In The Netherlands, drugs is meassured in two main categories: hard drugs and soft drugs.

The soft drugs are; Marijuana, hashies and psychedelic mushrooms.
These are somewhat 'legal. They're available in larger cities.
Mushrooms are available in;
Smartshops. These Smartshops are selling all kinds of legal (natural or herbal) substances.
And Marijuana is available in; Coffeeshops.
For both shops the same rule goes as with alcohol selling; not for people under the age of 18.

But now there's a new law against the use, selling and growing of psychedelic mushrooms.
The problems arise, namely: These mushrooms also grow naturally in...nature. Such as in a forest and peoples garden.
The main question now is: how to control and oversee these psychedelic mushrooms?

Note; In this video they talk about 'Paddos'. This is a term used for all psychedelic-mushrooms.
The translation of the word 'Paddos' in this video is: mushrooms.

These musrooms were legal. But are now made illegal due to some accidents with tourists whom took these musrooms (along with a mix of alcohol and other substances).

No accidents of Dutch people using psychelic mushrooms are reported in history.

Ask yourself; Why they start to prohibiting this natural fungus?
If the real reason was truly because of accidents; then they also have to start a campaign against alcohol.

Everybody knows that alcohol causes a lot of accidents every year.

While natural elements such as; mushrooms and Marijuana makes people more peacefull...The opposite is widely available; alcohol.

We do not propagade any use of dugs nor alcohol. We just like to show you the contraversies in government rules and restrictions.

It's business as usual. Think about the many alcoholic drinks targeted for younger people. Drinks such as; Breezers.

Last but not least; In Holland the government receives tax money from alcohol and tobacco income. They call this; Accijns belasting.

This is not the case with mushrooms and Marijuana. But the business is huge. Billions of Euro's every year.

So the bottom line is:
Substances without tax income are labelled 'bad'.

And substances with tax income are widely available.

  • It's not because of the tourists. if it was because of the accidents with touristst, then alcohol should be prohibited too.

    It's the lack of information. Do you hear about mushroom accidents of tourists in Asian countries (Thailand etc) ?

    And if you think the laws in ths video are heavy... Check out part 2 (vid response)

  • Your battle is not with the police. Your battle is with the law makers and politicians.

  • i always hated the excuse of ppl will misuse the drug so it has to be illegal.....if ppl are misusing the drug then it is simply EDUCATION that is needed, not putting ppl in cages for using it.

  • I'm tripping on shrooms

    I don't speak german

    But somehow I understood every part of this

  • where is this 'smartshop' located?

  • alchohol causes violence, weed just makes u chill, which one should be banned? not weed cos it keeps the peace and makes u appreciate art and music and the governments would make lots of cash if they made it available to buy in the convenience stores.., so why don't they just accept it. its the opposite way round and this is just daft.........

  • @MasMowChannel

    It's not about a accident for it being made illegal. Its because Europe is USA's puppet and holland is europes puppet. And we all want others to drink themselves to death, drink brainkilling mercury and fluoride in our water supplies, but not take psilocybin/psilocine. Because thats nature and human friendly. The politicians and the people pulling the cords dont want that.

    Because they want us to be slaves instead of enlightened humans eager to explore their mind.

  • Religious persecution is wrong. My religion should not make me a criminal: Church of the Sacred Mushroom

  • People misuse alcohol all the time but we never take that away...If people cause harm while on mushrooms then put them in jail for the harm they caused just like it they were drunk off their ass.

  • Fuck the law we'll do what we want anyway.

  • 0:45 !

  • Fuck that Klink guy!!! Sounds like an alien name
