i keep reading people saying good luck with losing all that tourist money...well they will have a new source of income because they will start inforcing their laws and arresting and fineing people..
people either dont realize or just dont know, but marijuana is and has alwasy been illegal in the amsterdam. the police and the government just tolerated the use as long as you wernt walking down the streets smoking blunts..now that they are banning the use to all noncitizens they will most likely start cracking down and handing out fines or arrests and you know what that means..money out of out pockets cause they wilol tell you pay the 500$ fine or spend 30days in jail like they do in mexico
no matter what law you break in mexico, short of murder, they just say you pay a fine right now or you can sit in jail for 30days and well no one wantes to go to a mixican jail so they pay whatever amount they are told and move on..id be willing to bet the netherlands will do the same..they catch forigners with weed and take you to jail and say pay a "$X" amount or sit in jail for "X"amount of days...
so what are you gonna do? hire a lawyer to fight your case in a land 8000miles from home, with no clue how long it will; take or how much money it will cost you? or pay some fine and be out in 45minutes?...so now you where planning on spending 150$ on weed while you wher there and not only did you spend that money you now have to pay maybe 2or3times that to stay out of jail
im sure they will lose lots of money because they cant sell to tourists but they will still be raking it in with the fines they collect by busting the tourists who still go there to smoke...but that will only be shortlived cause if they start fining people and shit like that, of course the intraworld would find out almost instanty and people will then finally stop going if they start handing out fines..sure prostitution is still legal but why travel half way around the world for pussy if you can go to vegas where its legal and do the same shit with just as much if not more drugs, no 10hour flight needed, no messed up sleeping schedule cause you took a ocuple xanax and slept the whole flight butwhen you got there its 10at night and your wired and so much more
