It is true- but I don't think people are hauling it down in trucks. Just big trash bags. Must be too much surplus pot in Cali from all the medical dispensaries. Purple Kush in Rosarito for $150 an ounce? Who says Baja isn't a bargain?

Mexico isn't ready to legalize drugs yet, they want more narcos to get their fair share of $$$ first I guess.

Mexico is not ready to legalize drugs: Olvera Ruiz
http://www.frontera.info/EdicionEnLinea/Notas/Nacional/16092...


The country is not ready to legalize drugs to minimize or eradicate the violence generated by organized crime, said the governor of Hidalgo, Francisco Olvera Ruiz. The weapons to combat this phenomenon are education , employment and family values to build the country's youth, he added in an interview. The president stated that Mexico is not prepared to legalize drugs because "we are a heterogeneous society, very plural, with different cultural patterns and screens, and I do not might be time to legalize the alternative. " He explained that as a young man hopelessly work, development, "and that the roots through work, sport and education to the family, the less will be the temptation to engage in marginal or less activity will be tempted by alcohol or drug addictions. " In addition to these elements, he said Olvera Ruiz, "should be ready with the police, because they only fight the effect" of organized crime.

Boutique buds for ex-pats. Not the general public.

Those in the know would want to appear as a local, and not a tourist. Passing as Mexican isn't a bad ideal either.

Think it might take more than the Army to stem the flow, though.

Distributing any drugs in Rosarito without cartel or police support would be fatal. It must be supply chain only.

The topic article must be from the Onion. So, they have confiscated so much marijuana in Baja and gringos are smuggling in marijuana from the U.S. to fill the void?

Let's just legalize the chit, get on with our lives, and make an honest living without profiteering from the prohibition. Sell the meth at drug addiction clinics at non-illicit prices with a program to reduce the doses toward eventual cessation of use. We're spending billions on a weed that is damn near free to grow and what's basically just souped up Sudafed. It's as much of a joke as Nixon's 55 MPH law was.

I know importing pot to Mexico sounds crazy, but where do you expect the illicit drug growers to sell their product? If they aren't a certified supplier to a co-op, they have to sell it illegally. If the co-ops get shut down en masse, none of them have a legal outlet for the pot. Some apparently goes south where the demand for anything other than commercial dirtweed is there. I doubt it is in large quantities as another poster commented.

Small, personal use quantities of most all drugs are legal in Mexico. I think for pot it is 6grams. But if you get caught three times using in public, you have to go to re-hab.
