Did I hear correctly? Has Mexico legalized marijuana?

Yeah, dude! Where you been? We're all, like, getting a big bus to go down there, man, and check it out. We'll pick you up on the corner. Oh, wait, I forgot what corner. I'll get back to you. Later, dude.

I hope they sell Doritos in Mexico?

From what I read they legalized a lot more than just weed.

Link Please!!!

-as i reach for passport-

I believe the story is this:

The Mexican president was going to sign a bill to legalize it, but Bush called him and talked him out of it. He said Americans would go there to get high and return.

Darn the bad luck.

It's bieng discussed in this thread.

I haven't been keeping up with it so there may have been a change of plans.

Mexican President Fox didn't sign the bill, so nothing happened.

BTW, the bill would decriminalize, not legalize. Subtle but important difference. Here's the link:

Yep, Fox caved. Just like a politian, politico, uh, legis...what were we saying?

I wonder what on Earth would give him such a crazy notion. Return? Some would probably stay.

And I thought the deal wasn't for just weed. It was all kinds of drugs.

But George got a call from Dad, who knows the value of keeping drugs illegal ("Guns for Hostages," anyone?), and who told him to slap some sense into Fox.

I don't know what the big deal is, anyway. Like Dave Attel says, yeah, pot is illegal, but it's not THAT illegal. I don't know anyone who has a hard time finding "illegal" pot if they want it.
