VIDEOS: LATIN AMERICAN STREET GANGS IN AMERICA
Latin American Street Gangs in America Street gangs have existed in the United States since the 1800s. But in the last few years, street gangs have grown more violent, more numerous and more widespread, from the big cities to rural areas. Many gang members are illegal aliens, mostly from Latin America. The series below tells the story about where they receive their deadly "training," while they blame the American legal system for creating the gang culture that they spread freely around the world.
Gang members joining the military to train for war on the streets, will return lethal military training to their neighborhoods.

7-part series: El Salvador Gang – 18 Street
In San Salvador, El Salvador, two thousand miles from Los Angeles's 18th Street, a gang known as "18" governs its territory like an armed militia. In the mid 1990s, thousands of Salvadoran nationals living illegally in the U.S. were deported to their homeland. Some brought L.A. gang culture back with them to a country beset by poverty and awash in arms. Organizing support for gang members in need, meting out justice to those who would defy the gang's code and waging an endless vendetta against its enemies, 18 is helping to make El Salvador one of the most violent and crime-ridden countries in the world. "18 with a Bullet" presents a chilling portrait of six months in the life of this notorious Central American gang.
