As for Chris Gaines asking if we feel the same contempt for Peter Thiel, this is a false equivalence. One case is civil law, the other is criminal. But really, I'm just throwing that on the pile. The big difference between Gawker and the MS-13 criminals is that there was never an attempt to conceal or otherwise obfuscate Thiel's involvement/funding in the case. Overall, it's a non issue for me. I'm just looking for reasons to take a shit on Soros and SJWs whenever possible.
In regard to MS-13 vs our own "domestic gangs." Again, you're making a false equivalence. It's like the liberal SJWs who respond to radical Islamic terrorism by pointing out the Christians who've blown up abortion clinics or taken shots at abortion providers. Both things are bad, but at the present time, one is worse than the other, be it due to the size of the problem, the level of aggression, the ability to contain, etc. MS-13 is worse because outside the inner city slums, Bloods and Crips aren't really an issue. Bloods and Crips know their place. They know if they go fucking around in nice places, they'll pay dearly for it. MS-13 operates without regard for territory. It's comprised of illegals who are illegal due to their own disregard for territory. They fuck with people who aren't involved in the gang culture. Many of them are off the grid. Fun fact, illegals change names about as often as a SJW changes their underwear and bathes. Even your average Blood has a birth certificate on file somewhere, and at least one or two people who can make a positive ID.
MS-13 was started in Southern California by the children of Salvadoran immigrants back in the 80's. Some of those people were born in the United States and were United States Citizens. Many weren't born in the United States, but were here legally. Some were obviously here illegally. The gang has evolved since then and now includes many, many people who are United States Citizens, many legal immigrants to the United States, many illegal immigrants in the United States, and many people outside of the United States, not just El Salvador, but throughout Latin America. The statement "it's comprised of illegals (Is 'comprised of' even proper English?)" is inaccurate. There are definitely tons of illegal members, but many members who are in the United States are here legally, and many are also citizens. In the D.C. area, the gang mostly operates outside of major cities, Langley Park, Wheaton, Arlington, Gaithersburg, and Rockville, probably in that order. In Southern California, they tend to operate in both urban and suburban areas.
What are you, the public defender for MS-13 now?
It doesn't matter whether some members of MS-13 are legal citizens of the USA. It matters that some of them are illegals, that the gang itself is, therefore, strengthened by illegal immigration, and that many voters DO NOT WANT America to crack down on them.
