La guerra mas sucia , que jamas haya existido , por que continuo durante el proceso de paz , y aun continua asta este dia , dio inicio una nueva guerra contra el pobre , y surgio las maras , que son controladas por dirigentes , que son manipulados por los ricos y los estados unidos , como venganza , de lo que sucedio antes de la guerra , asi es que la guerra sucia , nunca a terminado , es el pobre extorsionando y asesinando al pobre , dirijidos por , intereses nacionales y extrangeros , y que los mismos por mantener sus lujos , no les importa mandar a matar a cualquiera por un dolar , si se dan cuenta a las colonias de los adinerados no se acercan, que triste ver como sangran a mi pais
