Yesterday, President Donald Trump was speaking as part of a round table discussion on California’s sanctuary state laws. He was asked a question about the most violent gang in the world, MS13, which originally stemmed in Los Angeles. 

Fresno County Sheriff Margaret Mims brought up the gang & her departments ability to combat them. She spoke of how she could know of MS13 members, but wouldn’t be allowed to act upon her knowledge. 

The President responded by saying “These aren’t people. They are animals.” & now the leftist media is blowing a casket, & once again twisting the president’s words to fit their agenda. The liberal media used that one quote without showing the context of the original question asked by Mims. Accusing him of calling all illegal immigrants animals. Nancy Pelosi, former speaker of the house said, “Does he not believe in the spark of divinity, the dignity & worth of every person?” CNBC’s John Harwood said “however repugnant their actions, MS-13 gang members are human beings.” The American Heritage dictionary third definition of animal is “A person who behaves in a bestial or brutish manner.” 

After Sarah Sanders defended the comment by listing only a few of the most heinous crimes committed by this violent gang, I asked my liberal facebook friends who lost their minds over this “racist” comment, if “animal” was still an inappropriate term to use to describe the members of this gang. 

Now, as someone who loves politics & wants to be able to help my country any way that I can, I like to make sure i’ve done an acceptable & credible amount of research before I formulate an argument, unlike the leftist media who purposely cuts out context of the presidents statement to make him look bad. So lets take a look at MS-13 & see if the presidents statement was truly inappropriate. 

The motto of MS13 is “kill, rape, control”. I guess we aren’t off to a very good start... 

There are an average of 10,000 members across the United States & approximately 50,000 worldwide. This gang is known for hacking people to death, killing people in broad daylight in view of witnesses, & beating people to death with bats. in 2013 two gang members beat & hacked a 16 year old houston teen to death using bats & machetes. They almost decapitated him. They did this because he was an informant to El Salvadoran law enforcement. 

in 2017 10 MS13 members stabbed a man over 100 times in Marlyand. They decapitated him & cut out his heart. In the same year, members shot an unidentified 15 year old girl in the head  & chest, & left her body in the middle of a busy street in Houston’s china town. 

This brutal violence has been going on since 2003. Brenda Paz was murdered after cooperating with law enforcement & then lured to a fishing trip with her boyfriend, who along with his fellow gang stabbed her to death in front of witnesses. 

In 2017 four gang members were arrested for a spree of 10 murders in Las Vegas. 

In 2014 MS13 enforces were deployed by a cartel to kidnap & torture teenagers in St. Paul. A 15 year old girl was tortured, her tattoo sliced, & then was stabbed to death. 

This gangs brutality is long & horrifying. Murder, torture, rape, dismemberment, mutilation. They commit these acts to shock, terrorize, silence, & warn. MS13 wants us to be repelled & horrified.
