Nope. Not enough under EU law.

Nope. The Polish government cannot revoke the citizenship of a Polish citizen.
Indeed. And if the OP is likely to buy something, better he gets sensible pointers than falls in with the wrong people.

sensible pointers
Telling him to go to Czech were the laws are not so stiff is not a sensible pointer, it is an encouragement to use illegal drugs.
Telling him to stay away from drugs period is a sensible pointer.
Telling him to stay away from drugs
Ultimately that's a decision for him. I would never want to change anyone's mind either way.

I know you wouldn't because you have no morals.
I on the other hand I would do all I could to guide a younger person to the right road of life to keep him safe and out of trouble.

no morals.
Drugs have no morals, either positive or negative. People use them anyway - if they do that, better they buy safely and avoid judicial persecution.

Correct, drugs have no morals and neither do you.
Does that mean it's your job to encourage them to break the law ?
People use them anyway

Certainly more than you will ever have. Some of us don't feel the need to preach.

There you go again, assuming that objectivity is 'encouragement'.

Only in your dreams jon.
I think we are done here as the conclusion has been reached.
You support the use of illegal drugs and I do not.
I stand for everything that you stand against and visa versa.
Guess we will have to wait for judgment day to find out who was right and who was wrong.
You support the use of illegal drugs and I do not
You were extolling the use of marijuana a while ago.
You support
Or simply acknowledge that some people will use them, that criminalisation hasn't worked, and that if someone wants to buy something, better they don't fall into harm's way in the process.

It's not a crime in Poland to discuss the drug laws in different countries.
Again, stop trying to project American hyper-sensitivity onto Europeans.
You were extolling the use of marijuana a while ago.
I remember it well. His knowledge of the drug is certainly far beyond the average lay person.

Agree with all of this, but I do have to wonder at people who go to different countries looking to buy drugs, especially if it's not just a bit of weed. Just asking for trouble really, and worst case scenario, that person's banged up abroad.

Yes, it's potentially very risky. There are certainly undercover police in nightclubs in some places and although Poland is quite laissez-faire in some ways, he could be very unlucky.

Criminalization for bank robber hasn't worked either so simply acknowledge that some people will do it is your rational.
My rational is that I am not going to suggest that bank robbers should go to a country with the most lenient laws for bank robbery to encourage them like you did with your cocaine encouragement.
Isn't our job as older men to teach younger men right from wrong ?
Isn't a vacation for getting away from your normal routine to relax ?
Cocaine sure the hell isn't a drug of choice that the OP is looking for to make one relax plus illegal drug use is wrong.
You jon are just playing the devil's advocate knowing damn well if the OP got caught with cocaine in Poland that it is going to ruin a part of his life.
stop trying to project American hyper-sensitivity onto Europeans.
Quit trying to run my life and go jump in the nearest lake.
More like you three non Polish Europeans projecting your ilk on Poland and America.
This is an American run forum about Poland so if you don't like it stick to ATP.
focus on the topic please
Criminalization for bank robber hasn't worked either
Actually, it has worked rather well.
Isn't our job as older men to teach younger men right from wrong ?
No, it isn't.
There are plenty of drugs in Warsaw and it should be possible to talk about this neutrally and without moralising. There are many issues around drug policy, and a whole range of opinions about this. The OP didn't ask whether or not a given substance should be illegal - that is a seperate question. He asked where he can find a given substance.
Having said that, if he needs to come on here and ask, he probably isn't the right sort of person to score some without making a mess of it.

No it isn't.

Then why are banks still being robbed ?
No, it isn't.
YES it most certainly is.
Just look at inter Chicago kids raised without a father role model for example.
jon, you are all wet with your progressive propaganda.
No it isn't.
Oh o.k., it's not.
I forgot, you Brits are running this forum. lol
Then why are banks still being robbed ?
Or more pertinently, why so few are being robbed nowadays.

Fortunately in Europe we have a more developed social environment, a more joined-up response to social needs.

Speaking of which, a friend of mine was telling me that celebrities in Poland have finally caught up with the excesses of the late 1990's/early 2000's in London and are behaving in an entirely similar way. Coke seems to be very much the drug du jour among the Warsaw jetset these days.

Because if it was talked about by moralizing you would be lost.
You know that cocaine use is very destructive to a persons body, mind, family, business, finances, arrest and on and on.
There is no room to be neutral on encouraging cocaine use as you have done.

The kids in the U.S.A. have many many more activities available to them then the European children by far.
Here we go again, a liberals mind never changes, the ony thing a liberal changes is the subject.
Now get your ass back on topic.

With substance use, whether alcohol, weed, ching, whatever, taking a judgemental approach has only ever worsened the situation.

With weed in particular, it's far more effective to talk to the consumers to find out about the supply chain. There's little to no sense in busting someone for personal use of the stuff.
And keep organised crime out of the loop - something almost impossible to do in PL where Prohibition exists.

Who was talking judgemental I was talking morals which you seem to be lacking.
The OP already stated "You guys are right - staying clean is the best. Thanks" but you continue to give advice as to where to purchase and seem to be extolling the virtues of drug abuse.
in the op's responce "staying clean is the best. " he proved two things one he has a moral compass two he is a man.

Yep, from what I gather, the supply of weed in the Czech Republic in particular is so decentralised that it's impossible for organised crime to get a hold of the supply there. In turn, there's no possibility for dealers to introduce the harder stuff.
