The Mexican Drug Siesta Plan

Mexico Wants to Partially Decriminalize Drugs -- MEXICO CITY - In a bold move reminiscent of a Cheech & Chong movie or a dose of Ex-lax, the Mexican government has decided to partially decriminalize drugs. When asked to confirm this new strategy in it's war against drugs, Reynaldo Juarez, Mexico's Minister of Silly Notions and Government Initiatives said, "Si."

Does that mean there will be no arrests for small quantities of certain drugs?

"Si."

Or does it mean only certain drugs will be illegal?

"Si."

Or . . . does it mean people will still be arrested but the penalties will be lowered?

"Si."

Or does it mean the police will confiscate half of your drugs for resale and you will only face criminal charges for what is left?

"Si."

Or . . . does it mean a new category of crime . . . such as felonies and misdemeanors . . . will the new crime category be called a "semimeanor" . . . or maybe a "quasimeanor"?

"Si."

. . . . . . Does . . . your wife . . . charge by the hour or is it more like piecework?

"Si."

You don't speak any English, do you?

"Si."

There you have it folks. The Mexican government has a brilliant plan to partially decriminalize drugs and the man I am talking to is an idiot. Isn't that right, sir?

"Si."

And these are the people outsmarting our border patrols.
