I saw a report on MS13, the street gang that spawned from Central America, and it gave me pause to wonder who is the greatest source of danger to me personally – Al Qaeda or MS13?
Has any of us civilians here in the US actually seen a member of Al Qaeda? I doubt I ever have. How about a street gang member? Probably most of us. So this brings us back to the question of the decade, what are we doing in Iraq?
The number of gang related by-stander deaths rivals that of our loss on 9-11.
I would rather have safe streets here then create more global terrorism by staying in Iraq or going into Iran.

In order to stamp out MS-13, who are mostly illegal aliens… excuse me… undocumented immigrants (guffaw), the US would need to be much more serious about its southern border (a fence combined with vastly increasing visa quotas from Mexico). The next step would be to require local police everywhere to enforce immigration laws (by linking DHS grants), instead of allowing incorporated towns and cities to declare themselves sanctuaries for illegal immigrants. That would get police to look at illegals, and while they are looking at all the illegals they might find more of the illegals who are violent gangsters.

Wolf: If you think most MS-13 members are illegal immigrants, you have no idea what you’re talking about.
