Yes!! You are so right Meltem !!! When im on holiday and people find out im from Holland, the first things thy ask are if i live in Amsterdam and if i carry any drugs with me and if so, if they can see !!!

I wish i didn't feel like i had to wish for anything.

I wish people wouldn't loose the endless ability to dream and fantasize that children have. Children's whose eyes are not yet poisoned by the cruelty of the world.

Maybe i even wish i could take that cruelty away.

Have you actually ever watched porn? Then you wouldn't say this because there is DEFINITELY a HUGE difference between soft porn and hard porn! The last one really just makes me sick.

The same is for soft drugs and for hard drugs. You are not gonna say that someone who's on a diet has anorexia. You use a term that defines in what state something is.

And the thing you say about using words to hide things, that is not about being European or Western. This is something politicians do. And not just politician in Europe. They do it in Turkey too and in any place of the world.

Can you explain the R in yapardin, deli?

I think the legalisation of softdrugs in Holland is something VERY good.

In the past, many people were killed, prostitutes were not only sexually abused but also in order to get soft drugs from, many crimes were committed, especially in Amsterdam. It's been stated that the legalisation of softdrugs in Holland has prevented many crimes. And the chances of having huge hard-drugs going on, is smaller, because people stick to softdrugs: its safer and cheaper, so why risk for the hard-drugs?

I'm not saying the situation in Amsterdam is perfect nowadays. They are even discussing the Red Light District now. And still crimes are committed, but that's in every big city and im afraid this human nature wont change. All i know that the legalisation of softdrugs has turned out to be quite fine for Holland. I think that's partly because we are a small country so we can keep it in control.

Neither I'm saying softdrugs are good. I don't smoke or use any kind of drugs, im no alcoholic. I just love my glass of wine for dinner and my baileys in my coffee, thats it. But i think by forbidding something, you make it more attractive for young people. If you force people into something, they will stronger try to reject this, tho if you wouldnt force them, they would not reject so strongly.

Hahaha.

Wow cigarettes are really expensive in UK! And then here we're complaining that they are like 4-5 EUROS, not Pounds muhahaha.

Yeah i think making it expensive and making them feel slightly 'uncomfortable' is a good way. Better is to start at youth and at primary schools with information how bad it is. You can influence young kids but you won't be able to stop the older generation that already smokes nowadays i think.

In holland now they write 'Smoking is deadly' and other slogans that say the bad risks of smoking on the packages (ive seen this in france too, i think its something EU?)but i really doubt if it helps.. because now they sell special covers for your package so that you don't have to see it hahaha
