I go away for 2 days, and look what happens.

So I see Nol and Peter have joined us to explain why you should actually join us in April.

Or, alternatively, you could just bang on on an online forum about how you love Cannabis and Dutch Coffeeshop Culture. Of course, when you are finally barred from the coffeeshops, you may say, well "i did my bit too", but really....did you?

I'll be there, because I care too.

In fact, it could be the one chance for me to give at least something back to the culture which has nurtured my- otherwise stigmatised and criminalised- adoration for Cannabis.

So, we've all had 30 odd golden years of freedom, who's up for giving 24 little hours back?

Like what exactly?



I wish I was going as I'd be there.

Gixxer, it's about supporting the coffeeshops, you know those places that you go to Amsterdam for.


Peter has preached the word of non violence at the gathering! & i personaly think its a good idea that people show they are not happy about this planned change,,,,,, Ok hundreds of people smoking on the streets isnt good nor do i agree with it really but sitting back & doing nothing ever done anyone any good! & what better day to do something like this anyways! ie 4-20,,,,, Its not like they wouldnt have been any stoners in town anyways! just think about it,In one years time we could ALL be banned from the coffeeshops! & the way i see it this could be our last big chance to show our disaproval at the very least!

Thanks for the good word Kingdoc.

A culture is being slowly dismantled here in the Netherlands, I for one want to show that I am opposed to it.

Come to Amsterdam for our 420 smoke out guys, it's your chance to stick two fingers up at Opstelten personally. (he wont be there by the way, he prefers the coffeeshops in the hague - less touristy)

I can only hope more coffeeshops join this initiative, because we need this protest to ring, or it might well be the last international 4:20 'celebration' in and around Dutch coffeeshops.

thanks for understanding....

At last, some of the passion I was expecting to see from page 1 of this thread, instead of the load of nimby-ing "Why should I bother getting off my arse to do anything about it?" selfish shite that seemed to kick it off; honestly I thought I'd stumbled onto some right-wing prohibitionist messageboard, not ACD!

See you there, like-minded dudes!

No it's called a range of opinions so wind in a touch please.
What a long strange trip it is.
