Even amid a nationwide surge in MS-13 slayings, the 2017 killing stood out. Female victims are nothing new for MS-13, which is infamous in Central America for making young women choose between rape and execution. But in a gang as chauvinistic as it is fearsome, female killers are almost unheard of... Unlike their counterparts in Central America, some MS-13 cliques in the United States now allow female members, said Michael Prado, assistant special agent in charge of the Washington office of Homeland Security Investigations, a branch of Immigration and Customs Enforcement. "In that regard they are somewhat progressive," he said. "The [cliques] here are a little bit more, for lack of a better term, Americanized." In response, ICE has begun instructing its agents to scrutinize girls and young women as closely as males for MS-13 involvement, Prado said.

THOUSANDS OF GIRLS ARE JOINING CUB SCOUTS
April 24, 2018
Tatum and Ian W., 10-year-old twins who are both participating in Webelos, are looking to be among the first brother/sister duos to eventually earn the rank of Eagle Scout. Its all possible thanks to Tatums recent participation in Pack 154, which is part of Daniel Webster Council in Durham, New Hampshire.
The pack began welcoming girls to Cub Scouts in January of this year as one of our early adopter units. Full Cub Scout registration options for girls will be available to all councils starting June 11, 2018, while a program for older youth has a scheduled February 2019 launch.

In joining Cub Scouts, Tatum who was recently featured with her brother in an article by The Associated Press highlighting the growing availability of Cub Scouts for girls became one of thousands of girls who have already joined a pack.
The Associated Press article, which was syndicated broadly, shared further details on the early adopter packs.
With more than 3,000 girls already signed up and roughly two-thirds of BSA councils participating, the program has been a way to address the requests that had been pouring in from families.
BSA Director of Communications Effie Delimarkos shared with the Associated Press that the requests started back in October of 2017, immediately following the decision to open up the program.
We heard from our families, OK, youve made the decision, can you please give us a way to do this right now because weve got families and daughters that are just really excited about it, Delimarkos told the AP.
Tatums family was just one example. Like many girls, Tatum had been participating alongside her brother at some of his Cub Scout activities for years, but she hadnt been able to earn official recognition.
I thought it would be pretty cool because I thought it would be a good opportunity to do with my brother, she said. Theres a lot of cool activities.
From Ians perspective, the addition of his sister has only improved his Scouting experience. I was a little skeptical because it was me and my dads thing, he said. But when Tatum got in it was even more fun.
That sentiment is echoed by Tuck Pescosolido, a den leader in Durham, New Hampshire. He told the AP that the boys have welcomed the girls with enthusiasm. He said that some of the newest female Cub Scouts in his community are friends of the boys in the pack, and the boys had recommended Scouting to them.

More of the “Gorgeous Mosaic.”
Equal opportunity gangs and murderers and terrorists.
Just the type that liberals love.
Thank you Obama.
Has everyone in the press and government forgotten that MS-13 was and is of American origin?
From Wiki:
"MS-13 (Mara Salvatrucha; also known as simply MS or Mara) is an international
criminal gang that originated in Los Angeles, California, US in the 1980s.
The gang isn’t becoming Americanized... it is American. MS-13 was born here among the Salvadorean population, and has spread back to Central America.
The GOP establishment’s immigration enthusiasts like John McCain and the Bushes keep telling us about how the “conservative family values” of Central American invaders will redeem the US. This must be what they have in mind.
Their future is grim then. They will end up either dead or in prison. Frankly I prefer dead so they don’t cost the taxpayers more money. It’s not like they can ever be reformed.
OOH! BIG girls with tattoos! It’s warm in the winter, there’s shade in the summer and MOVING PICTURES all year around!..the late Lee Rodgers.
Chauvinistic? Just plain “Evil” maybe a better term. Instead they give some PC flag term. Nonsense
Don't forget to thank that globalist POS George W Bush too.
