Good riddance, you know how annoying those people are? I live in holland and believe me outside of holiday seasons those coffeeshops are a great place to just get a little high and have a good time, kinda like you're average bar. In the holiday season on the other side they're filled with assholes who think that just because they can legally get high they can do anything to anyone everywhere.

Oh well thank you forblumping me in with the assholes sir/madam.
I'm a quiet, non violent Irish boy who was going to visit your fine city for the canals, people and weed. Okay I'll admit the cannabis is the main reason I'm going, it is for a lot of people, but it is a sense of unusual wonder and mystery that I want to go to. I'm sorry so many shitheads end up in your country but I don't see why nice people should suffer from a few asses :/

Not saying that you are one, but often the assholes outnumber the more laid back. If it were just a few than I wouldn't have a problem with it.

Anywho...banning foreigners from getting marijuana will create a black market, which will give the cops something to do. Everyone wins! Especially the cops! They get a bonus based on how many arrests, tickets, and contraband they obtain, yanno.

Well, technically that isn't true. Police Officers have a quota for those that they need to meet. Anything over that quota goes into bonus territory, though.

So, the quota is easier to fill now! Which leads to bonus money! Woo!

it,s not going to stop people from buying it through less legal means (or coffee shop owners ignoring the law).
