“Former Mexican President Vicente Fox met with cannabis advocates in San Francisco to announce the formation of an international partnership dedicated to decriminalizing and regulating pot. Fox has emerged as one of the most prominent voices pushing for marijuana legalization, publicly stating that he would grow the plant himself if he could. ‘The cost of the war is becoming unbearable,’ Fox said during a press conference announcing the alliance, noting that each day, 40 young people are killed in Mexico due to drug-related violence.”
