I am in Chihuahua Mexico. Two years ago this used to be a very pleasant city but now it has become really violent. The death toll is about 900 people just in the state and just in this year. This very serious situation has made me change my position on drugs. The gun fire is doing more damage than the drugs themselves. If people decide to damage their lives by using drugs it is their choice and it is their problem. But with this war in drugs a lot of people that have nothing to do with them are suffering. I know that Mexico has no choice, we have to fight this war, but I would prefer drugs to be un-penalized (but not legalized) in the U.S. and step up on prevention campaigns.
