How, if they’re all playing at the same game? Like, what would be the point, if you get them to start busting others for it, they’ll eventually bust you too…
Eh, not legally. It’s illegal but condoned (up to 5 gram, for personal use only). Meaning they won’t arrest or prosecute you for it, but technically you are still beaking the law. I guess in theory some DA could add it along with other charges. But since we don’t have a US-style kangaroo court system, this never happens.
A lot of DA’s in the US trump up charges and add anything they can think of, often in order to scare the defendant into settling out of court. I believe some 97% of cases in the US are settled out of court. That doesn’t happen over here.
Weed isn’t legal in The Netherlands, the sale of weed is only condoned. Meaning the coffee shops who sell weed cant legally purchase it.
As far as the laws concerned it magically appears.
There are bow trials being done with legally grown weed. Meaning it’s a government run weed farm.
can people not use that to take each other’s shops down?

so they illegally purchase it and then sell illegal goods, legally?

OK. Thank you for explaining.
