How Legal Pot Could Save Thousands of Lives? Hint: Stop Feeding the Mexican Death Cartels

liberal-linguaphile:

Let’s forget the speculation and get to certainties: what is plain as day is the fact that the demand for cannabis sativa is responsible for more deaths in Mexico than anything else—and after half a decade of unrelenting bloodshed—the body count just recently surpassed the 50,000 mark. Personally, that’s a bitter pill to swallow considering 50 percent of Americans now believe marijuana should be outright legalized, according to Gallup’s most recent poll from October 2011.

An article that talks sense about how legalizing marijuana could save lives? Well, this is going to work because a) the American government doesn’t care about saving Mexican lives, and b) the American government doesn’t do things that make sense.

Nice to see that someone else is connecting the dots between prohibition, a #$&^%#ed up foreign policy with Latin America and @#&*~ed up immigration system in the United States
