Mary O'Grady, columnist for the Wall Street Journal, has written columns critical of the war on drugs. Here she talks about visiting El Paso, Texas, where she finds the city council discussing legalization.
Texans Against the War on Drugs - O'Grady:WSJ.com: "El Paso, Texas: In the national debate about the efficacy and morality of the U.S. war on drugs, it is not uncommon for prohibitionists to accuse their opponents of harboring libertine motives. But as opposition to current policy increases in places like this culturally conservative and predominantly Catholic border city, that charge isn't sticking."

The MexicoBlog of the Americas Program, a fiscally sponsored program of the Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR), is written by Laura Carlsen. I monitor and analyze international press on Mexico, with a focus on security, immigration, human rights and social movements for peace and justice, from a feminist perspective. And sometimes I simply muse.
