Pedro, seriously, it is illegal here and they do have a zero tolerance policy on it. It is not like back at home where you get caught with a joint and get probation, you get thrown in jail no questions asked, probably won't be able to see your Mom, and deported along with your family. I would give anything to be able to smoke here, it would make living here a lot easier to tolerate, but the fact is, you are playing with your life if you get caught doing it here. These people are not joking about the consequences. Hope that also sheds some light on it for you.
