Aquí en Uruguay nos atrevemos a actuar, estamos oreganiazando la "global marihuana march" Les cuento que: La legislación Uruguaya en materia de drogas es bastante avanzada con respecto a otros países sudamericanos, ya que permite el consumo de cualquier droga. Pero encierra una contradicción muy importante, ningunas de las formas de acceso a las sustancia es legal, la plantación, el cultivo, la cosecha y la comercialización son ilegales y pasibles de sanciones penales. Como decimos nosotros "la única manera de no delinquir es que te caiga del cielo". Este año hay elecciones en nuestro país y como todos los años electorales los políticos estarán ansiosos de acercase a causas de las que puedan sacar algún rédito, esto lo hacen en todo su derecho. Pero a nosotros nos da la oportunidad de poner el tema drogas en la agenda de la campaña, de los partidos y de los medios, es por eso que este año apostamos a que la Marcha Mundial sea la más importante las que hemos hecho. Casi todos los candidatos a presidente se han pronunciado a favor de dar el debate sobre el tema dorgas. Es bastante probable que Uruguay sea el primer país americano en legalizar el auto cultivo. Desde aquí seguimos sus trabajos con gran interes, y nos gustaría poder establece mejores contactos. Saludos, Ignacio Verrastro. nachional@hotmail.com http://www.youtube.com/user/ProlegalVideos
