Mexico legalizes drug posession
Wow! This is a big deal for Mexcio I believe. Now if only the US can follow suit and do the same thing. We could start to take some of the power away from the Mexican Cartels.
Mexico Legalizes Drug Possession

Published: August 21, 2009
MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico enacted a controversial law on Thursday decriminalizing possession of small amounts of marijuana, cocaine, heroin and other drugs while encouraging government-financed treatment for drug dependency free of charge.
The law sets out maximum “personal use” amounts for drugs, also including LSD and methamphetamine. People detained with those quantities will no longer face criminal prosecution; the law goes into effect on Friday.
Anyone caught with drug amounts under the personal-use limit will be encouraged to seek treatment, and for those caught a third time treatment is mandatory — although no penalties for noncompliance are specified.
Mexican authorities said the change only recognized the longstanding practice here of not prosecuting people caught with small amounts of drugs.
The maximum amount of marijuana considered to be for “personal use” under the new law is 5 grams — the equivalent of about four marijuana cigarettes. Other limits are half a gram of cocaine, 50 milligrams of heroin, 40 milligrams for methamphetamine and 0.015 milligrams of LSD.
President Felipe Calderón waited months before approving the law.

Dignity associated with life
"I think we're all on the same page on this one. One of the main problems is that there is no respect for the common man in this country. They are not even granted the dignity of a dog on the street. This extends from the way they are treated by the police down to basic rights to exist such as food and healthcare. Who's is in charge? We the people or some oligarcy. I think we would see the cooperation of the average man in solving this nations problems much more if there was at least a little dignity associated with life." from Kevin in Tucson
