Seriously??

It’s now legal to be stupid AND stoned down there?

[PureSolace]

Legal to own “personal use” sizes of drugs, while offering free detox and care from the gov’t? Add on top of that dealers with their own “personal use” sizes of drugs and “gifting” them to others while those others “gift” the dealers money, guns and sex... seems like an endless cycle and a money pit... especially with the free gov’t kickbacks.

Oh good. Now they can come over the border drugged up.

Gen McCaffery wrote in a report to the Dept of Defense and the White House that Mexico was in danger of descending in anarchy as a Narco-Terrorist state.

It has already begun, and this is surrender.

[Dumpster Baby]

Legalize everything and there is no crime! What a concept!

[Gay State Conservative]

That's just what Mexico needs to cut their crime rate.If they legalize the production,possession and distribution of less than ten tons of heroin,cocaine and marijuana their crime rate will drop by 95%.

[depressed in 06]

Is it now legal to sale that amount?

[mysterio]

Wow, now even Mexico has smarter drug laws than we do.

End the failed drug war.

I wonder if this applies to non-citizens? I would think it does but with Mexico you never know. If it is legal to have and use drugs in Mexico maybe we will see a migration of our drug addicts to Mexico~ ha ha that would be poetic justice.

Before all you ‘moral authoritarians’ go off the deep end, consider this.

Drug Decriminalization in Portugal:
Lessons for Creating Fair and Successful Drug Policies

“...more than seven years have now elapsed since enactment of Portugal’s decriminalization system, there are ample data enabling its effects to be assessed.

...none of the nightmare scenarios touted by preenactment decriminalization opponents — from rampant increases in drug usage among the young to the transformation of Lisbon into a haven for “drug tourists” — has occurred.”

Mexico, libertarian paradise.

Par for the course.

[Munz]

UNREAL.
now just as in europe, they will lose a generation to drug abuse.

Instead of taking the battle head on and stopping it, they act like a parent who catches their kids smoking then just buy cigarettes for them

It will be somehow subsidized by American taxpayers, be proclaimed by the Dems a great success, and become law here as well.

[nufsed]

Good start. Mexico gets one right.

Pingo!

They have to do this as their current “pressure release valve” known as the USA is approaching bankruptcy. This is nothing but a move to ensure that corrupt political class in Mexico City stay in power.

[secretagent]

Mexico leads the way - a small but significant positive first step. Hopefully they will next legalize production as well.

We should follow their example. A free republic has no proper role in interfering with consensual acts.
