End The Bloody War

Portugal decriminalized drug possession ten years ago. Portugal now treats drug use as a medical rehabilitation issue and has found good results.

Mexico's President is advocating similar drug decriminalization.
Former Mexican President Vicente Fox believes the current strategies employed against Mexico's drug cartels are not working and he is advocating a different approach.

Speaking passionately about the issue, Fox said he has a team of experts tracking drug-related violence in Mexico. He is concerned the government crackdown and cartel violence that has left about 34,000 dead in the past 4 years is also affecting trade, investment, and tourism.


America's prison and law enforcement cartels will not accept decriminalization because it would threaten their easy money gravy train.
