This letter, though cause for the feelings it generates. On the one hand, the exposure to death no matter what, and secondly the need for a better future. I wonder whether it is better to fight it at home, with the love of his family, instead of arriving in a country that receives a kick to many immigrants who are exposed to these circumstances. The coldness of the people and the lifestyle does not compare to that of our country warm and full of life.
The U.S. government has launched two campaigns in the media to prevent immigrants crossing the border illegally and hiding children that use in cars, trucks and even tanks of fuel.
One ad released Thursday shows a young girl gasping for air needed in the trunk of a car while her mother frantically hits the plate of the vehicle. Other ads include images cemeteries and funeral processions.
The Department of Homeland Security announced some of the ads on Thursday in the border at San Ysidro, San Diego, the busiest in the country by immigrants.
The campaign, in English, focuses on what officials say is an alarming practice of smugglers who place children in compartments of vehicles that could become deadly traps.
The dissemination of advertising coincides with the launch of another campaign Patrol Border on the dangers of illegally crossing the border.
These television spots began to spread last week in the Mexican state of Michoacán, and will be exhibited this week in some U.S. cities, including Los Angeles, Chicago and Houston.
The campaign announced Thursday will go to cities along the California-Mexico border. The federal government had previously funded campaigns to prevent illegal crossing of immigrants, but this is one of the most ambitious efforts.
The Campaign Border Patrol 1.5 million dollars and called "No more crosses on the border 'is the first agency on television, said an organizer, Gloria Chavez.
Some immigrants who heard or saw ads in the Mexican city of Tijuana said they were correct and impressive, but vowed to return to the United States anyway.
The authorities are particularly concerned about the risks to children. On one occasion, inspectors found a 14 year old trapped under the metal bars of the seat a car, and a child hidden in a tank of gas. A three year old also appeared in a piñata.
Almost 6,500 children were detained at border of California in a 12-month period ended September 30, 2004, an increase of 17 percent over the previous year, according to the Office Customs and Border Protection San Diego.
