Free Drugs In Mexico! Oops, Just Kidding
What's new about this? Oh, yeah, Mexico isn't going to leaglize drug use afterall. Was this just a dumb idea or a jab at the US for the immigration hodgepodge or what? You know we always believe there's a back story to these types of news items. Vincente Fox may be a lame duck but he's a pretty smart politician. Hey, isn't Dick Morris advising Mexican politicians these days? Yo, Dick, what up, dude?
Here:
In a surprise reversal, Mexican President Vicente Fox will not sign a widely criticized reform to decriminalize the possession of small quantities of marijuana, cocaine and heroin, his office said on Wednesday.
The president's office said the law, which also toughened sentences for dealing and holding larger amounts of the intoxicants, would be sent back to Congress for revision.
