“The German university city of Göttingen is being taken over by marijuana plants. Behind the phenomenon is a group of pro-pot activists who planted seeds around town to stir debate over the plant’s illegal status. City authorities are not amused. The university town of Göttingen is getting greener and greener. But not everyone is pleased: The new plants sprouting up in parks, planter boxes and gardens across the city aren’t part of an official city-beautification project. Planting the seeds was a protest against Germany’s ‘restrictive drug policies,’ the group said, arguing that it’s incomprehensible ‘why cannabis, unlike alcohol, cannot be legally purchased.'”
