Bukele is the man. No politician ever in the history of the modern world has ever been as effective at turning a country around. He will be remembered and admired long after he’s gone
I’m from El Salvador and I can say there has been a huge change in my home country. I never wanted to go back because of how bad crime was but in 2017 I had to travel for a family emergency. Then after Bukele took office I been there 5 times. Even took my white American wife and kids they loved it.

I work with a lot if Salvadorians in California. They all love Bukele. My question are, what do you do with those guys in the long run? What happened if some bleeding heart leftist politician decide one day to release them?
As Bukele himself said it. Why weren't You crying over the violation of human rights when the gangs killed innocent people? Why are you crying for human rights of people who were violating the human rights of hundreds and thousands of people
Are you seriously saying that? Are you putting at the same level criminal gangs and governments? Come on, I am sure you studied basic fundamentals of society and politics at school. You already know the answer and the difference.
Bukele might not be the hero everybody wants, but he is the hero his country needs. He acts in a way that shows how much he loves his country and it's people, not a way that shows how much he loves money, unlike many other politicians who wouldn't go through the inconvinience of making controversial decisions.
They aren't criminals they just live in a climate where the native crop is not legal to produce. They don't even have jobs available to them that's why they had to sell drugs and guns and traffic women and stuff.

@woth-th9gi Crook, Indio de Hollywood, Krueger, Greña. All MS13 leaders that were requested for extradition. All were somehow freed and found in Mexico.
I experienced the insecurity first hand as Salvadorean, we used to leave home not knowing if we were coming back, my neighbour and her teenage daughter were kidnapped, killed and found on black garbage bags on the side of the road, none one had the courage To ask what happed because if you did the MS13 could come and killed you too because guess who killed them, my other neighbour was shot and killed at this business because he couldn’t pay the money the Gang was asking. We had to pay the so called rent to the Gang to be protected from them … how non sense is that. They had a rule if you see or hear anything be quiet. They controlled who could come into the neighborhood. It was insane at that time to think things were going to change. We all had the option to be better and get a decent job but they choose not to. We don’t need to explain to anyone why we approve Bukele’s policy… I never in a million years thought that the situation in my country could get better but thank God it did and I am extremely happy and thankful.

@@michaelyang3910 no justice system can be perfect. you have to weigh the options: some innocent people locked up for a couple months vs innocent people being murdered.....if you choose the second option as being the better one, I'm sincerely questioning your morality.
I think a lot of people in the comments are missing the point. No one cares about the human rights of the criminals who murdered innocents. The human rights issue is that the military has power to imprison people without evidence or a trial, against the verdict of a judge, or based on anonymous tip-offs which could easily be someone trying to settle a personal issue. The concern is for the thousands of cases of innocent people imprisoned in these conditions, with some estimates being 1 in 6 people in the prisons are arbitrarily detained.
some people just have a hard-on for authoritarianism. i’m glad that the country is safer, but there are implications of a police state that should be addressed.
@@rni4069 There is no perfect society, they speak about a trade off and even the men that was wrongly arrested defends what Bukele is doing, they are the ones that lived before and after the changes. An outsider's opinion should hold no value on this. Even with some flaws that can be corrected with time, he is doing a way better job than the majority or literally all the other countries in the world.
You are missing the point. There will be collateral damage, but the way they were imprisoned was absolutely necessary to restore peace. Now, as for your concern about the innocent victims, why not ask them? The ones in this video and the ones I have read about were all understanding when they saw the improvement in their country after they have been released after being wrongfully arrested. Yes, life is not fair, but life in El Salvador is now much better. Ask any Salvadoran.
No one is missing the point. We simply don't care to use the same standards you use in your damn country. Go live your dream of democracy and let El Salvador live theirs.
I think its a good reason to in-prison considering country situation and they wear gang tattoo guilty or not. Its not normal situation in a country, it was the biggest disaster in a country and Bukele did what made it to work. For this country need to stabilise first, before allowing more human right acts.
Just remember that even by conservative estimates, around 10% of the inmates are falsely imprisoned. That means for example, in the picture at 0:13, out of the 41 people on the screen, around 3 or 4 of them are completely innocent and have had no relationship with the gangs *whatsoever* . During the crackdown on these criminal gangs, the police literally just imprisoned *anyone* who even just looked vaguely affiliated with gangs. If you were a person between the age of 15 and 40, and you had visible tattoos, *you were going to jail*, period, full stop. If you lived in the same apartment as a gang member, you were going to jail. If your neighbors said that they saw people who "looked like gang members" enter your home, you were going to jail. What is the exact number of innocent people jailed indefinitely with no trial date scheduled that you are willing to accept?
My aunt married an El Salvadoran man, and just came back from visiting El Salvador a couple of weeks ago. She said how much different the country was in the last 10 years when she last visited, from a country tensed with violence to a community where everyone is vibrant, happy and prospering. Where everyone can walk the streets and be safe. She said it is safer than where she lives in Orange County, CA.
Love that most if not all these comments are giving their praises and love to El Salvador 🇸🇻!! What Bukele has done is beautiful! And for those that cry over human rights go ahead and open your home to them
Do you think if you abuse people they will act better or worse. ? Do you think criminals will be more likely or less likely to have shoot outs with police if they know this is their fate?
@@BennyBlancoNL we don’t have to care what those would do anymore. Beside, we know what They’ve already did. Old Sufi proverb: those who do good to bad people, do bad to good people.
The issue isn't "they're treating criminals like criminals". The issue is they have suspended everyone's constitutional rights. Many innocent people are ending up in prison or worse. You can sit there and support that kind of thing from the comfort of your desk chair, but you'd be singing a different tune if the police rounded up someone you care about and you never saw them again.
@@brisasdelmar4400 Actually you should go live there since you obviously support these policies. I'm sure it will be just perfect for someone like you.
Hello to all of El Salvador 🇸🇻 from Poland 🇵🇱. Am so impressed by the turnaround your country has done. Glad you can now live in peace and safety. Bless you all ❤
The president of El Salvador should be given a medal from the United States limited for members of the armed forces for acts of extraordinary courage and valour? How do you figure that?
Or go to jail in the United States for sending to America and telling them they will be killed if they come back, especially considering with ameircas last leadiship had open border policies they all came in
To think these are the kind of extreme to the max 3rd world criminals now walking the streets of America mainly sanctuary cities for example NYC/DEN/LA ect. with intent to get rid of them for good Anti-America 3rd world countries such as Venezuela/El-Salvador ect. strategically purposely send to border so they would become America's problem to deal with not theirs anymore (🇺🇸👀🤦)
Well, it's justice if you believe that el Salvador has a 100% accurate and perfect justice system. And it is a violation of human rights, but that doesn't mean it isn't necessarily justice. Human rights is just a broad agreed upon standard of treatment. If you want to below that standard, justified or not, you just have to admit you are fine with violating human rights under certain circumstances and occasionally accidentally torturing innocents. Which is fine, bu5 don't be a pansy and pretend otherwise.
@@kc3reo I think you over-interpreted MY over simplified definition of “justice” lol. Regardless my point was the president of el salvador is sacrificing his dignity and of course violating some human rights to do what he thinks is best for his country. And overall they seem happy. Are innocent ppl being jailed. Yes. If i was falsely jailed would I cry injustice. Hell yes lol. But he is essentially picking the better of the two evils. Is jailing (arbitrary numbers) 100 innocent to prevent 1000 deaths necessary. He argues yes. Whether or not thats right is completely debatable and even I have some apprehension if we did the same in America to reduce rampant crime and gang violence. But he is the voice of the people (majority) and they seem satisfied (in el salvador not america)

@@Wildcat221I think by every objective metric, it is at the very least safer. You can make an argument that grouping up vast swathes of people that look a certain way (ie. tattoos etc.) and having 100+ defendants under the same criminal complaint all represented by the same lawyer is a violation of their human rights. But I don’t think you can say it isn’t at least safer.
Nope! That's not how human rights work. You never lose your human rights because you get them as long as you are human. Humans can be bad and still human.
I dated a woman from El Salvador a long time ago who has fled the country because of what happened there. She had horrifying stories of childhood terror of gun battles and having to stack mattresses and wood up against the doors and windows to hopefully stop stray bullets and she always heard people dying or getting shot. I am so happy for her home country now. Perhaps she can go back and visit her remaining family in peace.
I know supposed to feel bad…but idk. My mother in law’s 13 year old younger brother was graped, t0rtured, and unalived in front of their 7 year old younger sister for standing up to g@ng violence. What do you expect to happen when you hold an entire nation hostage

@@theone7491 There are no courts in El Salvador actually convicting these people. It's all for show. Even by conservative estimates, around 10% of the inmates in these prisons are falsely imprisoned. Many of these people got taken during raids because they simply looked like they might be affiliated with gangs. There are people for whom the ONLY evidence of them EVER being a gang member is that they have tattoos. That is it. Nobody testified against them, nobody reported them to the police, none of the other gang members knew them, they had actual alibis and jobs and lived completely normal legal lives, but because they looked gang affiliated, that was enough for a conviction.
My family almost die in the 80's when the civil war, was in El salvador. I leave in the time when we woke up with shooting and seeing dead bodies everyday. I will always thank my Grandma from bridging us to the USA, and gave us a better life.
There's alot of unseen logistics to this kind of thing , haiti doesn't have the ability to organize or fund anything. From what I've read they don't even have a government How could they build a prison or police force when they can't even build houses?
The difference is these gangs controlled the whole country, in America they control a few neighborhoods… besides our prisons are too crowded with people who had a small amount of pot on them

@@Mandai-f2d innocent till proven guilty, maybe the reverse works in el Salvador but hell never in any proper developed western country.

I’ve been traveling to El Salvador since 2013. When this facility was completed and filled in the last 5 years, the entire country changed dramatically. I now bring my family to travel with me. It is safe. The fear criminals have of this facility is no joke and they will not risk their freedom for a gang.
Seems to me like the criminals feel this is fair, the citizens feel it was necessary, and even the wrongly accused see the benefit from it. If the locals don't have an issue with it, then there is no issue.
There is SO much you have to know about this situation to comment on it. The people of El Salvador have been suffering since the civil war in the 1970's! Then, as people fled a HORRIFYING war they sought refuge in other counties and had to experience poverty and did what they could to survive. Young boys and men were introduced to gang culture and that eventually found its way back to El Salvador. With corrupt governments taking over as people tried to rebuild what such a senseless war took from them, violence was encouraged. Today the people of El Salvador are finally experiencing PEACE for the 1st time in about 50 YEARS, if you have something to say about human rights, I suggest that you look into the whole situation instead of just blindly yelling "HUMAN RIGHTS" at the top of your lungs. There may be a small percent of people in these prisons that did not personally commit a violent crime, but marking your body with those symbols means that you encourage and stand for what today is considered domestic terrorism in El Salvador. I have family that could not even go to college without permission from the "Homeboys" first otherwise, they would have gotten killed on their commute. These men did not care about the rights or quality of life of ANYONE around them. They would kill their own friends and family for stepping out of line or if the big guy told them to. Some people did slip through the cracks, and that is HORRIBLE. But, now that senseless violence is discouraged Salvadoran children HAVE A FUTURE. They do not belong to these criminals anymore. There is more tourism than ever, there are more jobs than ever and people don't have to be scared to go to work/school. Please consider that before getting on your soapbox. Thank you for reading
The problem is the innocent people that are wrongly getting imprisoned, I would not exchange my freedom as an innocent for a safer country. Would you have liked to be accused of crimes you never committed?
@@anon003 so you want criminals to massacre innocent people and then call it justice and feel good about yourself, got it sometimes you have to make tough decisions
I love this so much! I had a client from El Salvador tell me for the first time in 40 yrs she was able to travel to her home country and safely travel around as a tourist!
At 3:20 Culver asks the inmate "you have to do those things or else you wouldn't..." expecting a response along the lines of "survive" or "be able feed your family" but the inmate just says "you wouldn't be a gangbanger". How do you think like that.
Yea these guys are so brutal that I can’t imagine and certainly don’t want to! Sad though they probably have never experienced what it feels like to be loved.
@@tkn140 ...these are literally the same groups fighting against the discrimination against Christians in China. People like Amnesty International have a rather good record, all things considered. It is kind of sickening when they defend monsters, but they defend _everyone._ They basically trust governments about as far as they can throw them, and I for one think governments need someone looking over their shoulder asking, "are you _sure_ this is the right thing to do?" All El Salvador has to do is say, "Sure am!" and keep on going ahead.
@@vladeragAmnesty International supports homosexuals. The organization should therefore be dismantled and its leadership should be criminally prosecuted.
The last line by the reporter -prison represents freedom for many El Salvadorians - was very dichotomous. May all the residents of the country and those with El Salvadoran heritage enjoy a future of peace and safety. Good reporting.
Constructing a prison-like "CECOT" is asinine. Having a huge prison population rate is a horrible thing to have in a country. Something should be done to cut down on the prison population while also freeing them to live their lives. Poor conditions and human rights are violated in those mega prisons, which is terrible. Think if it was you who was abducted by corrupt Salvadoran officers and forced to be sent to that facility. Just imagine. Imagine being caught and forced to live in SC for 15 days. Don't think about the likelihood, but imagine IF. Wouldn't you dislike it? And if you dislike it, wouldn't you protest against his punitive policies? May the current president of El Salvador go to hell when he dies.

@@michaelyang3910 are you the domes kont?
I think a lot of people in the comments are missing the point. No one cares about the human rights of the criminals who murdered innocents. The human rights issue is that the military has power to imprison people without evidence or a trial, against the verdict of a judge, or based on anonymous tip-offs which could easily be someone trying to settle a personal issue. The concern is for the thousands of cases of innocent people imprisoned in these conditions, with some estimates being 1 in 6 people in the prisons are arbitrarily detained.
some people just have a hard-on for authoritarianism. i’m glad that the country is safer, but there are implications of a police state that should be addressed.
@@rni4069 There is no perfect society, they speak about a trade off and even the men that was wrongly arrested defends what Bukele is doing, they are the ones that lived before and after the changes. An outsider's opinion should hold no value on this. Even with some flaws that can be corrected with time, he is doing a way better job than the majority or literally all the other countries in the world.
You are missing the point. There will be collateral damage, but the way they were imprisoned was absolutely necessary to restore peace. Now, as for your concern about the innocent victims, why not ask them? The ones in this video and the ones I have read about were all understanding when they saw the improvement in their country after they have been released after being wrongfully arrested. Yes, life is not fair, but life in El Salvador is now much better. Ask any Salvadoran.
No one is missing the point. We simply don't care to use the same standards you use in your damn country. Go live your dream of democracy and let El Salvador live theirs.
I think its a good reason to in-prison considering country situation and they wear gang tattoo guilty or not. Its not normal situation in a country, it was the biggest disaster in a country and Bukele did what made it to work. For this country need to stabilise first, before allowing more human right acts.
This goes to show that if a leader really wants to do good for his country then he really can achieve it. Absolutely amazing leader of El Salvador.
Agreed thats why I support President Trump
Just remember that even by conservative estimates, around 10% of the inmates are falsely imprisoned. That means for example, in the picture at 0:13, out of the 41 people on the screen, around 3 or 4 of them are completely innocent and have had no relationship with the gangs *whatsoever* . During the crackdown on these criminal gangs, the police literally just imprisoned *anyone* who even just looked vaguely affiliated with gangs. If you were a person between the age of 15 and 40, and you had visible tattoos, *you were going to jail*, period, full stop. If you lived in the same apartment as a gang member, you were going to jail. If your neighbors said that they saw people who "looked like gang members" enter your home, you were going to jail. What is the exact number of innocent people jailed indefinitely with no trial date scheduled that you are willing to accept?
Only gang members had tattoos it’s now it’s a lot safer children can play in the streets woman can feel safe again.

The prison is a “Violation of human rights” as some ppl say? Isnt killing a person a violation of human rights. This is called justice
I wouldn't want to be falsely accused in there but they self identify with their tattoos
Well, it's justice if you believe that el Salvador has a 100% accurate and perfect justice system. And it is a violation of human rights, but that doesn't mean it isn't necessarily justice. Human rights is just a broad agreed upon standard of treatment. If you want to below that standard, justified or not, you just have to admit you are fine with violating human rights under certain circumstances and occasionally accidentally torturing innocents. Which is fine, bu5 don't be a pansy and pretend otherwise.
@@kc3reo I think you over-interpreted MY over simplified definition of “justice” lol. Regardless my point was the president of el salvador is sacrificing his dignity and of course violating some human rights to do what he thinks is best for his country. And overall they seem happy. Are innocent ppl being jailed. Yes. If i was falsely jailed would I cry injustice. Hell yes lol. But he is essentially picking the better of the two evils. Is jailing (arbitrary numbers) 100 innocent to prevent 1000 deaths necessary. He argues yes. Whether or not thats right is completely debatable and even I have some apprehension if we did the same in America to reduce rampant crime and gang violence. But he is the voice of the people (majority) and they seem satisfied (in el salvador not america)

I’ve been traveling to El Salvador since 2013. When this facility was completed and filled in the last 5 years, the entire country changed dramatically. I now bring my family to travel with me. It is safe. The fear criminals have of this facility is no joke and they will not risk their freedom for a gang.
Seems to me like the criminals feel this is fair, the citizens feel it was necessary, and even the wrongly accused see the benefit from it. If the locals don't have an issue with it, then there is no issue.
the comment I was looking for
There is SO much you have to know about this situation to comment on it. The people of El Salvador have been suffering since the civil war in the 1970's! Then, as people fled a HORRIFYING war they sought refuge in other counties and had to experience poverty and did what they could to survive. Young boys and men were introduced to gang culture and that eventually found its way back to El Salvador.
With corrupt governments taking over as people tried to rebuild what such a senseless war took from them, violence was encouraged. Today the people of El Salvador are finally experiencing PEACE for the 1st time in about 50 YEARS, if you have something to say about human rights, I suggest that you look into the whole situation instead of just blindly yelling "HUMAN RIGHTS" at the top of your lungs.
There may be a small percent of people in these prisons that did not personally commit a violent crime, but marking your body with those symbols means that you encourage and stand for what today is considered domestic terrorism in El Salvador.
I have family that could not even go to college without permission from the "Homeboys" first otherwise, they would have gotten killed on their commute. These men did not care about the rights or quality of life of ANYONE around them. They would kill their own friends and family for stepping out of line or if the big guy told them to.
Some people did slip through the cracks, and that is HORRIBLE. But, now that senseless violence is discouraged Salvadoran children HAVE A FUTURE. They do not belong to these criminals anymore. There is more tourism than ever, there are more jobs than ever and people don't have to be scared to go to work/school.
Please consider that before getting on your soapbox.

So if I visit El Salvador I will make sure I don't get a tattoo before I go
A noble man who loves his country. He change El Salvador to be better with a brave heart.
The last line by the reporter -prison represents freedom for many El Salvadorians - was very dichotomous. May all the residents of the country and those with El Salvadoran heritage enjoy a future of peace and safety. Good reporting.
Constructing a prison-like "CECOT" is asinine. Having a huge prison population rate is a horrible thing to have in a country. Something should be done to cut down on the prison population while also freeing them to live their lives. Poor conditions and human rights are violated in those mega prisons, which is terrible. Think if it was you who was abducted by corrupt Salvadoran officers and forced to be sent to that facility. Just imagine. Imagine being caught and forced to live in SC for 15 days. Don't think about the likelihood, but imagine IF. Wouldn't you dislike it? And if you dislike it, wouldn't you protest against his punitive policies? May the current president of El Salvador go to hell when he dies.
Idk man not having gangs anymore seems great. Salvadorians seem really happy
wow you sure love having bots liking your comments
What about having a huge population as gangster? Please tell us about that.
No one cares!!! 90% approval rate. You don't live in el Salvador, clearly not from there. The blood of the thousands and thousands of innocent workers, children, men & women still cry out. Thank goodness for justice!!! El Salvador is free at last.
Bro is definitely part of a gang
if anyone in there is innocent that's a tragedy
Véritablement !!
Thats why all countries have justice system coz no police is perfect
Don't worry..... They already released over 7000 innocent people already. 🙄
Not a single person in this video looked innocent bro - literally every single one of them had gang tattoos
@@olivercrespo2329 Out of the 80k that have been arrested, over 7k of them were innocent and released. With a ridiculous margin of error like this, there's absolutely more innocent folks in there.
Next, out of 80k people arrested, this video clip only showed a couple hundred inmates. Were you clearly able to see ALL of their "gang tattoos"?
Last, "not a single person looked innocent". It's that mentality that ended up arresting over 7k innocent people to begin with. Looks are deceiving.
worst of the worst? what else do u expect for criminals? a fortress?
A safari lodge 🤣
Kudos to CNN for showing this perspective.
How could anyone consider these monsters to be "human"?
To see this men with his children his cute family in a new reformed country just makes me so happy
I hope the best for them❤ what a wonderful change
Salute to Mr. Presidente Bukele, the world needs a man like him.
