Dutch government seeks to close cannabis 'grow shops'
    #8111639 -

http://www.nzherald.co.nz/section/2/story.cfm?c_id=2&objectid=10496699

Shops selling cannabis seeds and specialist equipment for cultivating marijuana plants face closure under proposed changes to Dutch drugs laws.

Justice Minister Ernst Hirsch Ballin told parliament he would amend laws to ban the sale of everything that "facilitates the production of cannabis", news agency ANP reported on Thursday.

A majority of lawmakers said in November they supported such a move.

So-called "grow shops" often offer clients full advice on how to grow marijuana at home, an activity illegal in the Netherlands, Christian Democrat lawmakers have said.

Soft drugs are officially banned in the Netherlands but under a policy of tolerance, buyers are allowed to have less than 5g of cannabis in their possession.

In recent years the country has sought to shed its "anything goes" image and has tightened laws on drug use and prostitution.

I guess producing marijuana is so much different than growing tomatoes or any other plant.

"Psychedelics are illegal not because a loving government is concerned that you may jump out of a third story window, psychedelics are illegal because they dissolve opinion structures and culturally lay down models of behavior and information processes. They open you up to the possibility that everything you know is wrong, and government and society spend a lot of money educating you into being a loyal worker, consumer, debt payer and citizen."

Doesn't matter really. Who gives a fuck about what politicians think anyway?
