Argentine court decriminalises limited use of drugs

Irish Sun
Thursday 24th April, 2008
(IANS)

A federal court here has decriminalised the limited use of drugs, thus annulling thousands of cases involving people accused of possessing small quantities of marijuana.

/snip/

The court gave the ruling while acquitting two young people arrested for possession of ecstasy drugs at a music party in Buenos Aires in 2007.

That'd sure clean up the USA's court calendar and prison space now wouldn't it?

Then the police can spend more time on REAL criminals.

Interesting, but not surprising, that Google turned up only ONE other link on this story,

That being Thaindian News

Hmmmmmmm . . .

Where are CNN and Fox on this?

MSM is pretty quiet on this one,

Anyone shocked??

I thought so
