Did this actually happen to you? I've been to, and even smoked weed in (discreetly), Germany many times as a tourist without issue. It was just annoying that it was technically illegal...but no one ever attempted to drug test me or ask me about drug use at all.

Yes, I didn't spend a lot of time in Germany but it happened several times. I traveled by train and they claim the train stations are where people do their business
