> In early October, El Salvador’s police announced the seizure of 2,026 firearms, including 1,371 pistols and other small arms
> Imports of certain high-caliber firearms are prohibited. Arms for personal defense or hunting may be imported but are strictly controlled
No open carry either. Sounds like gun control to me. It goes way beyond “putting gangsters in prison” and a large part of the plan is investment in education to get kids away from this path.
One thing to note is the 72000 in prison did not receive a life sentence. They will be released at some point, and one has to trust that the “integration” part of the plan will work.
There are also an infinite amount of reports of police abuse, violence, unlawful imprisonment, and media being silenced. We’ll only know the true cost of this many years from now.
