How will Mexico's drug laws affect us?
Permalink  

Mexico last month adopted a law that decriminalizes the possession of small amounts of marijuana and harder drugs, including cocaine and heroin.

Other Latin American countries are considering doing the same.

How will these laws affect America?
Do you believe that this was the right thing to do?
Should America do the same?

well, cocaine and heroin will still be brought in to the U.S., regardless of these new laws in Mexico. And considering that a lot of the marijuana in the U.S. is grown within the borders, these laws won't have a large effect on the US

at least that's my opinion

Yea, i don't see this impactiing us much either. We are still going to have the same drug problem, and until people get smart enough to get off of drugs, then we always will have this problem.

I don't think this would impact us much. We do have similar laws so i don't think it would reduce any usage/purchase or possesion of drugs.

It doesn't affect us at all. Except for drugs coming over the border...no not at all.
