Contrary to popular belief, it is still illegal to produce and sell marijuana in Holland. It's not always about what is on the law books. The Dutch in their infinite wisdom have decided to keep it illegal and regulate it at the same time. BRILLIANT!!
I can remember a time when I was caught with an ounce of Gold in a elementary school parking lot on a Saturday. The officer took the bag, dumped it out on the pavement in a neat pile and told me he didn't want to see me back here when he came through that same area in a couple of hours. He left, I scooped up my weed and learned a lesson about attitudes that day.
If that happened today, I would be all over your front pages, at the age of 13, branded a criminal deviant.
We don't have to change the laws. We have to change the attitudes. Laws follow attitudes, or at least they should in a Democracy.
out.
