And a warning issued by some government agency was derided by an hispanic-rights group as “profiling”.

I've camped in Pike National Forest. I've had tortillas and played Mexican music while camping there, and drank Corona (but not Tecate) - about 2 1/2 of the three profile points provided.

The warning was so stupidly worded that it could apply to anyone who spoke Spanish out for a weekend camping trip. In northern New Mexico that is about one-half of the LEGAL population. I'm not a fan of illegal immigrants, not by a long shot. But in this case I have to agree with the charge of profiling. It threw away the barrel for a few bad apples. Use common sense when in the back country, folks. And if you run into any of these types, it might just be a good idea to be armed and be able to use it.
