Viva Mexico

A new law went into effect in Mexico last week that decriminalizes possession of small amounts of marijuana, cocaine, heroin, LSD and methamphetamine. People caught with drugs for “personal use” will not face criminal prosecution but will be required to complete treatment programs if they are caught for a third time. Basically 4 lines of coke, 4 joints are legal. With this law Mexico hopes to be able to focus more on the big drugs traffickers and to help protect minor offenders from the corrupt police. In the Netherlands being caught with small amounts is not officially legal but they do not make a big deal about it. I think it’s a great new law!! People should decide themselves if they wanna do drugs!
