a well done pretty frustrating watch. doesn't downplay the brutality of MS, but shows the draconian approach of Trump's justice dept and local law enforcement.

since most of this new generation of ms13 aren't all tatted up, just about every kid of a certain age is a suspect. talk to the wrong person, wear the wrong hat, have anyone just accuse you of being a gang member, and they're suspended from school, detained, jailed, deported with very little evidence or due process.

the worst part, (and i wish the doc hammered this point even harder) is how the primary victims of ms are almost always other undocumented immigrants. the same people who are afraid to go to law enforcement either out of fear, or simply being treated like shit. Cheeto and his friends exploit the horrible things that happen to these people, only to use it against them. But its not the people actually getting killed who you hear screaming about MS13, it's Connie in payroll because she had to press 1 for english.
