I mean words are pretty powerful especially when you're in politics. She's not some ignorant troll on social media spewing hate, she's a public figure in politics and if she's saying things like all muslims should be wiped out I'm gonna take her very seriously. I'm not at all justifying what happened to her I wouldn't wish that on anybody but I can't say I hold as much sympathy towards her as would to someone who wasn't calling for a genocide

It's odd how even a thread about someone being kidnapped and raped by a gang comes back to being the womans fault.. not surprised really

this exactly, being a politician is a big responsibility, and i think most people will take anything what they have to say seriously


but also agree with you, i wouldn't wish such disgusting thing as rape, assault and kidnapping on anyone, not even my enemies if i had any


she also could've just been thinking like i need to have police protection cause suicide and leaving your children and husband behind is also not really the best option


police protection and good help trying to overcome from this horrible rape/assault incident

was she a prominent politician in the netherlands?

She must have been absolutely terrified tbh,poor woman,imagine being killed by the very thing you despise.

second most prominent in the PVV behind their party leader Geert Wilders


and some in the Tweede Kamer highest politics branch wanted her out of that because of her anti-muslim views, with also an Eerste Kamer where the lesser debates are held mostly from city mayors and younger teenage politicians

and is the PVV a prominent party in the netherlands?

awful enough my family voted for them, while i didn't want to


Geert Wilders their leader is more like the dutch Trump, but also a mix with Corbyn i guess


he is against any foreigners in our country, but he's being a bit hypocritical with that since his own wife is from Hungary and also doesn't really speak a word dutch


prominent party's here are CDA (christian democrat party) SP (socialistic party) VVD (freedom of democracy party, also from our current PM Mark Rutte) GroenLinks (they are for the youth and nature)

idgi, how’s he like Jeremy Corbyn if he’s also like Donald Trump?

he looks like Trump, on the daily show with trevor noah was also mentioned Wilders could've been Trump's son

his political views are more like Corbyn's

I'm not saying it's her fault at all. It's not gone over my head why something like rape was used as a weapon against a woman and I think it's a repugnant thing to do. I condemn those responsible and hope they receive the harshest sentence possible. However when a lot of my extended family and friends muslim I find it hard to a whole lot of sympathy for someone who would rather they were wiped out.

but Corbyn is liberal, you said that this Gert man is conservative

i meant Corbyn's anti-semitism views, Wilders also has those views

No. I was just saying it personally makes me feel less sympathetic as opposed to someone who'd just been walking around living their life rather than spewing hate. That's all. It still isn't justified though.

Yes, that's what I was saying. thank you.

"Thing" - you mean muslims? like, I understand your anger at the rapist but this doesn't represent all muslims..

People are quick to disregard the lives of muslims as less important. Imagine if a muslim guy had said he wanted all white people wiped out by an atomic bomb.. right-wing trolls have said and done worse to muslims for simply existing.

corbyn’s not anti semetic lol

It works both ways though armand.kay, they also hate the Western world


There are loads of videos like this.

no respect :shrug:

uncapitalized name of a country :nono:

and your point is...

like how is that even relevant mess :skull:

This isn't an us vs them situation where every single muslim wants to see the end the western world. Like I said I have muslim friends and family I don't really think they should be lumped in with radicles.

also theres loads of videos I can find of white people expressing hate towards people like me and you don't see me calling for a white genocide

That's what I said armand.kay it works both ways, I have muslim friends too I think most of us have, it's a shame anyone hates anyone really,but there is a lot of it about.

I'd prefer politicians to be honest and say what they believe to gain votes rather than be dishonest to gain votes.

I think we should all take the ppv's advice and "leave willie alone"


Until the accusations and story is confirmed.

yeah it really a shame

Did I give off the impression that I would have it another way?

Yes it certainly isn't and I don't in anyway shape or form agree with her views or what she said
