Rarely are administrations doing 'nothing' about threats
ICE does not track gang removals by specific gang, but the agency does specifically target MS-13 members for arrest and removal on the basis of their immigration violations, said Matthew Bourke, a spokesman for the agency.
Bourke said 5,396 gang members were removed in fiscal year 2017 (which includes about four months of the Obama administration, running from Oct. 1, 2016 through Sept. 30, 2017).
From Oct. 1, 2017 through Dec. 16, 2017 (the latest data available), 1,082 gang members were removed.

the only debate is around subjective perceptions of what is too little, enough, or too much.
Obama made little ..or no mention...of MS-13 all while they built their ranks thru out his tenor. Left unchecked by our government. Not only illegals.. but killers to boot. MS-13 had become public enemy number one, behind the crips, bloods and the black gangster disciples. With no plan to rid our streets of these gangs during Obama's administration. They deported.. after the fact.. after the crimes were committed and they were caught by the cops... key word...after.
That is the major flaw in the lefts logic.. or lack of it.. deport them... after.. the crime has been committed as opposed to not letting them in , in the first place
And now we have president who is taking them head on..one who is calling it the way it is.. and doing something solid about it. and you want to give Obama credit.. Problem is, people with intelligence don't buy that...left..or right
these 20,000 aliens marching thru Mexico right now.. coming here.. do you rally think they are all good people... are you and the left that naïve?
But you hold your arms open and welcome... then state " well, its just normal crime, its o.k to arrest and deport them now"" when they kill, rape, deal drugs and gang bang
Like I said in another post.. invite them all to live in your town.. see how long it takes for you to be too afraid to walk your own streets.
