A young man lights a marijuana cigarette during a demonstration demanding a new law on cannabis in Montevideo on May 8, 2013. Lawmakers in Uruguay are studying a bill to legalize the cultivation of marijuana and allow limited personal consumption of it -- which if passed, will have authorities controlling its quality and the amount used. With the bill, which is supported by President Jose Mujica, the government wants to end drug-related violent crime which in recent years has emerged for the first time in the South American nation.
