The Dutch government sticks to the ban on Magic Mushrooms
Magic Mushroom by Jonathan Gill. Licence under the Creative Commons 2.0 Attribute
It became clear today that the Dutch government is continuing the ban on magic mushrooms. Ths despite the wish of the left wing parties to lift it. (PvdA, D66, GroenLinks)
Today there was a debate in Dutch Parliament analyzing the effectiveness of the mushroom ban. Minister of Health, Ab Klink and Minister of Justice, Hirsch Ballin come to the conclusion that the ban is a success, when considering the very few magic mushroom related incidents this year.
Between December 2008 and March 2009, just eight times the Ambulance services were called upon to assist in these incidents. The same period a year before this was forty-nine times.
The left wing parties state that it is not the magic mushrooms where the problem lies, but it is the young tourists that get into trouble when combining the magic mushrooms with alcohol and/or other drugs. Because of this, the Dutch population, who almost never need medical attention after the (ab)use, are the victims of this new law.
However, for the people who still care to trip on pcilocybin there is good news. The government is not pursuing a ban on psychomimatic Psilocybe strained truffles or sclerotia. Also the grow kits for all magic mushrooms remain to be legally sold and possessed for small scale home use.
We continue to sell one of the most beautiful products that nature has to offer.
