Calderon is a hypocrite. Mexico decriminalized possession of small amounts of marijuana last year. And Calderon’s predecessor, Vicente Fox, is in favor of legalization in the US.

Exactly. That’s what I don’t get. They did decriminalize possession in Mexico just recently. I think he’s just worried that they, and Columbia, will begin to lose “Drug War” money as time goes on. But another thing I don’t understand: who wants to by Mexican weed?

Here’s Calderon’s simplistic statement: “They need to do a lot more in terms of reducing the consumption of drugs and to stop the flow of weapons towards Mexico…” Reduce the consumption of pot? Is he kidding?
