Description: For more of this video, visit www.VBS.tv The first time I heard anything about people in the sewers in Colombia was back at the beginning of the 90s when ABC Primetime Live did a piece about all the children living down there. It became a fairly big humanitarian story in the media for a while, with other networks in America and Europe sending in crews to cover it and folks setting up charities abroad. And rightfully so—the situation at the time was a complete fucking nightmare. The sewers were filled with packs of kids living waist-deep in shit and taking in copious amounts of glue and crack in order to cope. This was at the height of Colombia's "Dirty War", and the whole reason the street kids had gone down into the sewers in the first place was to get away from the violence. But then the paramilitary death squads who had chased them off the street started to come into the pipes and shoot them or douse them in gasoline or rape them. Ten-year-old girls were giving birth and trying to raise babies in the middle of sewage (the early onset of puberty having been brought on by the constant molestation by adults and older kids as well as the general stress on their bodies). It was about as fucked as things get.

ministro666 ::: Favorites it's terrible but they choose this way of live taking drugs, quiting school, stealing their family, and they eventually kill to survive. I understand the police mesurements, but in the most of the cases, the "recicladores" are nice people. The thiefs are people who don't want to job because stealing is a good job for them, they are who deserve to be burned up 07-07-26 23:55:45 __________________________________________________
