Before we go assuming malintent with all these people suspected of gang activity from another nation. Even if proven true, take a look at the TED talk from a former MS13 gang member. He noted that he joined as he respected the leader’s position socially and wanted to do better for his single mother, who was already stressed. In NY, for example, an immigrant single is given shelter for 30 days, a family or couple 60 days. The shelters are all on the same network, and once in one, they all have your record, and once out, the same limit applies. So, the process for legal paperwork to be complete could take up to a year, if not years. The local welfare programs meant to help given bad rep and looked down on. Shop owners paying cash for stolen items from immigrants left out to dry trying to do it right during the asylum process. You put people in a pressure cooker and then act surprised when they link up and form gangs where they have tenuous solidarity with each other.
