    None of those are mainstrem and should be in line with what an inquisitive writer for a major publication who opines from a high horse should know.

    Assuming you write or used to write for such a publication of course, no outing.

    You seem to take pride in ignorance.

    I would assume.

    Who knows, nobody has ever heard of them.

    You aren't, but MS-13 is a bigger deal than all of those things and has been for a while. That said, your overall point is correct, which is why YF is clinging so tenaciously to his little angle.

    I'm the one on a high horse? You're the one telling me what I should know and not know. Who made you King of my Memory Bank?

    I dare say you know things I don't know. And I would guess I know some things you don't know. It's amazing how knowledge works.

    But I thought this was new and nobody had ever heard of them?

    I need to shower, it feels like I am defending the Orange buffoon.

    I don't think the argument was that it's new. It's that it hasn't had the high profile awareness currently being received so it's flown under the radar for a lot of people.

    The fact that you had to pull a story from 2008 kind of helps prove my point.

    I said in my original post, that I regret so mightily, that they were formed in the 1980s. They are apparently not new. It is, however, definitely new that MS-13 is part of the national conversation.
