Ambigubot: The economic system is the closest to an oligarchy as you can get. families get jobs. qualified people don't matter. color is your social class. doctors work in sewers (but more likely you'll find him driving your cab). It's a country that embraces the holistically projected american stigma more than any other in the world. What do you think Colombia's civil war is about? Do you think these death squads are humane, or are you too a proponent for "social cleansing"? It's children that grow up to be stuck in there, in-front of the camera. If you think this is bullshit, expect it walking closer to the door every day. If you can't empathize with well spoken people then empathize with fiction and read the first couple of chapters of enders shadow... some people aren't given lifestyle choices. They're real people.

Guezz: Dude thats crap... this guy presents these people as victims and thats BS. I agree there is no justification for just erasing them, but they are far from being victims. Just ask all the raped women that are attacked daily by some of this low-lifes. I know their kind, hell, I live next to them!! They thrive on attention, they present themselves as victims of the police and death squads, however the document should also show them while rapping women and stabbing people to take a cell phone. That actually happened to a friend (the stabbing part), he is a graphic designer and now he cant use his hand to operate a computer.

Lancev32: Wasn't very impressed by this clip. There are sewer's all over the world that have low-lifes living in them. Didnt have to go all the way to Columbia to see them. I have seen a lot worse. Check out the glue sniffing kids in Romania either on You Tube or for a more heart wretching expericance, go see them first hand. .... That being said, I think what bothered me most was this little weasel "Baby Balls". Does a lot of whining. Yes Baby Balls, there is a lot of ugly in the this world. I dont want to sound like a prick, and I usually like VBS's Doc... just not impressed with this BB kid. I check some more of his clips.. Maybe this one just rubbed me wrong. Cheers.

bonitaapplebaum: This is unbelievable. I love the concept of this show so much; so many doc shows tend to just glaze over these types of horrible realities by conducting sympathetic interviews in hotel rooms far away from where people actually have to live. Showing not telling is always better. Great show!

kbloom99: This documentary would have been so much more ppowerful if we actually could have learned how the former street/sewer kid got out of this life. Or how about a little more info on the work the Dr. is doing, the name of an NGO working with these people. It is great that some awareness of this issue has now been generated "gracias a" Vice, but it could have been so much more substantial. Cut some of the baby balls sniveling b.s. and add in some more substance. At least let us know more about the Dr. and how we could potentially support his efforts.
