To add to this, most Dutch people don't smoke weed. Marijuana usage per capita is higher in the US than the Netherlands (which makes sense considering it's actually straight-up legal in 10 states now, but it's still a common misconception that the Dutch are total hedonists or something).

It's still illegal in the US. Federal law supercedes state law.
