Respond
to
Ambassador's
Anti-Legalization
Speech
6/29/01
Two weeks ago, DRCNet reported that discussion
of legalization seemed to be making the United States' Mexican embassy
nervous as border governors of the two countries gathered for their annual
conference (http://www.drcnet.org/wol/190.html#bordergovernors).
NarcoNews.com has provided a full English
translation of US Ambassador to Mexico Jeffrey Davidow's anti-legalization
speech, with a host of responses submitted by reformers and a short response
from the embassy itself. Visit http://www.narconews.com/readerstodavidow.html
to check it out.
Drug War on Trial: Narco News
is currently preparing for the big day in court -- July 20th -- in a case
that has important implications for free speech in the age of the Internet.
