Forwarded by NAFBPO. For all the talk of the Amnesty promoters, second generation (aka anchor babies) immigrants don't appear to be 'assimilating' so well.

Martin Riso was 10 when he joined his gang.

At first, he says, "it's just a neighbourhood thing here. It gives you a sense of belonging."

WTF? What happened to the "family values not stopping at the border" and "natural republicans?"

Where is this kid's family? That is where the "sense of belonging" should come from.

Inside the MS-13, America’s Most Violent Gang
by Samuel Logan

Editors Note: In THIS IS FOR THE MARA SALVATRUCHA, investigative journalist Samuel Logan offers the first English-language examination into the MS-13, which the FBI has called the “fastest growing and most violent gang in the country.” Logan follows the story of the charismatic Brenda Paz, a Honduran immigrant who was “jumped into” MS-13 at just 15 years old. She went on to become an informant for the FBI and was murdered by friend from the gang within two years of joining. Beyond illuminating Brenda’s story, Samuel Logan sheds light on important issues for America’s growing Latino population, touching on the effects of immigration, deportation, and daily realities of at-risk and underserved youths in the immigrant community.

Q: Why does the FBI call the Mara Salvatrucha (or MS-13) the “most violent gang in America”? Why is it growing so quickly?

A: The MS-13 brought the machete to the streets of LA. This low-tech weapon is particularly gruesome; it closes the distance between gang members and their victims. These guys use knives to kill people - decapitations are like a calling card. No other gang in the US is this comfortable with violence.

The MS-13 has grown quickly because all members are ordered to recruit; expansion is a constant preoccupation. Another important factor is the reality that many young teens in America’s immigrant Latino communities are left alone a lot. They have little love and support at home because parents are too busy working multiple jobs to scrape by, and in the underserved communities where many immigrants live, there are few options for after school activities. Enter an MS-13 recruiter who offers friends, something to do, and, most importantly, dignity. Soccer games followed by a BBQ are the most popular MS-13 recruiting events across the country.[snip...long, good read)

“Convicted of two murders (he says he killed many more), he will probably spend the rest of his life behind bars. “

How about greasing him and saving the cab fare.
