Dutch Drug Policy
The Netherlands is famous for its tolerant drugs policy. But a lot of people don?t realize that drugs are in fact illegal in the Netherlands. Understanding the Dutch drug policy can spare you a lot of trouble.
All drugs are forbidden in the Netherlands. It is illegal to produce, possess, sell, import and export drugs. However, the government designed a drug policy with tolerates smoking cannabis under strict terms and conditions.
Coffeeshops
Coffee shops are only allowed to sell soft drugs and not more than five grams of cannabis per person per day. Coffee shops are governed by strict laws that control the amount of permitted soft drugs, and the conditions in which it is sold and used. Coffee shops are not allowed to advertise drugs. Persons under the age of 18 are prohibited from buying drugs and are barred access to coffee shops.
Drug Policy
The drug policy in the Netherlands aims: to reduce the demand for drugs, the supply of drugs and the risks to drug users, their immediate surroundings and society.
The Dutch recognize that it is impossible to prevent people from using drugs altogether. Coffee shops are therefore allowed to sell small amounts of soft drugs. This pragmatic approach means that authorities can actually focus on the big criminals who profit from drugs and who supply hard drugs.
Facts
The Dutch policy on drugs has been reasonably successful compared to the policies pursued in other countries, especially when it comes to prevention and care. The number of users of various types of drugs is no greater than in other countries, while the figure for drug-related deaths, at 2.4 per million inhabitants, is the lowest in Europe.
It?s better not to use cannabis. If you are planning on smoking cannabis, make sure you don?t get into any trouble. Know what the risks and effects of soft drug are. For more detailed information on the Dutch policy contact the Ministry of Health Welfare and Sport.

So it's illegal, but they allow businesses to sell them... Either the weed is getting to your head or you read the law incorrectly.
Talking about weed might be against forum rules, but I'm unsure since it's illegal in the Netherlands, but the government allows certain businesses to sell them.
This is a United States based forum. Seeing some states allow weed, it should be fine.
