[edit] Incorrect Information

There is false information in this article declaring that the 18th Street Gang is the biggest gang in the United States. This is incorrect by a large amount, as the Mara Salvatrucha gang is much larger, with a known 100, 000+ members. The source for this information was a documentary which featured such information as this from the Defense Department of the USA.

This is only heresay. But I can say that I never heard of MS13 when I was growing up in the 70's. But... 18 Has been around longer than that. We we were not sitting idle before than. We are world wide. Not just in El Salvadore or in the Latin American countries. But in the whole world. If such quotes are being given let's give some reliable sources here and where we can find them. Cause all sources are unreliable unless we can prove the source.
