No law has passed that tourists wont be able to by weed in amsterdamHe was told this by the mayor of Tilburg - do you think that its some sort of practical joke or something? Laws change in countries all the time - there's nothing particularly surprising about it. No offense, but you're coming across as one of these conspiracy theorists who rant on about the kennedy assasination / alien landings etc. The point is, that unless you actually have evidence to back up what you say, you end up coming across as a crank. And as I already pointed out, you don't have ANY evidence at all. So you're simply rumour mongering and making the situation worse than it already is. This wouldn't matter so much, perhaps, but I would imagine that its infuriating for people like N, who actually work in this industry, understand this situation better than you and I ever will and are worried about losing his livlihood. This situation doesn't matter to you at all, really, but it does matter to him, so maybe show some respect and actually read what he said in the last few posts...
You do not have any evidence that dam will not serve tourists weed as of Jan 2013 because there is none. It is proposed, and things get proposed all the time.
The evidence i have is in the law and the fact that it has not changed affecting Amsterdam!
