Living in the Sewers of Colombia

Aside from literally sleeping in feces, these people are dodging rats, flash floods and drug addicts. What's worse, the sewer dwellers are constantly under attack by local "death squads," who fire open rounds and pour gasoline into their underground homes, then set them ablaze.

little do people know social cleansing is not only a part of colombian society but in other south american countries like brazil and guatemala they have also been doing this some since the 1980s. and it's not only children and criminals they kill, they also kill you just for being homeless, being a homosexual, or being a prostitute

[TigerMonthlyHits]

as for the people who are expecting a baby and live down there... it disgusts me how people can bring children into that environment, and they have a puppy, eww that's trashy I'm sorry, if you want to live like that, you don't need a puppy or to conceive children.

[TigerMonthlyHits]

I wouldn't go down there for millions, I feel very sad for the people who have no other choices.

[shakysyxx]

Very sad,that's all I got to say.And the Colombian authorities should be disgusted with themselves.
