I'm coming into Cartegena the 28th and staying until Sept 2nd or 3rd. Looking for a wingman who's going to be in town and wants to check out the scene. PM me if interested.

The following link from the same source tells that 'not paying for services rendered is considered to be discriminatory'.

Posts: 8Sorry, just posted this without any context or translation.
Seems like they are proposing a law to fine those who solicit prostitutes. Not a law yet, just proposed by Congress. Not sure how long these things take to get considered or probability of this passing, but saw it on my feed and thought I would share.

Posts: 9Thank you very much for the information. Had I been thinking, I would have known to Google it myself. I guess it wasn't very smart of me.
It's nearly impossible in this hobby to completely avoid the drug culture, even if you are not a user. Drug use is so prevalent among the chicas, eventually you will be exposed. While knowing the law isn't going to do you a damn bit of good with a cop determined to be a prick, it is at least smart to know what you are exposing yourself to. The more accurate information you have, allows you to make smarter decisions. Thanks again for the information.

They do anything possible to discourage it, if not formally forbid it.
Still people asking. Forget it.

However, I recognize that each of us is subject to different treatment from the police. I might be able to smoke a joint while standing next to the police and they may say nothing. Another person may just walk by and get searched and harassed for nothing. This is true in every country. Whether or not you are breaking the law is not part of the process.

A law could pass tomorrow decriminalising all drugs in Colombia and shakedowns will still happen.
I have been traveling to Colombia four to five times a year for the last couple of years. You still think it's "urban legend" then head down and smoke some mj in front of police.

Drug use is prohibited, but it has been decriminalized.
Legal medical marijuana industry is growing in Colombia.
So the question remains, what will happen if the cops see you smoking a joint. I've seen young locals smoke openly in the park, with cops nearby. But we are tourist, so we can be treated differently, but I have no experience / first hand knowledge of this question.
What happens if a cop catches you with coke in your pocket? I have no idea. I've seen cops randomly search young locals in the city. Not sure if they are searching for weapons and / or drugs. I haven't been stopped and searched by cops yet. My guess is either because I look like a tourist or just luck of the draw.
