Purchase in Advance

It was reported “yesterday”:http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20070911/od_afp/netherlandsdrugslaws_070911180903;_ylt=Aqw4RBCWcKr6BgXMz_BabEqs0NUE that Mayor Job Cohen of Amsterdam is pushing for a three-day wait period for purchasing ‘shrooms in his drug-addled city.

The mayor’s proposal is in reaction to an apparent “128 ambulance calls”:http://www.dutchnews.nl/news/archives/2007/06/mushroomrelated_incidents_rise.php that dealt with ‘shroom-enabled accidents last year. Thus, Cohen believes the wait period will filter out the less responsible impulse buyers (i.e. dumbass tourists) so only the seasoned psilocybin veggie lovers will have all the fun.

What do you think?

    As if tourists in our little town can wait that long. They want it and they want it now! (not only Jewish tourists…). Though paddo’s, as they call them here, are kosher, people who take them start feeling like Jesus Christ and think that they can walk o
