Totally agree with everything you said.
A lot of people got rounded up for just being affiliated with gang members or having family members involved. I heard this first hand from people. If you even know a gang member and you didn’t turn them in, you get the same treatment.
Its harsh.
There was a Chinese businessman I met on that trip that told me a lot of countries do it this way. He said Americans are so dumb, they think everywhere is like the USA. He said we have it too easy and we’re spoiled.
Food for thought.
