    We Salvadorans have been a strong people, a proud people, in the sense that we do not need anyone to get ahead, a hard-working people, with many desires to grow and be a great country, but the civil war came for twelve years, then the gangs, I thank God that all this has already happened, now our Lord Jesus has made us a different people, that the only thing we want is to live in peace, as a people and open our arms to the world of good, they will be well received, THANK YOU TO GOD FIRST AND TO OUR PRESIDENT BUKELE, TO OUR TRUE HEROES, SOLDIERS, POLICE, THANK YOU GOD BLESS AND PROTECT YOU, THANK YOU BRIAN AND JESSICA.

    I lived in Toronto Canadá. And been out for 43 years, I still remember that massacre on the Cathedral stairs entrance. I lost a friend in his last year to become a Doctor. It was very sad day . And looking up now. What an inspirational time. Blessings from abroad.☀️🌊🌋🏄🍻🇨🇦🇸🇻

    A Salvadorean once told me that 10 of his friends were murdered for being in the wrong neighborhoods, and they were not gang members. Another told me that the gangs threatened to rape his sister the moment she stopped paying extortion money. Salvadoreans all over the country weren't allowed to visit family members in other neighborhoods controlled by rival gangs.

    Who would have thought several years ago, that all the freedoms you talk about are now being experienced in a place nobody ever imagined would be successful at turning the page in their history of corruption and violence. on the other hand, all those freedoms have been lost now in places we considered the pillars of democracy. being wrong is not shameful, accepting it is a virtue we should be proud of.

    What a great video! After recently coming here, I am finding all that this video shows to be so accurate. The people are warm. After a year of travel, I feel safer than anywhere else I have been. This includes Portugal. I met Ronnie and he is heart centered and great and Ryan, who I have not met, texted me with some advice. It is a big change to come to a new country and culture to live. You have to learn that there are places where people look you in the eye and smile just because. That is such a good thing.
