Strange how it was known as the place where you could smoke or buy weed at coffee shops for years before the US was anywhere close and it’s still not legal there. I suppose it’s still not federally legal in the US either though.

I think it is only ~~legal~~ tolerated specifically in cafes, and Amsterdam even have several additional restrictions on top of that.

This new trial seems to be much more regulated than current situation.
