Well you also smoke dope whilst sipping your lattes.

Actually (and I'm not Dutch, so correct me if I'm wrong), but the oddest thing about an Amsterdam coffee shop is that you can't actually purchase coffee there. And, similarly, you can't purchase or smoke weed at a Cafe. It's just a bizarre naming convention. Like an official euphemism.

They do sell coffee in coffeeshops. No alcohol though.
If a bar is caught to have allowed a drug dealer inside, the place gets closed down. So indeed the bars tend to be pretty strict against drugs being sold inside their place. I'm not sure if people are allowed to smoke a joint in a bar. In my days that was allowed, but that's about two decades ago :angel:
In a few months there will be a complete smoking ban in bars, People are allowed to smoke in coffeeshops, but the shops have to sell the softdrugs in a smoke free area. It's the anti smokers mafia at it's worst.

I was wondering about this too. Not knowing the situation of course, but I'm pretty sure I would at least have called the person the next morning to straighten things out.

God I hate anti-smoking fanatics. I wish they'd just mind their own bloody business. They almost make me want to take up smoking just to spite them.
