| "It's the world upside down: In other countries they look for the marijuana in the cigarette. Here they look for the cigarette in the marijuana," said Jason den Enting, manager of the Dampkring coffee shop. |
No, in other countries you are not allowed to smoke anything!

| The health minister, Ab Klink, said the law would stay, arguing that as well as helping to improve people's health it might help to stamp out idleness. "Consumers who spend the whole day hanging out in coffee shops will find other things to do," he said. |
Sorry, does he mean other places to be idle?

| "I think it is good that they have started today in the summer because that way everybody can get used to it, so that come winter everybody will have grown used to not smoking," said Willem Klaas, a smoker from Amsterdam. |
It's all well planned, smokers are stupid.

| The Dutch "tolerance" policy recognizes that some people will smoke pot regardless of laws, so it might as well happen in an orderly way. Critics complain this encourages substance abuse. |
how far do we go, children's sweet shops encourage sugar abuse. When will they look at what cause's abuse?

"The rules are being set to pester us out of business one by one, slowly but surely," said Richard van Velthoven, manager at The Greenhouse, who said he feared being shut down for tobacco violations.
"I've taken the cigarette machines out, I'm putting coltsfoot on the tables, I've bought extra vaporizers, the staff is watching out — what more can I do?" he said.

Strip search all customers when entering the building, any signs of tobacco lock them up in the basement for 20years and give them the option of paying a large fine to get out and never return, the fine must account to the value of a lifetime of regular custom or everything they have. That's what they do in Dubai.

| The Dutch government, currently led by a conservative coalition with a religious bent, is slowly squeezing back the number of coffee shops by not renewing licenses when shops close. |
It's make you so angry, but if you get angry, they will squeeze you and if you scream. Iit's the Spanish inquisition or the dunking chair all over again.

| Growers are arrested, leaving coffee shop owners struggling to obtain their main product. |
They will win, we let them.
[quote]“They're having to smoke pure weed now and they're not used to it,” Frank, working behind the counter, said. “That's why there's all this coughing. It's going to be quite tricky.”
| Quote: |
It's a weird world, after coughing their lung up they might want to go and do something interesting instead of being idle.

Meanwhile, the Central Statistical Bureau recently found that the number of smokers in the Netherlands has dropped by nearly 100,000 since 2000, with less than a quarter of Dutch still enjoying a cigarette.

more than cannabis users. what's the ban cannabis or tobacco.
Lies and bullshit are what we are feed on. This is not life, this is slavery. I wish I didn't start smoking, I could have bought a fast car and worked instead I sit here with nothing and winge.

It's "Christian logic" David. It's no use trying to make any sense out of it, it doesn't have any sense or logic. It's based on the same kind of intellectual thought that also makes them believe that zombies exist and can walk on water, that the earth is only 6000 years old and all the other nonsense written in their brainwash manual and which they accept as fact without questioning.
In my book, people who subscribe to irrational believe systems are by default not fit for public office, those people are a potential danger to their surroundings, but that's just me.

Oh, don't worry about me, I'm just in pain and self pity.
Life without cannabis is going to be hard. I now live in a constant mental prison where life has no logic, problem is without cannabis I can't understand why there's no logic. |
