Mexico enacts 'PERSONAL USE' drug law
Mexico enacts 'personal use' drug law
Posted 5m ago
MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico has enacted a controversial law that decriminalizes possession of small amounts of marijuana, cocaine and heroin.
The law defines "personal use" amounts for those drugs, as well as LSD and methamphetamines.
It says people found with those amounts will not face criminal prosecution, but that if caught a third time they will be required to complete treatment programs, though no punishment is specified to enforce that.
The law enacted Thursday says anyone caught with personal-use quantities of drugs will be urged to seek treatment for dependency. It takes effect Friday.
In 2006, the U.S. government publicly criticized a similar bill. Then-President Vicente Fox sent that legislation back to Congress for reconsideration.

Wow, I think I've now heard it all! These are the people Obama wants to legalize? Unbelievable! The so called war on drugs in mexico is a joke, the drug cartels own the country, the officials, the businesses, the people and everything else in mexico. I call this drug law (HA) proof of mass corruption in mexico.
Time to stop "cooperating" with a government like that.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

And if you smoke a couple pounds of pot and do a kilo of cocaine a day, does that count?
