Question by Maricopa County: Will activists blame Americans for this and why is there drug rehab in MEXICO activists said MEXICANS did not?
Will activists blame Americans for this and why is there drug rehab in MEXICO activists said MEXICANS did not ever use drugs and this is why the drugs come here ?CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico — At least 30 gunmen burst into a drug rehabilitation center in a Mexican border state capital and opened fire, killing 19 men and wounding several others, police said.

The killings happened late Thursday at the Faith and Life center in Chihuahua city, about 210 miles (350 kilometers) south of Ciudad Juarez and the border with El Paso, Texas, said state police spokesman Fidel Banuelos.

They came a day after unidentified assailants killed one man and wounded another at a rehab center in Ciudad Juarez.

The men at the Faith and Life center were roused out of bed shortly before 11 p.m. and placed face-down along a hallway, the center’s director, Cristian Rey Ramirez, told The Associated Press.

Ramirez was alerted to the attack by the center’s pastor by telephone.

“He tells me, ‘You know what, come here because they just killed everyone,'” Rey said. “There was no warning.”

The attackers left messages accusing the victims of being criminals, Banuelos said.

Four other people were hospitalized but their conditions were not immediately known.

The victims ranged in age from 30 to 40, and included a blind man, said the Rev. Rene Castillo, a minister who gives weekly sermons at the center.

“Everyone is so scared now,” he said, adding that violence is “all everyone talks about, especially with all the threats that have been made.”

President Felipe Calderon, whose war on drugs has claimed nearly 23,000 lives since he took office in late 2006, issued a statement Friday condemning the shootings.

“They are outrageous acts that reinforce the conviction of the need to fight criminal groups who carry out such barbaric acts with full legal force,” he said.

Police have said that two of Mexico’s six major drug cartels are exploiting rehab centers to recruit hit men and drug smugglers, often threatening to kill those who don’t cooperate. Others are killed for failing to pay for drugs or betraying a dealer.

More than 60 people have died in mass shootings at rehab clinics in a little less than two years.

Question by Henry: Is there a good argument, backed by facts or statistics against marijuana’s legalization?
I don’t use but I do support people’s right to. I always thought medical marijuana was a little bit of a joke until I realized from my aunt how horrible chemotherapy is. We live in Texas and my aunt is in almost constant agony. She is not expected to live but we are hoping. I see medical marijuana patients praise and adore it not because it gets them high but because it’s the only thing that’s guaranteed to work instantly and consistently. And cancer medication is EXTREMELY expensive, weed is dirt cheap and there’s no risk of O.D or dependency.

Every study or article i come across debunk’s the traditional view of marijuana being a bad drug. One study said that small amounts of THC actually INCREASE one’s driving skill because you become very cautious and aware. No one’s ever going to O.D on weed alone and even the smoke is widely believed to be harmless since pot smokers have virtually none of the health problems cigarette smokers do. Another study says weed decreases your chances of getting badder cancer.

The only negative i come across is bronchitis but even then that’s hardly anything compared to lung or liver cancer since it’s not even permanent.

I think that the smoke has to have some bad effect but then what do you say to people who use vaporizers? They’re becoming a lot more popular and everyone says a vaporizer is better than smoking in every single way. And of course hemp can make clothing, hemp paper, hemp milk, hemp oil, it’s almost as diverse in it’s uses as soy.

I honestly think lobbyists help to keep it illegal as well. (one of the few conspiracies i actually believe) and i think that legal weed would put Shady Carlos from the inner city out of work. Also wouldn’t decriminalizing weed take away that forbidden fruit aspect? Cigarettes are far less appealing now that people have been educated with actual facts.

My aunt says if she had weed, she’d use it to try and get some of her life back. So I’m unsure as to whether or not i would give my own aunt pot! lol.
What do you guys think?

There are no “statistics” or “facts”, because large scale marijuana use in a major country has never been tried.
No one can answer the question as no one can give facts or figures for a post apocalyptic world.
There has been no apocalypse.
(Purposefully dramatic to make a point.)
Medical marijuana for palliative care should probably be ignored, if not condoned outright.
That’s my opinion.
The problem will be some snarky wit who claims we’re all going to die anyway….

As for driving stoned, I know better.
I’d guess most people alive in the US today, know better, too.
It isn’t safe, and having a stoner holding his head and mouthing: “Whoa, Dude!” at an accident sight, is not as good as preventing the accident.
