As we regularly hear about "press repression" in Nicaragua, this bit of regional news seems to add a bit of perspective. Much like the article about dealing with mining activists in El Salvador, murder is an effective way of eliminating those ongoing complaints.

As we have Nicaragua and Guatemala covered, I decided adding this article about mining in El Salvador fit right in. The similarity is another Canadian company. The main difference is that it sounds like murder is the solution.

I had 5 Kyocera panels, a Trace 1224 (or 2412), a C30 charge controller, and 10 Marine Group 75 batteries from Cosco (think it was calledc Price Club back in those days). I had a small gas generator to back the system up.
