The reason a question about "good cocktail bars in Amsterdam" doesn't raise any eyebrows is because alcohol is a socially-accepted drug.>

same should be with coffeeshops - they are in effect legal in Amsterdam so why censor that - big change from old regime when such postings were not removed a la Fehrenheit 451.

Yes.
But when gets censored several times for asking about weed one should understand that one should refrain from posting time and again about it.
I guess Fodors being run by US is following US rules not Dutch ones.
I guess weed is still illegal in the US.
But ok. Where can I legally get high in the best coffe shop ?
No problem ref legality no prob regarding health.
I should tell that to my friends who had their kids taken to hospital for having 'décompensation psychotique' fillowing smoking weed.
Never heard of such after cocktails.
But again ok.

And where can I run naked under the moon yelling that I love Trump ?

"No problem ref legality no prob regarding health.

And you've never heard of people going to rehab or getting involved in a car accident due to alcohol abuse?
Whatever point you're trying to make, Whathello, it failed to come across.

I guess weed is still illegal in the US.>

Not for me - medical pot user certified by my state. Many states have now and several have legalized it.

<I should tell that to my friends who had their kids taken to hospital for having 'décompensation psychotique' fillowing smoking weed.>

Weed don't cause that, at least not smoking it (ingestation of edibles "medibles in my state" could cause it but not smoking as the body has a tolerance of how much can be absorped via lungs)- no doubt IMO there was a psychotic problem to begin with and if they were already on anti-psychotic meds it could cause problems.

But normally mentally balanced folks can smoke all the weed they want without ending up in psych ward - such primitive knee-jerk thoughts from you!

And yes by any comparison booze kills and causes more health problems than pot as does eating fattening foods to excess.

Yep.
I guess the guys werent well balanced. Nevertheless they both spent 45 days locked. Loacked? And none took anything else than weed. Marihuana. Sheet in French. Joint. Petard. I'll tell their parents they were probably mentally weak they'll love it.

I don't see where my being primitive knee jerk derives from seeing two young boys going nuts from smoking weed.

I guess alcohol kills more slowly than drugs. But I am not yet an alkie and I have never smoked. My lungs are unpolluted.

So what beach can I run naked with a skin of wolf and yelling that I like Erdogan ?

you do not know anyone else who has smoked weed who did not have those reactions?

millions have and did not.

some folk may be susceptible to psychosis following pot but very very few IME - talk about throwing the baby out with the bathwater!

How did Dresden go?

PalenQ, I loved Dresden. I'm glad I took your advice. But you really need two days to do it justice.

And I saw Saxon Switzerland from the train. Such a beautiful area. Hoping I can include it in future visits.
