Amsterdam cerrara 26 cofeeshops
La pasada semana fue presentada en el Ayuntamiento de Amsterdam la versión final de la estrategia de planificación de la ciudad (Coalition Project 1012). La estrategia propone el cierro de nada menos que 26 coffeeshops en la zona del infame Barrio de la Luz Roja. Los propietarios de estos coffeeshops recibirán una licencia final de 3 años, lo que significa que en 3 a 6 años, los 26 coffeeshops tendrán que cerrar sus portas.
Conforme el Ayuntamiento de Amsterdam el gran numero de coffeeshops en la zona cría “una infraestructura que incita a la criminalidad”. En el inicio del año el Ayuntamiento ha comprado varias "ventanas de burdel" que ahora son usadas para exponer instalaciones artísticas y piezas de alta costura.
El Ayuntamiento de Amsterdam junto con la Cámara del Comercio están “a pensar en planos alternativos” para los propietarios de los coffeeshops afectados. Su actual licencia puede ser usada para abrieren un restaurante o un bar.

WTF!!! Dit gaat echt way to far! Het wordt maar eens tijd voor een kweektent. Drie jaar om het bij elkaar te krijgen, en om fatsoenlijke (!) zaadjes/stekjes te halen.Way to go... NOT! De overheid moet hier af/buiten blijven! Stelletje elitaire snobs! En dat vertegenwoordigd ons dan...

That's so fucked up! They're gonna try to close down everything that doesn't support their vision of how their slaves (us) should liveDon Jia - 2009-05-26 18:49:22
Stock up on high impact weapons now, kids, the final battle between the free and the strong - that's us - and the acidic, resentful, weak minded utterly miserable fucknuts, is nigh. Just remember, it's not the fuckin' popo, the gouvernment, the europarliament, your boss or even your fucking mom and pops who run your life. You don't need to listen to people who don't know shit telling you what's what, EVER.gaboss - 2009-05-26 22:53:45

Horrible, but I've known this has been coming (from reading about it being planned for many months now).I downloaded the PDF and didn't see a list of the coffeeshops being closed. Is such a list available now?
I just visited Amsterdam back in April and love a few couple shops and would hate to see them disappear (Route 99, Old Church, Basjoe, Popeyes). Are only big name stores staying open, or are the politicians keeping to what they claimed this was all about and only directly targeting coffeeshops they can prove have a connection to organized crime? I get the feeling, this was just a lot of hot air, and that when they get down to it, they will simply target smaller and less popular shops, or shops with a more alternative and less mainstream theme.
If a list is available, I'd love to see it.
And for those of you who aren't aware... As much as this does suck, this is nothing new. It's been going on for many years now. Many coffeeshops (I think it was like 80 something, wasn't it?) were closed because of being in a specific range of schools.
I get the feeling that the Netherlands government is really concerned with reshaping its image, and they know drug use is a big part of that (soft or not, politicians rarely take the time to know the difference, much less care).
