Legalized Drugs

Logging onto the internet the other day I came across a news report on msnbc that I found to be incredibly interesting. The Mexican legislation has passed a bill that would make small amounts of drug possession legal in Mexico. This would put more police action in dealing with large drug operations as oppposed to personal use. The bill is only waiting for the president's signature now. It will be interesting to see, if the bill becomes a law, how this will affect drug problems in Mexico and the U.S.'s reaction. Amsterdam may just be a little closer for some people.
