Maybe you don’t know, but here in Mexico we have a saint not recognized by the Catholic Church, that has numerous loyals. The “Santo Malverde” was a kind of mexican Robin Hood borned on march 5, 1888 in the northwest of Mexico. Today, drug dealers pray for his favours and maybe, their prayers were listened (May 3 is “his” day, coincidence?). The mexican congress approved the legal possesion for most of the drugs including marijuana, cocaine, metanphetamines … Unfortunately, President Fox has voewed the bill today, and has returned it to the congress in order to “clearly state that the possesion of a drug (illegal) or its consumption is a crime”. We have said it and will say it again, they are shortsighted and their actions are wide loaded of ignorance and stupidity. A great opportunity is fadding away, legal consumption will end up with much of the violence we are living in our country, legal sales will pay taxes, addicts could be treated disminuishing their dosis, the government will know how is importing and distributing drugs… ups, sorry…
Of course we couldn’t legalize drugs before the US build the wall, can you just imagine the illegal inmigration into Mexico?
I’m scared!!!
