I don’t think you understand how completely gangs had effectively taken over El Salvador until recently. Despite the obvious issues that you’ve pointed out, the situation is genuinely miles better than it was before for the vast majority of the population who were simply trying to live their lives.

Thats what I meant with ‘if security gets really low, you are willing to sacrifice a lot of freedom’

My major complaint is, that he doesnt have a plan for the time after they will eventually get out of prison.

Considering how strict he is, doubt they’re getting out of prison soon.

Wait. There was a plan to release anyone? I thought the guy who invites an armed military observers to the parliament voting session wouldn’t bother with that.
