Las Pandillas- Formal Writing #1
En El Salvador, un hombre llamado Luis Ernesto Romero es un heroe porque el ayuda a jovenes que son ex-pandilleros, como el mismo lo es. Luis Ernesto encontro ayuda tambien y lo que lo hizo cambiar tambien fue el nacimiento de su hija. Ahora el ayuda a los jovenes dandoles trabajo y lugares seguros para vivir. Muchas veces es dificil encontrar trabajo cuando tienen tatuajes. Muchos pandilleros tienen tatuajes, y como en muchas partes del mundo, en El Salvador los tatuajes dan mala reputacion y esa es una razon por que no les dan empleo. Luis Ernesto ayuda a los pandilleros en maneras especiales que les cambia la vida y los hace sentir mejor.
