Nov. 11, 2008 — A national ban on the sale of fresh hallucinogenic ‘magic’ mushrooms will take effect in the Netherlands on December 1, 2008. In dried form those mushrooms already were banned under Dutch Opiate Laws.
The ban was first proposed in October 2007, after as series of high-profile deaths and injuries linked to magic mushroom trips.
In 2006, nine out of ten incidences in which ’shrooms’ played a role involved tourists — many of whom had apparently not followed advice for proper use as handed out by the so-called ’smart shops.’ The vast majority of these incidences took place in Amsterdam.
When they buy mushrooms, consumers are instructed in their proper use. Among other things they are told not to use the mushrooms in combination with other drugs or with alcohol.
Magic mushrooms in Amsterdam
Health minister Ab Klink had urged the Dutch Lower House to ban the mushrooms after a 17-year-old French girl committed suicide by jumping from a bridge into busy traffic. It was later stated that the girl, not old enough to legally enter a smart shop herself, had asked a friend to buy her some mushrooms.
sounds like utter bullshit to me :( bit over week before cc5

What the fuck is the point in taking drugs or shrooms anyway?
also going into a full bar while on shrooms is not very good idea, had to try it anyway :D
it is hilarioius when he talks about it...he had so much panic and doubts about life/time/logi thinking..really weird :D
nice playing under influence on cc5 :d losing was never so much of fun! ;>
afaik some herbs are allowed to be exported in finland but what about shrooms?
I'm just sad that I only got the chance to do shrooms once, don't think I'm mentally ready for another one before 1 dec. Oh well, on to LSD & DMT & Ketamine then :PP
And idd, I think I would love LSD, didn't have that much visuals on shrooms, but I loved the ones I did have. Can't wait to see what my mind is capable of ;)
Anyway have fun with it then! (K)
now ban alcohol, medicine, etc and other shit you can overdose and die from
But they still got the best weed in Europa.
And if u really want them i dont think its to hard to get em. but why go to the Netherlands if they are illegal its easier to get em at home you will have to take the risk to face the law anyway. =(
(not a shroom user)
Yeah i herd that its not dangerous but do u have any source on that?
(Heroin was first introduced as a troth medicine and for headaches and by then "it wasn't dangerous at all".)
Plus that u should not trust some random guy at the internet(including me)
After all i live in Sweden if u use any drog besides tobacco, and alcohol and get busted u are gonna get socially freezed out from family and "normal"(no drog using) friends after all the propaganda they teach you at school and generally hear in media.
And Sweden have one of the hardest laws on drogs in Europa.
science+politics=fail
No they aren't really that bad. but the social climate about drogs is worse then the police.
but if someone proves that shrooms effect the health on the person it self and a 3rd party person really bad(more then the legal drugs) it should be out lawed. and also the opposite if a new drog on the market isnt proved that its "healthy"(if a drog can be healthy) it should not be allowed.
all other illegal drugs aren't "cool"
