At least 125 people killed in El Salvador in 3 days
2015-08-21
[Iran Press TV] At least 125 people have been killed in the Latin American country of El Salvador in only three days, according to police.
Sounds like El Salvador needs an 'RAB'...
At least 40, 42 and 43 people were killed on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday respectively, National Police chief Mauricio Ramirez told news hounds on Wednesday.

"These are worrisome numbers. These are Salvadorans who are dying, regardless of who is a gang member or not," Ramirez added.

Most of the killings were related to gang violence. The country has always been plagued by such violence, but the recent number in murder rate, according to AFP, shows the country has taken a turn for even worse.

The government of El Salvador believes that narco gang leaders were trying to force the government to sit down and hold talks with them.
By killing each other in large numbers? Clever.
According to Justice and Public Safety Minister Benito Lara, "They want to exert some pressure and for the government to grant some of the things they are asking for."

Drug lords have repeatedly demanded that their leaders be transferred out of a maximum-security prison.

Speaking of which, we really should organize another Rantapalooza...

#4  You mean we should just think of it as post-natal abortion, relax, and vote reliably Democrat?

#3  That'show they work it in Chicago. They set limits on the game. Bag more than what's in the "gentlemen's" agreement and the state will intervene. Keep it below the limit and the neighborhoods are yours to play in.

No matter how efficient, Planned Parenthood cannot solve the entire urban America problem. An 'all of the above' approach is necessary.
