I don't think that will be a problem, since you care enough about shrooms in holland to respond, worldwide responses will only strengthen the position of Holland's pro-mushroom lobby.

But what we really don't need is false responses, as they weaken the petition. Unless you live in a city of 5 people, naming your city won't compromise your privacy.

Please note the reason they are attempting to pass these types of laws is to
keep idiot Americans from visiting for the sole purpose of getting stoned out
of their gourd and falling off bridges.

This petition is applicable to the 1% of active board members whom actually live
in Holland.

You'll have as much luck affecting this vote by putting a serrano up your pooper
and praying to the flying spaghetti monster.

There are a lot more Dutch people on these forums than 1% and international responses only will make a stronger point.

Well theres more than that :smile:

Since last friday over 25.000 people have signed the petition.

Also a lot of Dutch VIPs have spoken out against the ban, including people as diverse as the mayor of Amsterdam, representatives of the most prominent drug addiction  bureaus, several politicians and a standup comedian.

A statistic: in Holland which has a population of 16 million, half a million portions of shrooms are legally sold each year.

How many were actually Dutch? I don't think a non-Netherlander's signature on that petition would carry any weight.

Not really.
Let's keep in mind that the Dutch tourism is highly influenced by the freedom they adopt towards soft drugs.

Under NO circumstances should you attempt to falsify who you are or where you are from on the petition!!! The petition will NO DOUBT be scrutinized (by opponents who will look carefully at it) and all the efforts of those who legitimately have an interest and got on board to support the petition will be tainted by those actions! TRUST ME!!! I have been very involved politically and it will be hurtful NOT helpful!

Although it may carry less weight to be an American who supports the continued legal status of mushrooms, the BEST way to support our like-minded bretheren is to remind the government there in Holland that they will lose valuable tourism income from LOTS and LOTS of Americans! Politicians are VERY sensitive to harming their constituents economy! THAT (as an American) is the best way to bring pressure from so remote a locale. Trust me, they'll get the message.

Anything that reduces the number of yank tourists in Amsterdam has my full support. I hope the ban is legislated.

I find it weird that you'd find that weird.

America is a media powerhouse(video and audio at least) other english speaking countries not so much.

it's fitting that people who speak english as a second, or third language have an American accent.















back on topic, even if shrooms are changed to an illegal schedule or whatever, the apparent 'lax drug scene(historically and culturally) in the Nederlands in general leads me to believe that there would be no shroom shortage for those that seek.:shrug:

I'm not against legal shrooming, but to support fact - Shrooms can have such an effect as to cause someone to try and "fly" off a bridge. For example (I know it's not really the same thing, but) when you have uncontrollable laughter or grinning on shrooms, does that make you stupid, because you can't even control your facial muscles? No.

I would say that anyone who eats too many shrooms is uneducated on Psilocybe mushrooms (you could substitute the word dumass if you want). You should always safely dose mushrooms. They pack more power than you would think, and with enough consumption, that uncontrollable grin could easily be escalated into a "I'm a Bald Eagle" mentality.

> but to support fact - Shrooms can have such an effect as to cause someone to try and "fly" off a bridge.

So can a bad day at work. Alcohol can have such an effect as to cause someone to crash their car, yet it isn't illegal. Datura can have such an effect as to cause someone to cut off their penis, yet it isn't illegal. Nicotine is one of the most toxic substances known, yet it isn't illegal. Personal responsibility and education, not prohibition and propaganda, please.

> I would say that anyone who eats too many shrooms is uneducated on Psilocybe mushrooms

What is too many? I would say anyone that sits in rush hour traffic is uneducated on the effects of toxic fumes, yet I don't see a push to outlaw internal combustion engines.

> They pack more power than you would think

More power than I would think? Doubtful. Perhaps more power that you you think. Again, personal responsibility and education.

I want to be clear on this...by all means sign the petition if you support it, no matter what your nationality...just don't say you are from the Netherlands when you are not! Just like here, they have drivers licenses, registered voters and a mail delivery system. If you think that your misrepresentation of a Holland address will go undiscovered when scrutinized, you are WRONG, and that will erode the impoact of the 25,000 legitimate signatures.

LET the response be world-wide! Nothing wrong with that!

It is a fact that every year a million people in the world die by suicide. Thats one in every six thousand people. I don't think she "flew" off a bridge but that this was a suicide.
Tragic, but unavoidable.

I wasn't supporting illegalizing shrooms. I was only saying that eating shrooms, and jumping off a bridge doesn't neccessarily mean that person was stupid, just ignorant of the effects that shrooms produce. If they were legal, more people would have a shroom education.

And that's the only point I was trying to make.

No.
It's the individual's responsibility to instruct himself regarding the effects of mushrooms, nobody should be obliged to do that, even if they were legal.
