How can people outside the Netherlands argue against legalization claiming that cannabis is this bad to you and that bad to society, when the country of Netherlands and its people do so well? Many people believe the Netherlands is a very bad place with much crime because of cannabis being legal. Supposedly if you smoke it you get violent, angry, more aggressive and are likely to go rob a convenient store or anything and shoot the guy/lady at the counter with a gun. After you smoke that last piece of cannabis you feel guilty and suddenly want more cannabis. Supposedly. Wow, I swear that with every word of your last post my chin fell deeper and deeper I'm only going to refute this for the reader; not for you, lighted, cause I think you know better... In another discussion I told Rei Murasame that life over here can be pretty 'fluffy' in the sense that we don't have gang wars, drive-by-shootings, etc. In Europe you really don't need to be afraid of people getting crazy with guns (except for at school now and then). The general crime rate is of course different in each country, but the Netherlands is one of the countries with the lowest crime rate, while the Dutch people are relatively content (seen from the p.o.v. of an immigrant). To take Amsterdam into the equation is like saying that NYC is representative for the whole of the United States, but it remains a fact that Amsterdam is the capital, and therefore counts. too. If you have ever been in this town, you'll know what I'm talking about. Apart from the crime factor, cannabis does not get you violent, angry, more aggressive and you're not more likely to rob a convenient store and anything and shoot the guy/lady at the counter with a gun In fact, it does exactly the opposite. It will help you feel relaxed, content, your aggressions disappear and (racing) thoughts come to life.. sometimes thoughts you have never thought before. You're not likely to rob a convenient store, but it may well happen that you storm it in the desperate search for something to keep you from dying due to cotton mouth (very high victim rate amongst stoners) Oh, and yeah, how can I shoot somebody if I don't have access to guns... ...so.... Myth busted. Busted. BUSTED
