Are We Dutchmen Nazis?

Well, some Dutchmen are in doubt whether we Dutchies are the tolerant people we once allegedly were, with the rise of Pim Fortuyn almost three years ago and the things that happened after Van Gogh's murder, but I am proud of my country when it comes to more liberal stances concerning something like gay marriage, and like you say Andem, I think Canada and the Netherlands have a special bond in that.

Rick, I see where your concerns come in. The Netherlands has to overcome outside influences, piticularly those of the United States.
They are still very liberal and tolerant people, but there are sections of society which stand out now and intolerant.
Just to add on: The USA's majority seem intolerant while Canada and NL are the opposite.

I I think Holland is no where near being a bunch of Nazi's. Now if you had asked about a certain other country(not Canada) I would have a diferent answer.

I wouldn't worry about that too much, Rick. I openly smoked dope in a couple of venues in Plentywood, Montana a long while ago. Pretty conservative place, but nobody there was worried about getting busted.

As to the Fortuyn and Van Gogh murders...I've always felt that there was something amiss there...that they were killed to send a message...but not the message that we are led to believe...

Seems to me that it's more of the American fascists labelling everybody else [fill in the blank].

Oh by the way...between the murder of Fortuyn and Van Gogh...exactly 911 days had passed...coincidence?
