Authorities in at least two towns in northwestern Colombia are on high alert after pamphlets appeared that warned about pending “social cleansing” operations.
The pamphlets appeared in the towns of La Ceja and Apartado, both located in the Antioquia province. Also in the town of Remedios, threatening pamphlets were reportedly handed out, resulting in local shopkeepers to keep their establishments shut.
In La Ceja, a pamphlet signed by “New Generation,” one of multiple neo-paramilitary groups formed during the demobilization of paramilitary organization AUC, threatened to kill five determined “bums.”
The pamphlets had been going around since last week, warning the “bums” they will be killed while imposing a 9PM curfew on the entire population.
One of the threatened persons was subsequently assassinated.

There has been "speculation" that the Bogota's gamines disappeared under similar circumstances.Those new to Colombia may not be familiar with the term "gamines";generations of street kids, roamed Bogota's downtown for years.They wreaked havoc;while most tried to neglect them;others took it upon themselves to rid the city of these discarded casualties of society.Church groups and grupos de caridad put themselves in harm's way to shelter these kids and give them a sense of meaning. nialljoreilly.com/2013/03/10/the-gamines-los-gaminos-of-bogota/

I would imagine dead bums dieing in a shopping cart fire isn't a IHIT list topper
