Saving Shrooms

The Dutch government have decided to ban shroom sales. But at least one hundred people gathered to save them Saturday last carrying colourful shroomie messages "When will they ban bread?" and "Boss of your own brain", they thus vowed to go on doing whatever it is they do to their brain.

Amongst marchers were included the weighty psychedelic Arno Adelaars who criticised foreign tourists for getting pissed up on beer, gawking at prostitutes, stuffing their faces with hash cake & then thinking that's the time for a dose of psilicybin. Quite right. I agree. Rather than banning the shrooms they should ban the tourists.

about 100 people attend the Shroom march Amsterdam Sat. last

People in Ireland of course saw Mary Harney ban their shrooms in 2006 as reported here

Hasn't stopped them though has it?

I'm lending this all my cognitive liberty support. Save the Shroom! & thus I will append updates. Meanwhile in a small indication of how silly this all is, later last Saturday night police raided an after-party in northern Amsterdam arresting 50 & taking a haul of cocaine & other alkaloids. Not a single spore of magic dust just the real nasty stuff. Get yer priorities right!
