Please read the report carefully.. it's for tobacco, not for weed. READ first before spouting shit.

Fuck that,I'm 14 and have smoked ganja every now and then for about a year and tbh it's about as harmful as eating at kfc. No one dies from it but tobbaco induces more deaths than any other substance in the world combined.if they outlaw it fully then they might aswell illegalise alcohol,fags and fat food.They will never outlaw tobbaco because for alot of 3rd world countries it is the sole income and if made illegal it would basically kill the country.tobbaco has been associated with many world tragedies such as the slave trade.was tobbaco helpful then? We should be free to have soft UNHARMFUL recreational drugs. Here is a fact.. The lethL dose of cannabis is 1500 pounds in weight. Good luck dying cause they only sell 5 grams at once. And with the economic crisis in hand ATM we could easily turn Round the deficit by legalising cannabis today.

i think it is just stupid, if you applied for the job in a coffee shop then you would know that there will be people smoking in there. if not then you just a bit slow. dont ban smoking just say that people should read the job description first.

How on earth can you make an ordinary PLANT illegal???????

Why doesnt America just ban ciggaretes too?? I will tell you why they wont, coz they are making so much money off the people in the world.

All i can say is that this is very unfair for the people that dont smoke tobbacco.

One love man!

I went to a.dam a couple of years ago before this ban started and my own guess is it wont change a thing.The sensible,more intelligent dutch coffee shop owners will just say go outside to smoke a cigarette but fine to smoke weed inside.Dont believe the hype.As if they will ever outlaw weed in amsterdam???????? You got to be a fool to believe it.

Read before reacting people!

The article clearly states: "Coffee shop owners believe the laws will not effect their business as it applies to tobacco and Cannabis can be smoked pure."

Perhaps the delineation would be more clear if written: "Coffee shop owners believe the laws will not effect their business as it applies to tobacco only. Cannabis may still be smoked if pure (i.e. not mixed with tobacco)."

While true that those that smoke "normal" cigarettes will typically mix the two, because I am told they inhale more deeply(?), I would assume they can adjust their inhalation while on premises.
