Does the U.S. have the right to force (and even though not much is spoken in the article of threats, it´s not hard to imagine) other countries into adopting the same idiotic kill-em-all attitude towards drug-users?

While Mexico is close to the U.S. and drug-tourism can be a problem, if mexico wanted to allow small possesion of drugs like marihuana, I would applaud it.

I´d rather have american kids going on holiday, smoking a few joints or taking a mushroom trip and coming back with a changed point of view, than to have them get drunk all the time.
