The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) concluded a six week long anti-gang operation. During the country-wide operation that ran from March 26 to May 6, the agency and local law enforcement arrested close to 1,378 suspects, of which 1,095 had gang affiliations.
According to ICE, “individuals are confirmed as gang members if they admit membership in a gang” or have previously been convicted of crimes associated with street gangs. Also, many gang members give away their affiliation themselves by brandishing tattoos identifying a specific gang. Others are identified as a gang member by reliable sources.
Of the gang affiliated arrested, there was a pretty even share of the most notorious gangs, as shown in our infographic below. Members of the Crips, Bloods, Sureños and MS-13 were taken into custody. Most of the arrested were U.S. citizens (67.7 percent). The foreign nationals swept up (32.3 percent) came from 21 countries in South and Central America, Asia, Africa, Europe and the Caribbean.
The agents involved in the broad sweep also seized 238 guns and impounded close to 500,000 in cash. Narcotics were seized too: 500 pounds of Marijuana, 50 pounds of cocaine, 34 pounds of Meth and 7 pounds of Heroin. Operational hotspots were Houston, Atlanta, New York and the Newark area.
If they’re found guilty, execute them. Drop their bodies in the ocean with chum. There’s also plenty of room in the desert.
Yep. Next step. 1,378 PUBLIC hangings. Like Duterte in the Phillipines. Now there’s a man with a plan.
Nope – they will get 3 Hots and a Cot, plus wide screen TV, the new ‘sex dolls’, and control of the prison itself.
Google “prison camps in us”. That seems like a good place to house the gang members. House all the gangs together and let them fight it out there. Let them kill one another and thin out the number of criminals we have to feed.
Also use some other of the camps for illegal aliens.
While we are at it, use some of the camps for refugees till we can vet them. Though I would separate the Christian refugees from the Muslims.
Unfortunately, the government intends to use those camps to imprison patriotic American nationals.

I could find that many in one day, cruising the nursery and Home Depot stores in the LA suburbs.
Sounds like a total failure and another federal law enforcement tax payer funded public show . Hey look what we are doing for you ! Bull Shit : with an estimated 11 to 20 MILLON people inhabiting our nation illegally depending on what number some $6 figure paid parasite in Washington churns out to suit the flavor of the month . The best a team of well paid investagators and officers probably with overtime or comp time for this “SPECIAL” roughly one month operation could round up is 1,378 people and only about two thirds were illegals .
How about this : every morning at 4:30 AM you send a couple crew cab pickups to Home Depot’s in any town USA and tell them you have work for 5 people cash paid at the end of the day . You will round up that many illegals in under an hour and probably through connecting the dots more gang members too .
All Americans know what it’s really all about , as with any federal agency you show enough to justify your budget with the claim ” we could do so much better with more revenue sources” but never do enough to do a complete job . The gang , drug , poverty , illegal immagration , education failures are all connected to the revolving doors between WALL STREET to K-STREET to CAPITOL STREET to THE PENTAGON ! As average working Americans are financially ruined and left destitute forced to support a totally failed system gorged to the gills with paid parasites . Just think if 80 MILLON tax paying working Americans could say NO ! If there are tha many left ? And withold or stop all taxes paid to the local state and federal governments ! I bet armed agents would find more than 1,378 in a month and have them in orange jump suits or having agents wipe out any on the book savings and real property they have title to but must rent from the government through property taxes . Oh what a free republic has become while we were sleeping !
