Millions of 'illegal' mushroom spores spread in Holland

Last week Legalize!, in cooperation with TV host Filemon and author Hans Plomp, protested against a proposed ban on 168 types of psychoactive mushrooms. They planted mushrooms in the gardens of Dutch celebrities Henk Westbroek (musician, radio host) and Theo Maassen (comedian, see image), handed out mushrooms to politicians at The Binnenhof in The Hague, and using water guns they spread millions of spores on lawns and parks. They then took the spreading of spores to another level by taking the water guns up in the sky with a hot air balloon (see pictures here or here).

Let's hope for a good harvest this autumn!

The article says 'proposed ban' - I thought it went past that to approved ban.

Can someone explain in detail what is and is not banned?
I appreciate it.

Peace

It is approved, but not official yet.
It will be official soon (this week).
Some people still hope...

So does this mean that only spores will be legal - or does that officially close the selling of spores? -

Peace

Soundtrack meanwhile spraying spores could be:

I think this is a brilliant protest, that shows how useless this ban is. I completely agree with it and I like the creative ideas they came up with to show there (our!) disagreement!

Yo Dezza, great choice.....But try this: Mudvayne : " Everything & Nothing " . Keep it real, Dutchman!

Good action. if they forbid our mushrooms they loose the option of informing the custumors about the species that can be ingested and those that are really toxic, people find there own ways but some ways will create real dangerous and more deadly situations. I think every drug or herb or whatever should be legal because it's all a matter of taste, something that I find good for me may not be same for my neighbour. so all those politicians who are interupting our social, religious and private activeties should fuck off and get a life.
