Yeah, alcohol is the drug that isn't treated as a drug. Alcohol and tobacco together kill more people than heroin, marijuana, and other drugs combined.

I think this is a good thing for Mexico. Decriminalization isn't quite as good as legalization, but it's still a good thing.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Well, looks like this isn't going to happen, folks.

Taken from Democracy Now!:

US Influence Speculated As Fox Backs of Drug Bill
In Mexico, President Vicente Fox has backed off signing a drug decriminalization bill just one day after he said he would approve it. The bill would have eliminated criminal penalties for possession of small amounts of certain drugs, including marijuana, cocaine, and heroin. Fox’s reversal is fueling suspicion he was pressured by US officials. Just hours before Fox’s announcement, the US embassy urged the Mexican government to reconsider the legislation.

I had a suspicion when Fox said he would sign it. Another triumph for US economic hitmen.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
