    The Dutch drugs policy is a huge problem. We became a narco state. Every drugs that’s exists in the world is everywhere you go over here for sell. And in the weed in Netherlands there’s a lot of chemicals in the weed like hairspray and chemicals to get it stronger. The drug related gun violence is getting worse with the day. And the production of drugs is sky high compared with the rest of Europe. I’m afraid what we’re waiting for in the future.

  9. West 11 on April 13, 2022 at 6:19 pm

    Uk needs to wake up, people are fed up with bad quality and dodgy dealers. Legalize it and tax it, simple!

    Woahh



  14. XIPHIASCDXX on April 13, 2022 at 6:25 pm

    Amsterdam is about to limit weed sales to locals only… Because it’s Europe and Europeans hate freedom.

    So, you’re all welcome to smoke here in the US where the quality and prices are better anyway. Plus nobody will hassle you for being a tourist…



  15. Martin on April 13, 2022 at 6:29 pm

    Really big companies producing cannabis. Ehm ehm, Sinaloa/Guadalajara cartel, ehm ehm



  16. Mansour Aloufi on April 13, 2022 at 6:30 pm

  17. Gorgon on April 13, 2022 at 6:31 pm

    Not really, American weed is filled with pesticide.



  18. Bram van Uden on April 13, 2022 at 6:33 pm

    Looks at those Americans again thinking they are the best, clowns.



  19. masterv03 on April 13, 2022 at 6:34 pm

  20. Compton on April 13, 2022 at 6:35 pm

  25. Timothy Abraham on April 13, 2022 at 6:42 pm

    Take notes America this is a developed nation.



  26. Mathias List on April 13, 2022 at 6:43 pm

    I would not smoke illegal weed. It is extremely stupid to punish small homegrowers and on the other hand supporting the "mafia" or illegal producers.



  27. Ντένη Μαρκορά on April 13, 2022 at 6:44 pm

    Say the truth : the new conservative government is trying to ban cannabis



  28. ronburgindee on April 13, 2022 at 6:46 pm

    The weed in the dam is garbage compared to the us



  29. Kent Beery on April 13, 2022 at 6:46 pm

  30. Tacone87 on April 13, 2022 at 6:47 pm

    “5 grams is enough for one person” who else choked on their smoke laughing when he said that?😂



  31. Sxrious on April 13, 2022 at 6:48 pm

    Typical american patriotic behaviour😂😂



  32. Levana Vered on April 13, 2022 at 6:51 pm

    Part of the ai program trying to dumb people down so (they: those who’re writing it) can rule the world.

    People in Europe and the UK wouldn’t rather spend 400+ quid on flights to America when you can get a return flight for 100 quid or a bloody train 😂😂

    Long ago, in 2019, I was in Amsterdam, trying to smoke Sativa and Indica grass and a hybrid, I was great, so I calm down and smile. I didn’t feel sick and I didn’t have any pain. This zero. I eat vitamins for fruits and vegetables every day. I was smoking weed of sativa for energy and indica for tired and sleep.
