No that's a bit of the irony in the whole situation over there, there are shops that sell almost nothing but ganja but it is still illegal....also everything in Switzerland is governed at Cantonal level so it varies greatly between one canton and the next....
I do believe I know the video shop you mean....just off the Langstrasse (red light millieu)?
In fact in that particular part of town they crack down more and more on all drugs (which in the case of smack, coke and crack is just as well)....
Most young people there are pretty cool and interested in other people's culture and backgrounds etc... although there can be a great deal of racism too....one of my best pals is Swiss/ Senegalese and suffers ignorance and xenophobia (although he is a Swiss national) from time to time.....
anyway glad to know you thought it was cool!
