Talk:Marielitos (gangs)

Change name
The term "Marielito" refers to anybody who was a emigrant in the Mariel boatlift. The word is no synonymous with gang members. While gangs of marielitos exist this page should have a better name such as "Marielito gangs" rather than the current name "Marielito (gangs)" inferring the term itself can be used in a solely criminal context.

Here are some links supporting the definition I'm talking about.'

Even Wikitionary https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Marielito says the term Marielito refers to refugees not criminals.Mangokeylime (talk) 19:05, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
