Trouble in Juarez, Mexico

[Sea Skimmer]

I was under the impression that the lion's share of the profits was coming from cocaine. I can't see that being easy to legalize if marijuana causes such a fuss.

That is true. However the sick thing is, in many parts of the US it’s much easier to get coke then pot, because smugglers are only interested in moving the highest profit drugs long distances and you can’t grow pot everywhere. Most pot overall is already grown inside the US, and high grade pot is often more expensive then coke because of the trouble smuggling it. If pot was freely available it would under cut coke sales in many areas.
