“Of the 1,378 total arrests, 1,095 were confirmed to be gang members or affiliates of a gang… including mostly Bloods, followed by Sureños, MS-13 and the Crips,” reports CNN, citing ICE.
Hopefully, there will be more arrests soon. These people are truly awful. For examples:
Members of Mara Salvatrucha, also known as MS-13, have been charged with murders including a 15-year-old girl in Houston, Texas, and also of two friends, aged 15 and 16, in New York’s Long Island in September, whose bodies were found raped, beaten with baseball bats and hacked with machetes,” reports The Independent.
I seriously doubt if the gang affiliation was 'confirmed' that's a little more complicated of a process than ICE is even capable unless they had local law enforcement working with them & I can't even imagine what circumstances would lead ICE to be investigating or arresting Crips or Bloods, those are both exclusively black gangs.
They had better have had cause to arrest them because this will be scrutinized and ICE has always had a reputation for engaging in 'extra judicial' activities.
I'm just glad the arrested SOB gang members a're off the street!
ICE is out of control, they have never had a reputation for being very smart or using good judgement, that idiot Kelly gave them a license to be even more thuggish than they usually are
Although I agree with much of your post, please see my links in the above posts. ICE has been authorized to raid gangs with both American citizens and illegal aliens since 2005 in a national effort with combined federal agencies.
Although this raid is certainly worthy of headline news, similar raids have been conducted in the past.

Your entire post is an opinion. You have said nothing.

Yes, it's my opinion that it's not easy to verify gang affiliation, I worked in LE and I have a friend who is an administrator for the California Dept. of Corrections and she has confirmed that the same problem exists with validating prison inmates for gang membership, it's quite difficult unless the inmate admits affiliation. But rather than claim "you have said nothing" why don't you prove how very very easy it is to prove gang affiliation since that seems to be the position that you are supporting.
I admire when someone who may not care for who is our President, but can say if they like something that they have done
I agree. Trump should get credit when credit is due, but these raids have been going on for over 10 years.
It is always good news when bad people are arrested, as long as they get due process. Heck, I wouldn't mind if they deported the gang members who are American citizens along with illegal immigrants, if that were possible.
However, I get very annoyed when people make untrue statements, i.e., that these raids never took place under Obama.

Yeah, that 15-year old girl was held against her will along with another 14-year old girl for weeks, while they practiced satanic rituals and raped them over and over again. The 15-year old prayed to God or said something about God while they were doing some ritual and they took her out of the apartment and killed her. The other girl escaped.
And don't forget all the other murders they have committed in Houston, including mutulating a 14-year old boy with a machete and leaving him in a ditch. Those animals need to be put down.

Because they were involved in human trafficking. Geez people, it's almost like you guys want these animals on the streets. Can't have Trump involved with cleaning up the streets.
