in let say in 2010 and how many in 2022 and see for your self how much improved
In the U.S.A. these people are often referred to as "victims".
That 'If any gang hurts any innocent people then we'll take away the food from all your homeboys in prison and see how long they last' line was the single most badass thing i've ever heard.
@Eddie Davis god would forgive them, Let Saint Lucifer handle them......
if only it was true.😔
@@iwi2042 God/Allah forbids killing the innocent or fighting and dealing for drugs. But I won't say too much only God can judge. With some members if they're not in the cartel they're dead

It's not Abuse it's reconstructing a Country.
So proud of this President, shows he really cares for his people. 👏👏
Agreed! Finally a little common sense is being shown by a President who will not be corrupted by the gangs and who cares about the common law abiding citizen.
@@stefanschleps8758 and common sense that it wont be a soft hand that will fix the issues his country needs fixing
I'm liberal and pro human rights. But it's one thing to be a critic and another to actually govern. With the crazy gang problems they got there, I get why their president is cracking down.
🙏
I MEAN !!!
As an American 🇺🇸, this is something we’re proud to see around the world. Great job El Salvador 🇸🇻
"As an American" ? What a stupid useless prequalifying statement.
Ya but in America it's just racism and drug charges... The USA is a sad country as proven by the crime rate. When every other developed country has less crime.
*One year later after this initial crackdown, El Salvador went from being the deadliest and most violent country in the world to THE SAFEST in all of Latin America -- and even much safer than the United States. That's an empirical irrefutable fact. The only people whose hearts bleed for murderers and criminals are deranged extreme lefty loons, and I say that as an actual LIBERAL. Vamos Bukele!
america, capitalism in endstage, have money or die. America should start working in own country :D
Why did you type US like that lol, Americans are whacky
Only those people that they lived in fear and tears, can tell how happy they are now!!! Thanks to Mr. President Nayib Bukele, the man who came and gives peace to El Salvador!! God bless this Man!!!
The fact he said “I’ll starve your homies” and sent a video out for parents to show their kids that gangs only got two options, prison or death 🎉
Fantastico!
He said boys not kids
Or you know, you can create a system where your children do not think about joining a gank in the first place?
Oh jeez but that would require to do actual restructuring, can't have that now.
@@Alan0000able Gangs need new members, any such efforts to "actually restructure" will be thwarted by the gangs unless they are directly confronted, don't be naive in your compassion
@@Alan0000able Always love these 18-year plans. In the meantime.... what?
He literally said “I’ve had enough. This is complete bs.” And I can completely agree.
Sad uncle Biden doesn’t got big balls to do this. Such a shame.
I pity the gang members being mistreated in prison. They should just execute them mercifully.
They are just rounding up random people🤣🤣🤣 Just arrest any man they see. They will retaliate BRUTALLY and start a civil war
@Jaeger19Ultima lol comparing gangs with cartels? I wonder why he isn't doing this with the cartels in his country like the texis cartel or Los perrones cartel. just street gangs.
If you think about it the government is a gang too. If you don't pay taxes aka protection money you go to prison.
My sister lives in the Virginia/Maryland area where there’s a large Salvadoran community - they all say this is the best thing to happen to the country
God bless El Salvador and it's commitment to eradicating gang violence. Hopefully this will serve as an example to other countries stricken by this problem.
"They should come and take those gang members if they love them so much" Much respect to this man!!!!
🤣
Sounds similar like Trump with brutal honesty. I can tell Trump and El Salvador president would possibly unite and getting rid of criminal in Latin america (Trump wanted to do the same and ask Mexico's president to end narcos).
@@AngelloDelNorte well, he does openly support Trump administration on his Twitter account.
I never understood the logic behind those who feel empathic towards criminals. Do they ever be empathic towards the victim?? What's wrong those who are supporting the criminal and showing concerns. Where's the concern when the victim is attacked??? So sick of those hypocritical empathy. So fake and so disgusting.
I don't support any party but I do support who's being reasonable and sane when things like these happened. Crime is crime. Period. I don't care if you have a abusive family or unstable mentality or you are just poor, none of those justify the crime you commit.
@@benjaminli21
1) I'm not even surprised about El Salvador's president supporting "Orange man". Seems every person that supporting the "red side" were actually doing well for society and nation.
2) my guess is because it never happened to them and are safe in their non-thugs society/neighborhood. The ones that have unstable emotions and hypocritical sympathy are usually the "bloo side" here in usa. I'm still triggered my formal (childhood) city/town became a thug society back in California.
3) I tend to be neutral but between the two even i (Mexico heritage) would support more on "red" (or "orange man") because from experience and looks of it they're have more stability, order, and balance.
@@AngelloDelNorte I believe the society will be better if the people vote for politicians who's actually doing the job and care for improvement and development instead of some stupid party ego.
And I'm glad that you get out of those neighborhood. I think in a society like US, it's always a good idea to learn how to self defense because when bad things happen, police might not be the most helpful resource you can count on, especially anti police sentiment is rising.
Anyway good luck out there 😅
Those complaining about the way the gangbangers are being treated have never been affected by gang violence (on a daily basis) or had to live with this terror.
They can adopt them and take them home. 😅
Notice how it's all Americans/Europeans saying that stuff and everyone who's from El Salvador or in any south American country is supporting their president. 😅
I thought people were complaing that they weren't being treated harshly enough
@@Mehhhhhhhh Let me explain something to you. I am an American. The American Liberals do NOT speak for all of us.
We have the unfortunate luck to have been saddled with an out of touch, senile and corrupt politician.
There are quite a few of us that recognize President Bukele for actually doing what needs to be done to ensure the lives and safety of his people are first and foremost.
Please ignore the self righteous hooting from our liberals, leftists and other SJW's. They have no idea what it's like to live in constant fear and dread of these feral humans as the pontificate from behind gated communities and ivory towers.
@@YT-zx4wr same
Did you tell everyone how murder and crime is down 70% in 1 month !
My friend living in the USA for the first time in over 20 years is planning to visit his family living in el Salvador. Thanks to this amazing leader! 👏
Finally, a central American country is doing something about the horrendous gang problem there.
Def doesn't sound too tempting to visit. Texas chainsaw vibes.
You believe the news?
Bet they can’t feed all of them tho
@@Thr3e_deee_ Why couldn't they feed 6,000 people? My high school had 1,500 students. You really "bet" that a country with 6.5 Million people can't feed the equivalent of four high schools?
They should do the same with Honduras crimes.
This isn't abuse, this is justice. You sometimes have to go extreme in order to truly turn a country around and end gang violence.
@Tyler Clark it's opposite day

@Tyler Clark you don’t need any examples you are nobody
@@rogerguerra4576 vote for Bernie
@Tyler Clark Are you from a first world country? These are hardened criminals that don't answer to anything less than brute force. Under Bukele the homicide rate is continuing to decrease.
Honestly I think they should pass a death sentence once they confirm someone is a gang member.
Why do you hate Freedom
@@maalikserebryakov because gang members take away freedoms of innocent people trying to live a good life, so if you love freedom then we have the freedom to take away the life of the wicked
This needs to be done in the United States
Begin with CA

Police: " Challenge Accepted"
Don't worry about the cops. worry about the good people with guns
@@garyking6365 One person with a gun will be intimidated into submission because even if they pop off one gang member, they gotta now deal with potentially hundreds of gang members coming after them and their families.

That’s what prison should look like.
This is amazing! Its just a shame that it took mass tragedy to set this in motion and that there still are people against this.
People aren't against the gang members being rounded up. People live in a fantasy world if they think the issue is that simple.
People are against the consequences for innocent and falsely accused El Salvadorians whose lives are destroyed and the future of every innocent person in El Salvador when the framework for police state abuse with zero accountability is being set. Right now it's the lesser of two evils. But if and when that ceases to be the case, the abuse, killings and torture will be a lot harder to stop when it's the government of El Salvador doing it instead of street gangs.
A man who loves his people and his country, may God protect him and all of El Salvador.
Amen! 🙏🏽
EL SALVADOR IS A SOVEREIGN FREE COUNTRY. THE UNITED STATES AND THE COUNTRIES OF THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY DEFENDERS OF GANGS AND TERRORISTS SHOULD NOT INTERFERE IN OUR INTERNAL POLITICS ''👍✌
He’s gonna need a lotttt of protection after this

As a person who’s mom is from El Salvador, we really needed a president like this. He’s been the 1st ever president who stood up to these demons. Those gangs terrorized the streets, they would chop up innocent people they found. All these past presidents where either paid by gangs to keep them safe, or blackmailed/harassed. This president is the best El Salvador ever had, I hope Mexico can get a good president too like El Salvador’s.

As a Jamaican, I wish I would see something like this in Jamaica. What these human rights people never seem to get is, this is a new breed of criminal. Traditional crime-fighting techniques will not work!
Jamaica is a dump.
I think El Salvador and Jamaica should form political collaborations in effort to reduce violence.

Wow. What a Leader. Finally something is done!
Yo it's all a ploy, he was backed by cartels to get his power. This is a huge front, if you don't believe me it's okay, but he is apart of the problem
"Something", creating a system that allows police to put people in jail with no evidence. This is only seen in dictatorships.
Mexico could learn from this
@@pitomuygrande6653 not really, Mexico run by drug cartels.
USA CAN LEARN FROM THIS TOO
And we can’t do that in the USA why???
The ONGs who defend this kind of criminals should be investigated.
Great work keep the good work on
I agree with what he's doing. These gangs are merciless and unforgiving.
@@daveken9936 How do you know? I'm from Central America. I've seen their brutality first hand.
@@daveken9936 you have no idea what you’re talking about.
@@daveken9936 What? I live here in El salvador and gangs have been killing innocent people here for a long time. Come down here since you know what you are talking about.
Biden wants to bring them over here to the U.S., and award them with checks of $900 a month.
@@daveken9936 watch a video called funkytown and you will see what he means
Human rights,smh! Let him do what he needs to protect the innocent and his country!!!
I'm not sure if we are watching the same video, but they said it would create a frame work for abuse. I don't think the phrase "human rights,smh!" should be uttered, even now. The very same statement you've made directly applies to Putin, and his claims about Ukraine. I don't see anyone here arguing for gang members. They're arguing that you shouldn't arrest and potentially starve people without offering proof, allowing them access to a lawyer, or jamming them into cells for fitting a description. If the world was as simple as so many people perceive it, everyone would be a lot more intelligent than they are.
The point is that officers can now arrest anyone who looks suspicious (or even anyone they just don't like) and throw them in prison for no reason. If you don't think this is what's happening then you don't understand corruption...
@F. A. You felt the urge to reply to my comment, and you're speaking about biases...
Please be less ambiguous for me, so I can understand how you're a perfect, unbiased human?
Or are you just one of those kids that was told he's special enough to discern how others are flawed without any substance?
@@baseball12ificationHow about you ask someone from El Salvador, there have been thousands of people killed by this gangs over the years, kids who lost their parents, some body's were never found, some are found mutilated, and this has been going on for years, and when the president has 90+ approval rating I don't complaint, this people have brought pain and horror to El Salvador, 35+ death per day in a country with 6 million people, imagine that, what he is doing is what gangs have earned through their horrific actions.
@@mxs4193 Ask the people of El Salvador what they think, the pain that the population has endure because of this gangs cannot be describe, they killed thousands of innocent people, mutilated innocents, extortionate people who make less than 50$ a week for survival of a whole household, that is inhumane, that is the reality of what this people being arrested are, point being is that not anyone is being arrested, is just that gangs have grown to and insane number through the last two decades.
Our government would house them in hotels
Nayib Bukele is The Real Hero for El Salvador Country....imagine Mexico or Columbia President dares to do the same thing like him
BRO THIS DUDE IS A SAVAGE. ACTUALLY DOING SOMETHING WHEN MATTERS ARRIVE , MAN TAKES ACTION
We need this man in Mexico , bye bye narcos 😲😂
I agree but freedom of liberty is the most important thing without it they will just turn into Australia
not that hard to round up 6000 people with no evidence and present them as some sort of sign that he's cracking down on gangs. unfortunately, this kind of dog and pony show goes on in lots of countries and people like you eat it up and ask for more.
@@TDCLOL they prolly haven’t killed any of your loved one
Go live in el savador then tell me this afterwards
@@TDCLOL do you know anything about El Salvador culture and history? Because literally the maras' (Gangs) main point are their tattoos and the fact they don't hide themselves, because they are/were that powerful.
I like how he challenged the international community if they think he’s too harsh , then you come protect us!
I liked that bit too. Maybe the international community should follow up in that one indeed.
Exactly!!! He is right
Honduras has had the same problem. At one point, anyone deported back to Honduras sporting tattoos went straight to jail. And occasionally there would be a headless body of a gang member left in a public park, as warning
Or come and take them with you
@@LindaC616 and is Honduras any better now? Cause sometimes intimidation with no follow up solution will only make things worse in the long run.
Truly setting an example. Good on you Elsalvador. I wouldn't call it abuse at all considering some of the things those gang rats have done. Only wish we had a crackdown like that in the states. Gangs are a huge deal.
Good work NBC & law enforcement.
Well done to El Salvador and their President for having the guts to do this and clean up their country in order to make things safer for the citizens. I hope they succeed even more and get as much help as possible from the international community.
aren't the politicians a gang?
With the police as there gang too protect them from the gangs? 😕 Oh and that gang of bankers who Rob everyone every day via money printing...illegal money laundering, tax invasion via offshore trusts....just pointing out the obvious!
Sana all....God bless el Salvador
@Leslie Maga ooof, what happened to mexico?
Great job! ElSalvadore is famous for it's gang population.
Don't need no dang "international community". This guy knows exactly what he's doing.
Good for this guy. Doing what needs to be done for his country and doing it now! Leadership at its finest
Ignorance at its finest. Fascism these days no longer needs a guise. Just count on the broken public education system to have the masses leading themselves to the slaughter with a dumb smile on their faceZ
So you are in favor of government overreach?
@@straightlead8 if government overreach means in this case locking up people who voluntarily pleadge their allegiance to these violent gangs and choose the lifestyle of said criminal groups then I have no problem with it. And taking away their human rights? I don't think so. People have a right to lead any life you want yet one chooses to get MS-13 tatted on them and choose a life of evil, to be a pawn for drug Lords and only to equal a disposable messenger at best. And for what? So For that you have their government has the right to get rid of the wrongdoers. If you wanna hold their hand and give em a pillow tell em they'll be fine and dandy go for it. See what comes of that.
@@straightlead8 and you are in favor of criminal underground organizations running the country ???
@@straightlead8 they’re stupid mate, they don’t know that their government is testing limits. It’s tyranny and just because it’s gang members “it’s okay”. Reminds me on what they did in China in 1950’s making them obey orders or go to jail/be killed. Huh makes you wonder. They ended up adopting this type of strategy to the whole country in China.
From a US Citizen, this is how it is done. Congrats to this President. This is how you fix the trash that is destroying your country.
honestly after reading what those monsters in gangs over there did to people. I have absolutely no sympathy for them . If he did a holocaust for those prisoners. I wouldn't mind it at all.
Everyone can see this guy is doing an immense job.
Well done my man.👏👏👏👏👏
The amount of bravery and size of balls it takes to do this is amazing. We take for granted what we have here in the USA. very proud of this man for looking out for the innocent.
You do know it’s suspected gang members most of it. Could be any innocent person growing up around gangs who are targeted and suffers over this. A lot of innocent people will suffer in those prisons too. Many poor people will suffer from this too as much as it gives a sense of security. You can’t fight violence with violence and retaliations will happen, but media will downplay it
The standard of living in parts of the U.S. is actually lower than it is in parts of El Salvador. Try traveling more. El Salvador isn't as bad as you may think.
@@whodoesntlikesurfing every part of U.S residents can earn more than $12 per hours but in Elsalvador you have to be a lawyer or engeneer to earn $12 buck per hour. Can you see the difference.
@@whodoesntlikesurfing did you just tell someone to travel more ? How old are you ? You must be really unknowing if you can’t see the big difference between the two. There are poor areas everywhere, but we talking about El Salvador with half the opportunities and ten times more poverty. You def need to not just travel, but live and study more the places you go
@@whodoesntlikesurfing It's not bad for tourist with money.
My parents are both from El Salvador and even though the US media portrays Nayib Bukele as this bad guy, he's made more positive changes in less than 3 years in office than the previous 5 corrupt Salvadoran administrations. The people of El Salvador overwhelmingly support him, it's the rich and corrupt that oppose him. I applaud Bukele with his handling of these roaches in the country.
I don't think the US portrays bukele as bad, people like what he's doing
What sort of Spanish name is that? Doesn't sound Spanish or Christian to me.
Sounds more like African.
Your return to El Salvador will be smoothly
@@onlythetruth4039 he has a bit of a middle eastern background.
@@juanocampo2262 yes they think hate him but love him
Man why don’t they do that here
We have the same problem here in the USA and it needs delt with as well
I don’t feel bad for those criminals! My heart goes out to those in El Salvador and those that have sadly lost their lives because of these criminals! Love from PR!! ❤️❤️
Hopefully Puerto Rico can follow this soon..im from the us.virgin islands (20 mins plane ride to Puerto Rico), and we hear alot of the stories from our locals who go there to visit and end up inthe ghettos. Many of them are also puerto ricans whose Families moved here in the 70s .they say dont be flashy and stay far from the ghettos..
That the reason I left the island.
they only turn to crime because the country government is corrupt and provides no money opputunities for them
You don't even know who is and is not criminals. That's nazi rhetoric
what about the innocent ones though
In my 30 years of life I have never see a president who cares so much for his country and people. Wow I’m honor to see that.
Nayib Bukele has the support of 98% of the Salvadoran population.
I have a bad feeling it's going to turn out terribly for El Salvador.
@@jaguarandi2 not really it is what the majority of what the people want, it will end terrible if say usa meddles with the country as they have before
@@edwin32086 yea, the us needs to stop putting its nose in foreign affairs that dont involve tge country directly
This President has sent a way for other President who have no balls well look now and take heed all you other countries with this problem Viva El Salvador President is Stupendous
This guy is what the world needs. 👍👍👍
"Human Right's Abuse"? Ironic statement.
“I don’t care what international bodies say. They should come and protect our people”
I agree Mr. President. 67 homicides in 1 day is just inhuman. You’re doing what it takes even if it means not doing it the right way.
It is the right way, that is the only way criminals learn.
Isn't that an afternoon in America?
Its an imperfect world, letting bad people abuse the system and walk around unpunished despite everyone knowing who is guilty isn't right. At some point you just have to say enough is enough.
@@MetalheadAndNerd isn't America like 50 times bigger?
What’s the right way?
Threatening to starve the inmates if their "homeboys" decide to retaliate on random civilians... lol, this dude is hardcore.
Send them to Russia , Putin needs some new mercenaries.
Lol. And he actually did say homeboys
Thank God he is hardcore. Gangs do awful things to innocent victims. They are inhumane.
Yes!
Finally we can get back to our country in safety. Thank you president Bukele.
My guy got balls of steel, he literally said “try to retaliate and imma starve yah homies 😭
All jokes aside we gotta protect this guy I’m sure he knew taking a stand like this will put a huge target on his back but yet he still put his people first and gave them what they deserve.
This plan of punishment is just stupid, they could easily round up people to break-in to the prison and overrun
Time for him to hire a Soldier of Fortune.
You gonna protect him with a twitter tweet?
These human right NGO are aiding and abetting these criminal gangs.
Wym we gotta protect him? As far as i care, he can be thrown in there and perish lmao
