President Donald Trump is ready to crack down on the infamous, money-making MS-13 gang, after a violent quadruple homicide in Long Island, NY, last week left four teenagers dead and badly beaten. Trump is promising to remove the gang from US streets \u201cfast.\u201d<\/p>\n

MS-13, a group that was started by Central American immigrants in Los Angeles in the 1980s, is known for its ruthless and violent tactics. Most of the founding members were from El Salvador and fled to the US during the country\u2019s civil war that lasted 12 years, from 1980 to 1992. Since then the gang\u2019s membership has ballooned to at least 10,000 in the United States and more than 30,000 worldwide, according to the FBI and Treasury Department.<\/p>\n

\u201c[MS-13] is one of the most dangerous and rapidly expanding criminal gangs in the world today,\u201d Philip Holloway, a legal analyst and former police officer, told FOX Business. \u201cMS-13\u2019s mottos is \u2018Mata, roba, viola, controla\u2019 (\u2018Kill, steal, rape, control\u2019).\u201d<\/p>\n

The weak illegal immigration policies of the Obama Admin. allowed bad MS 13 gangs to form in cities across U.S. We are removing them fast!<\/p>\n
