A friend last night asked me "you hear about whats happening to amsterdam?" and i thought maybe something about cannabis cup or somethin... but he told me it was becoming ILLEGALIZED after spring break of 08. anybody know whats up with that?? im planning my trip asap if this is the case..
I wouldnt just automatically believe this. That is one of their main tourist attractions :thumbsup: (In most cases not THE main, just one)
pot has always been illegal in Holland, it just isn't enforced, nobody cared ... things change ... :jointsmile:
yesterday my friend told me gullible wasn't in the dictionary. I can't believe they wouldn't include that word...its preposterous!

I refuse to believe it. Cannabis is illegal in the Netherlands due to their obligations to the international treaties, they can't legalize it if they wanted to. So they decriminalized possesion of up to 5 grams. They may be reducing the number of coffeeshops but they''re not irradicating them all together. They're there to stay, imo.
reefer rougue knows his shiznit there,
the thing they was thinking of doin was if you are not a citizen of amsterdam and you are caught smoking cannabis they WILL inforce the law apon you, but like drag commented on i just cant see them stopping theyre most renowned tourism pulls.
I Dont think this is true... why would they just suddenly make it illegal???

Because some Nederlanders believe it brings in the wrong kind of tourist.
