Nayib Bukele, president of El Salvador, wants to end crime in his country and get all gang members off the streets. His prison measures are being controversial due to the treatment received by prisoners, where the latter enjoy 0 privileges and undergo forced labor.
According to the new government, lethal violence has been reduced by more than 60%.
There are images circulating online where we can see the transfer of 2,000 prisoners to a new prison, with a capacity for 40,000 inmates. This 57-acre center is the largest prison in the Americas and will be guarded day and night by 600 soldiers and 250 police officers.
For all those who consider that a violation of human rights is being committed by treating prisoners like this, we can do one thing: Imagine that the lady in the following video is your mother, grandmother, or your sister. If you keep thinking the same, maybe you are the son of a bitch without a soul.
I understand that the prisoners who go to these jails are put there for committing serious crimes, and that this must be a long-term plan that later has to be accompanied by other measures such as greater police control in the streets and economic and employment policies that make the country prosper. If you make it easier for people to be able to work and earn a decent living, the rest will come one step at a time.
