I have a friend who's a Norwegian immigrant. He's pretty cool. He speaks Norwegian too.

Yeah. You want more of these people to tear up the gang circuit. Salvadorians aren't making this country great by any means. They can go home now.
My son's best friend at school's parents are from El Salvador. They fled the civil war in the late 1980s and got US citizenship after coming in on refugee status. The gang/drug violence in El Salvador has pretty direct lineage to the civil war. Fighters on both sides of the civil war got scooped up by the drug lords to provide protection/enforcement. It was very easy for the drug lords to scoop up lots of young kids to join the gangs because tens of thousands of El Salvadoran kids were orphaned by the civil war. Also, the US war on drugs pushed a lot of narco trafficking into El Salvador. Success in going after the big cartels in Columbia and Mexico pushed a lot of drug lords into El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala to find safe haven.
Average IQ for U.S. = 98
Average IQ for Haiti = 67
Average IQ for El Salvador = 80
If the U.S. were to selectively take only immigrants with IQs above 100 from these countries, they would be depleting them of potential future leaders who could perhaps help their native countries overcome some of their current difficulties. Also, when those high-IQ individuals have children or grand-children, in America, they are likely to be less intelligent than their parents, due to regression towards the mean.
A stable democracy has never existed in a country where the IQ is below 90, but Western countries seem intent on driving theirs down as far as possible.

He just says what most people secretly think. You don't see any liberals flocking to live in Haiti or Somalia, do you? Why is that? Why won't you move you and your family there? Are you racist? Do you think they are s**tholes too?
I am a liberal. I am American. I plan to own property and retire in Belize.

For comparison, take Baltimore. By all accounts one of America's most violent cities, it's murder rate was 65 per 100,000 last year. Astonishingly high. Now double that and apply to an entire country and you have El Salvador.
This can't be. Afro-Salvadorans make up only .13% of that nation's population. Stormfront and LRC have taught me that Afro Negro people are responsible for all the crime in the world.
Just curious, I wonder what the reaction would be if someone called Norway a S---hole?
Yet, more mass murders occur in the US. More incarcerations per 100,000. More male-on-male rape. More paedophiles.

This is 100% wrong. They come here already affiliated with a gang and then get deported.
The modern era drug lords all came from Latin American countries such as Colombia and El Salvador. There’s also been a non official civil war in ask Salvador for a while. I suppose that causes a lot of deaths.
Just curious where would you rather live , if it had to be one or the other Norway or Haiti?, TV personality Joan Schwartz did not know (Hard decision) https://twitter.com/14Froger14/status/951665685683306497
I love Belize, I love the people there, the snorkeling and diving are tremendous, the fly fishing is outstanding, but there is no way in hell I would ever own property there. Between the government corruption and the hurricanes, it does not seem like a wise investment. Just ask McAfee (of course he is straight up nuts).
From Heritage.org:
Unreliable land title certificates have led to numerous property disputes involving foreign investors and landowners. The judiciary, although independent, is often influenced by the executive. Belize is the only Central American country that is not a party to the U.N. Convention Against Corruption. Since 2009, Transparency International has not had access to enough data to include Belize in its annual Corruption Perceptions Index.

Thanks, dirt. I appreciate the info.
I am young. These problems will either be solved or will have morphed into different issues requiring a wholly different calculus by the time I retire. Belize it is!

Not exactly. MS13 was formed in Los Angeles, for example, back in the 1980 by Salvadoran immigrants, and was taken back to El Salvador by deportees. There may be gang affiliated immigrants coming now, but it's gone both ways through the last ~30 years.
I am original MS13 member. Jose is right. Don't listen to these other lame ass. We were form in 1980s Los Angeles. I did many bad thing for the organization and got deported many tiempos. I run 40 mpw now

Be ready to hide under sand on the beach with a box over your head like Mr. McAffee when your Belize neighbors falsely accuse you of crimes.
Something tells me I'm a little tougher and more resourceful than McAfee.
