But in Mexico, illegal immigrants receive terrible treatment from corrupt Mexican authorities, say people involved in the system.

And Mexico has a law that is no different from Arizona’s that empowers local police to check the immigration documents of people suspected of not being in the country legally.

“There (in the United States), they’ll deport you,” Hector Vázquez, an illegal immigrant from Honduras, said as he rested in a makeshift camp with other migrants under a highway bridge in Tultitlán. “In Mexico they’ll probably let you go, but they’ll beat you up and steal everything you’ve got first.”

Yet Mexico’s Arizona-style law requires local police to check IDs. And Mexican police freely engage in racial profiling and routinely harass Central American migrants, say immigration activists.

“The Mexican government should probably clean up its own house before looking at someone else’s,” said Melissa Vertíz, spokeswoman for the Fray Matías de Córdova Human Rights Center in Tapachula, Mexico.

In one six-month period from September 2008 through February 2009, at least 9,758 migrants were kidnapped and held for ransom in Mexico — 91 of them with the direct participation of Mexican police, a report by the National Human Rights Commission said. Other migrants are routinely stopped and shaken down for bribes, it said.

I am planning a trip backpacking through Central and South America with a friend. We will be taking buses around, and staying in hostels along the way (not trekking and camping). We are starting in Argentina and working our way North.

Our biggest concern is Columbia. What is the best way to avoid the country? We aren’t sure if flying is a cheap option, or if there are boat/charter companies that go from Peru to Panama (etc.).

Also, if you have any tips on backpacking through Central and South America it would be appreciated!

Thanks!

I posted a question about what to pack for camping. We are camping from today until Sunday. It’s my parents (in their camper) and my 3 year old, 7 month old, my hubby and I in our pop up camper. Almost all of my answers were people telling me I was crazy for taking them camping and that I should find a babysitter. WHAT!? lol I’m going camping so they can experience something new. Our pop up camper has AC and my moms camper is super nice with a queen size bed, TV, shower and toilet, stove, oven, refrigerator and freezer so my boys can spend some time in there if it gets to be too hot or if they are bored etc. Why does everyone seem to think it’s terrible? I don;t get it. lol
Oh and also we aren’t even going to be out in the middle of the woods or anything. We are going to a campground by the beach. lol

Popular camp returns with new operators For many years, Camp Anita-Alta served as an outpost camp for area 4-H clubs, but it was forced to close its doors in 2008. Now, a group of local horse lovers have reorganized the site as a youth and horse camp, and they are opening it up to the public this weekend. Read more on Lenoir News-Topic

www.TogetherWeTrust.com If we must be truthful to ourselves, then we all can concur that we are really facing an energy crisis as a matter of fact. It makes a whole lot of sense to consider the advantages of solar energy as a source of your electrical energy. With rising energy prices, dwindling fossil fuel supplies, and environmental and human concerns, all ears are attuned to the solar energy possibilities. Simply put, that the solar generator is a gadget that runs all your electrical appliances by making use of the solar energy. The gadget transform solar energy into electrical energy by making use of photovoltaic cells. This solar generator is as well called “the solar lighting system”. But using solar energy to power intrusive government devices and using solar energy to power your house are worlds apart, and the question on everyone’s minds is, “Is solar energy all it’s cracked up to be, and how practical is it to consider using solar energy to power my home?” Facts about solar energy : · Solar energy is a renewable resource (it may go away at night, but we will always have it.) · Solar energy will not pollute our air with carbon dioxide and other harmful greenhouse gases and bad emissions. Solar energy can be used on different aspects. Solar energy will be used in agriculture. Greenhouses (which is entirely different from greenhouse gas) convert solar light-weight to heat to be maximized in enhancing the growth of plants and crops. Greenhouses has been around since
