When I was young skinhead gangs would soon have made their way down there and kicked them into orbit.

Just stay in your own country and get rid of the crooks, gangs, and politician ruining your country.. You're taking jobs and social services that belong to a country's own poor.

SMH! The comment section is a daunting place. The central American government needs to be held accountable for the mass exists. History repeats itself - just like the forefathers left for the Americas because of persecution, economics, and social injustices. These immigrants are somewhat doing the same thing. I think it's an easy fix, stop the gang violence people will stay, and companies will want to come set up shop because labor is so cheap.

Why don't all the nations like US and Canada try to help fix what is happening from the places these people are fleeing, especially if they are murder capitals? They can recruit these migrants to form coalitions to rebuild their nation. What if they are really are going to suffer there, without outside intervention, by being recruited, instead, into gangs or be killed or raped? If we send troops to the middle east for our vested interest, then don't we also have at least some vested interest to send troops in Honduras and El Salvador? We can prevent the entire population from migrating, prevent people from being exploited and hurt while traveling or living illegally and the taxpayers and citizens won't have to pay for court costs, education, healthcare and welfare. There are plenty of things our nation can do to uplift our own destitute and out of luck an alone citizens...with that money. With the money now saved, it can be diverted to cover the costs of our troops, counselors, educators in those nations. Then it is possible and foreseeable to reunite all the undocumented immigrants back to their now safer home countries. I understand why they flee and also understand why the US and Canada cannot absorb these large population of people, and they have the right to determine who is invited in, so....why can't there be more permanent solutions? I feel, certain pathetic political groups are playing these migrants, the law-abiding citizens and others in their game of chess. Lives are not pawns for chess. Is there a hidden path for drugs, money, prostitution that is being quietly supported? Are certain businesses lobbying in the millions and billions to get cheap labor? Is that why this problem is not finally being solved but kept alive for so many years? There are basic solutions that have not been tried in earnest. You cannot just bring everyone in and you cannot just turn your face to the problems these undocumented people face... I feel like much is not being discussed about this situation....Something else is going on that they are not covering...

Not an immigrant & an illegal immigrant may be! Compared to rest of the world Latin America is not bad economically speaking. Latin America has non-political Narco & Gang violence problem that’s a domestic & this violence does not fall under political violence for asylum purposes. He needs to improve his construction skills so he can stay in Canada.

Why don't gangs of non-Muslim in large groups go through the area drinking and reading porrn Lets see what the Muslim patrol does when they are confronted by lads in groups of 30 to 40

CBC is a tool of the predatory Globalist criminal gangs. Soros and Bloomberg are the main players..

Filing asylum based on gang violence as an alibi to get permanent residence for him and his family. This is typical even for mothers with children in tow crosing the US Mexico border. It's not like Canada and the US don't have their own problems with gang violence.. He shouldn't even be working in construction coz he doesn't have a Red Seal Trade Certification much less he doesn't even speak basic English.

Gucci gang lil pump Hi fraser

Do you guys have any idea that crime rate in sikh community is very high .drugs,gang wars ,gun violence ,violence is very common and believe me in next 10 years brampton will become crime capital of canada.

When we get all of the Salvadorians, Syrians, Somalians, Iraqis, Afghans, Packastans, East Indian gangs in Canada, we can then begin the process of trying to sort out the violent drug wars that will come with them. Oh wait, it has already started. Toronto Strong.

This is nothing... Go visit Surrey or Abbotsford in BC, Canada. Largest population of East Indians outside of India. I do have a few issues... if it's a multicultural country then come on Canada, letting in more of one race over another is unfair and unwanted. I don't want to see Chinese and East Indians making up the entire population of Canada in 50 years. I also want to say FUCK the relaxation of motorcycle helmet laws for Sikhs. They made a fool of Canada when they did this. Seems like they don't have a problem wearing a helmet when playing ice hockey. Not to mention they look ridiculous riding a Harley while wearing a turban. I am insulted as a Canadian how east Indians try to exploit or change Canada's laws. Oh and let's not talk about the gang violence brought on by the east Indians in BC. Too bad Canada can't deport the parents who turned a blind eye to their sons illegal activities in gangs. The parents are completely to blame. Innocent people are being shot and killed in quiet neighbourhoods around Vancouver. I wish I could say nice things about east Indians but it's quite hard to.

If Harper and his gang of thieves wern't such a bunch of cunts Canada wouldn't have ended up with this cowardly beta male traitor

Trudeaus even worse than his father, poor poor Canada, this guy is a real danger for the future of the Nation. last time i was in Halifax it looked more like Jamaica that Canada, knife crime and gang crime was going nuts. Why are you doing this to your Country? did you learn nothing from the UK and US immigration policy. Crap, guys wake up to this liberal fool.

Trudeau, is a nobody, with Soros-Clinton as mentors, we just got OUR first ISIS shooter, this has just began, more and more to come! All muslims are welcome in Canada, also are gang members, he got a muslim Minister of immigration, by the name of Hussain too, is he relative with the shooter???

After I found out there were gangs in America I planned to seek trouble free Canada for asylum. After watching this I decided to take up arms and make my country a safe place again.

He is a gang banger

Ohh no the gangs in Mexico will kill him.Nodoubt

$15k would be a nice chunk of change in your home country. Gang issue are NOT grounds for an asylum!

Not only are these women who choose this type of  face covering mocking civilized progressive societies they are also stabbing women from the middle eastern societies who fight every day against this form of tyranny. I will also take it to another level as in gang wear as signaling to other women that they are some how more moral and better than them. These women I truly have no hope for. They have a mindset which is arrogant towards other women on an immoral high ground. They are attention seekers.The only way to go is to have it banned so that women who are forced into it can now have the RITE once it is law to not feel guilty or have guilt subliminally  placed upon them for not wearing it.

The average ilegal pay around ten thousand dollars to smuggler's. If they are afraid of gang's in one city just move to another and invest that fortune. But America is the goose with the golden eggs, and wee who paid the pipper are footing the bill while he was able to save $15,000.

Not saying this to be a leftist or a conservative but just try to imagine your born in a country like Salvador every day seeing gangs killing people kids elderly ... you have a wife kids ... wouldn't you do anything literally anything to do just so your kid can have a better future and yes even considering going to another country where you have no family and know no body not even their language .... please comment I want to see what people would do

I do feel sorry for these people. BUT if someone wanna kill you, kill them first. Survival! IF everyone in San Salvador \nstarts killing Gang members the problem will be solved. Millions more people than just 65k gang members, right?\nThis is more about economic refugees. This is a sad fact that their Govt. can't/won't take care of their own shit.\nThis is NOT FAIR to other countries. When Isis people get caught they start crying like lil bitches, becuz, it's their turn.

Also the United States is responsible for a lot of things that go on in that country. It seems that our government can’t stop meddling where it doesn’t belong. Infecting their people with stds , only to study them . That gang responsible for all the violence...courtesy of the United States. A lot of Americans retire to Latin America, due to the high cost of living here. So it’s fair to say that there is a problem on both sides of the border.

The us and Canada have homeless and gangs....stand your ground I’ve been threatened too

Does this mean there are shithole countries that know one in their right mind would want to bother in unless you are the 1%, gang member or other criminal who has no family?

So illegal immigrant = immigrant?\n\nMy wife is originally from El Salvador (became citizen before I even met her) and I've vacationed there, the gangs are in the bigger cities (San Salvador, San Miguel), the rest of El Salvador is safer than most places in the U.S. The reason why Salvadorians and other Central Americans leave is due to pride, being in the U.S or Canada is an accomplishment, it's a lot of things, it's bragging rights, it's a way to send money back to the family but what it's not is for safety reasons. So them claiming it's because they're scared is complete nonsense.

The Mexican guy thought Canada was gonna welcome him with open arms!!!!!??????????\nCan't even speak English!!!!!???\nCanadians dont want Mexicans because they don't want your drugs& gangs!!!!

Naughty Naughty Gangs.

Now drug dealers gang members give black plp a bad image

IT'S GREEN NOT BLACK OR WHITE IF YOU look like you can not afford a lawyer. the blue wall gang will get you .

People judge based on skin color because of patterns of behavior. Blacks and Hispanics are more likely to be gang associated then a white or Asian. If you want to fix racism, then get rid of the negative behaviors in your race.

He must be racist for suggesting that people should follow the law! That's what a sjw would say at least.\nImmigration is a complicated issue. I believe if you want to work, come to the USA! Before that can happen though we need to reign in our social welfare. I am sure that will discourage a few people from coming but we can't subsidize an immigrant's work or anyone's work for that matter. \nAnother is that if your country is full of violent gangs, or a tyrannical leader, or a socialist nation than maybe you should stay and try to fix the place. \nIf you are not willing to defend freedom, why should we defend and die for your freedoms?

I've been hearing a lot about El Salvadore lately and this super high murder rate they got there. Of course anyone could be caught in a crossfire but are they really just picking random dudes up off the street to murder? I imagine the stats are MUCH lower when you control for things like gang involvement and other criminal behavior.

The issue is that the intending migrants and the general public are ignorant as to asylum law. The public think of asylum as some far reaching, grandiose humanitarian gesture- when the truth is that asylum laws provide an EXTREMELY LIMITED basis of relief. \n\nMerely coming from a dangerous country is NOT enough to win asylum, in the U.S. or Canada. A person must prove they are specifically persecuted, by the GOVERNMENT, because of some specific basis. A Central American claiming Central America is full of gangs and poverty, while true, is NOT a basis for asylum. This is why it's my personal belief that the thousands of Haitians making a run for the Canadian border have an almost zero chance of receiving asylum- ESPECIALLY after NOT living in Haiti for many years. \n\nIn spite of this, migrants still make these claims because it forces the country to go through a time consuming legal process, and is a way to buy time and prevent their deportation. Or perhaps allow them time to find a local job, continue their education, or have a child born in the country and then make a humanitarian argument to allow them to stay, even after losing their asylum case. \n\nThe truth is, unless a country holds asylum seekers in detention for the entirety of the process, it's a given that failed asylum seekers will NOT return to their country of origin, and will simply go underground.

I dont feel sorry for him at all he knew what he was doing. He knew he was breaking the law he knew his family would be breaking the law by crossing the border illegally. I don't feel sorry for him for his wife or for his children. If he would have come across the right way he wouldn't be fighting to make sure he didn't go back to Mexico. It is his own fault and I don't feel bad about sending him his wife or his kids back across the border with their bags packed. Everybody's all poor Mexico people poor people come over they need help. No. They need to stand up to their local government fight back against the gang members and take their country back. If they're not happy with their country they need to fight and make the change.

Many undocumented people that claim being threatened by the gangs are false. They leave their home because they just don't want to work for a little bit of money. They despite their own money currentcy and the prefer risk their lives to make the precious american dollars... It's all about the money.

Living in Latin America is not that bad, well there are parts where you should avoid at all cost but there are places where you can have a safe decent life, most of you just say what comes out of your small little brains without ever even leaving your city your whole life. Its just that this people have lived and been so dependent from your system and in stretching their hands( beg) all this time that they not know what to do now. \n\nHe said that he wasted 15 thousand dollars in lawyer, if it would have been me I could have perfectly moved to lets say Costa Rica or Peru and still have money to buy land. But they really are addicted to this kind of life. I agree that the people in El salvador have made violence to sky rocket because they have not done nothing about it, they left gangs and violence to proliferate and now its just too late for them. But there is still hope in other places in Latin America.

So escaping from a war or gang torn area is not good enough canada, good job eh!

gang gang canada skeet

The fundamentals of islam is to honor death over all life. Porno Paradise of 72 virgins for the male muslim is all it's all about.... Why they cut clitoris's out of their own females? So females can't ever 'enjoy' the pleasures of adult sex. \nIslamic males consider non FGM females as unclean - tho they'll still gang rape them.

Islam is shit riligion Muhammad is gang leader from madena and omar is gang leader in mecca when this gangs get together they start to kill,steel,rape,slave and all the bad thing the same. as the blood and the crips gange if you get in you cant go out and you can see the real Islam in ISIS this is the real Islam and GOD has nothing to do with it is Muhammad that is the Hitler of islam

cheap-skate bullies, back in the 1930's it was jewish razor gangs vs the Black Shirts, these are the new bullies/street thugs hiding their base instincts behind 'allah' - get a job, read a book! nasty but a bit sad, too

go patrol all your pedo rape gangs you sick evil bastards

These thugs want to Talibanise their neighbourhoods. They are GUTLESS COWARDS like all gangs (they work in numbers and target individuals) and being religious fascists doesn't make them any better than any other gang- arrests need to be made.

I have to work around these areas and see this every day. These asian muslim gangs are targeting British people and trying to make their life as uncomfortable as possible. THEY ARE USING OUR FREEDOMS TO ENFORCE THEIR RELIGION/CULTURE. \nSINCE DEC 2012 - BRITISH ARE NOW A MINORITY IN LONDON. THE REMAINDER ARE DEALING WITH THIS HARASSMENT DAILY!\n\nUKIP ALL the way ppl.............. before the rest of our country ends like this!\n

Continue:\n\nLess than 2 % muslim are regarded as peace loving people. (USA, Australia, Canada, China, Italy & Norway.\n\nMuslim between 2 to 5% in any country start recruiting & converting people from Jail & street gangs. i.e. Denmark, Germany, UK, Spain & Thailand.\n\nMuslim 5% and on will start using excessive influence on non-muslim by social pressure like Halal Food, Muslim schools etc. happening in France, Philippines, Sweden, Switzerland, The Netherlands, Trinidad & Tobago\n

What the local Imam in the area said about this: youtube.com/watch?v=fpDJTBBwrK­M\n\nAs a Muslim, I have to say what these ppl did was just Gang mentality manifested under the cloak of Religon. I have seen the Gang mentality manifest all too often in over-excited youth and cloak itself with different issues such as Race, Religion, Nationalism, Soccer Hooliganism etc etc. What such ppl really get is the thrill of dominating others, and only use their proclaimed issues as a cover for their actions.
