Legal to use LSD in Mexico now.. how'd I miss this!

"Under the bill, it would be legal to have 25 milligrams of heroin, a fifth of an ounce of marijuana or half a gram of cocaine. The bill also makes it legal to possess small amounts of LSD, hallucinogenic mushrooms, amphetamines and peyote."

Holy! Now I know what I'll be doing if I visit Mexico again. It'll be a sad thing if I need to cross the border (I'm a USA fck) consume peyote one friggen time, legally.

It's too bad they didn't take this a step further in a logical way to actually deal with the problem and produce and sell the drugs themselves. The primary thing that makes the druglords so powerful is the sheer high price that is paid for the drugs by the users from what I've gathered.

Setting up a business in Mexico for classes on psychedelics that inform and provide the safe environment normally needed for their use (and purchase) would be kickass --- and fun.

 

Sorry to burst your bubble, but if you research that event a little further you will find that this is old news, and that the change in the laws to legalise certain amounts of certain drugs, failed miserably ans was rejected like a bad heart, and died almost as soon as the idea was born.

Actually the main opposition came from the United States and President Fox. It passed congress but was vetoed by the President.
