Attack of the Show on Amsterdam Pot Crackdown

December 9th, 2008 by Alex

If you’ve been reading tFS this month, you’ve seen quite a few updates on the regression of Holland’s liberal institutions.

Attack of the Show has also done some fine reporting on the subject, except they’re stocked with a full production studio and a witty host.

That probably explains why Dan Bernath, of the Marijuana Policy Project, came on the show to talk about the evolution (and future) of the political landscape affecting Amsterdam’s infamous coffee shops and brothels.

Check out the video above, and if you like TV shows that are funny and have a tech twist, start watching AOTS.

    Don’t worry guys, it’s not going to happen :) maybe a few will close down, but do you know how much shops we have!? they’re fucking everywhere!
    This is the case; some mayors of small towns think that the problems they have in those towns are because they have a few coffeeshops. of course this is not true, they have not investigated that at all, but they just think ‘hey, someone’s been robbed, that MUST be because there’s a coffeeshop at the other side of the village!’. Right.
    But of course there’s the mayor of Amsterdam, Job Cohen, who is brilliant. He absolutely hates the plan to ban coffeeshops and stuff, so as long as he’s alive, nothing bad will happen :)

    So, don’t worry, just keep coming to Amsterdam!

    Life is so much better over here :)

    Kisses,

    Anouk from Amsterdam
