Grouping all dutch ppl into that catigory when it is 1 hospitals doing, just isnt right. Its racist. I agree that if what that article says is true, its horrific to say the least.

Thanks for validating my point so perfectly.

but its not factually incorrect and it is an opinion piece - what's the problem?

^your point being?

BWAYAHAHAHA

This is my favourite stream of quotes form this article:

FIRST
Once a single category of life is declassified as having no intrinsic value and a right to life, it is a very short step to declassify other categories when they are considered inconvenient, or burdensome

SECOND
The Dutch are now grappling with their open border policy. They have admitted thousands of radical Islamists who have not assimilated and are threatening the stability of the nation.


FIRST - he takes the position that all life is equal and we shouldn't differentiate and when we do, it's a slippery slope to becoming monsters.

SECOND - he takes the position that not all life is equal because there exist these demons called 'islamists', and of course he probably supports the slippery slope in guantanamo bay and other acts of becoming a monster.

H Y P O C R I T E!

Do Dutch people really smoke pot all over the place all the time? Is this one of the contributing demises of the country? If this were the case, would it be decriminalized? I haven't been to Holland so I wouldn't know, although I would like to

No, in fact when I was there I didn't notice anyone smoking anymore pot in public then I do here in Canada. Holland was awesome. In fact, as people they rank highly up on my list. Sure they may be brutally honest... but we could use more of that. Crossing the border from Germany to Holland was a great experience. Instantly people sparked conversation, helped with luggage/ directions.

Anyways, I'm going totally off topic here. It was not a potfest 24/7, and I truly doubt that the decriminalization of pot there, has negatively affected the country.
Peace.

I loved smoking Nepalese Temple ball hash in Amsterdam.

When I die, dont send me to heaven.
Send me to Amsterdam.

First of all. This isn't Fox News' opinion. It's the opinion of a columnist. Learn the difference between a news story and an editorial.

DOH DOH DOH!!!! STUPID AMERICANS!!!


You say it's wrong for Fox News to lump in all Dutch people, yet the first thing out of your mouth is you lumping all Americans in with Fox News. Way to discredit yourself so quickly.

Why talking sh¡t about my country (all LIES LIES LIES), while they don't even know their own country!


Ok so Fox News "talks sh1t" about your country, and you do the same to them. How can you be so insulted when you are every bit as prepared to commit the same sin you descry in someone else?

I just said "stupid Americans" and you see it as a threat to all Americans? Just one opinion from me and you already see it as a problem, while this columnist says a bunch of crap about my country. Who's turning words? Not me. But yeah, like I care.

I know this is Fox news, but there are a group of people out there on the web that only reads/listens/sees Fox news which they will eventually believe in the stupid things he sais. Then maybe these small group of people pass it onto other people etc. etc. and then eventually everyone will believe that Dutch people are nazi's/baby killers and stuff.

Do Dutch people really smoke pot all over the place all the time?
No, I live in a small town and almost no one here smokes pot/use other drugs or so whatever. But if you go to a city like Rotterdam or Amsterdam, then you seriously smell the air of weed at most parts in town.
At most places, smoking pot and drugs use is still illegal here in Holland. If you get caught by the police, you have to pay a a big fine for that.

I was in Vancouver last summer - did a little research and as what I have seen. Vancouver's police don't seem much to care about those who smoke pot or use other drugs on the streets. I remember the first day when I was in Canada, which was on "Canada Day" - sitting on a couch outside at night on Granville St. with this 'friend' (ugh,,, 'friend' oh God,,, more like an asshole) of mine. There were these 2 girls sitting on the ground making paintings on cardboards - they said some weird things and they thought they were butterflies. Three words: they were high. Okay, so a bunch of guys came around the corner and saw those girls getting high and stuff. They knew they had weed with them, so they start dealing drugs. Police came by and they did NOTHING! I was like: "WTF???". If it was in Holland, they will get a big punishment for that. I dunno,,, but I guess that it ain't such a big deal using/dealing drugs in Canada as it is in Holland.

But there is one part to use drugs as a legal object. If a person has some kind of disease or is in much pain - with a description from your doctor; it's legal to use it.

Ever see a PSV Eindhoven game?
Yay! They're my fav soccer team!

I think that the slack drugs laws are more in BC than in Canada as a whole.

Vancouver is the worst of all. Cops have too much to worry about to bother some random girls with weed.

That article is atrocious indeed.

Typical Fox TV behavior to use the word Nazi to their advantage while ostricizing an entire country.
I saw Dutch footage from when the Nazi's occupation of Holland finally ended. The Dutch people got all women that were seen with German men during their occupation and cut off their hair, carved swastikas into their foreheads, and beat them as they ran screaming thru the streets.

Respect.
