They twisted his words and made him sound like a maniac, which in fact was totally off the scale. But people believed the media (like the dumbasses that they are always do) and what do ya get? Right.
I always stated that it's good that we can choose our own leaders, but the election is multiple-choice and the candidates are all alike. But Pim Fortuyn changed my statement when he arrived at the front lines. Finally some differences. What will happen to our democracy now? Pim stood for freedom of speech. They kill him. So did they kill freedom of speech now too? Will we ever dare to speak our mind again without the fear of being shot to death? Questions that keep arising. It's going to be a tough period the upcoming months.
You might know that I live in Rotterdam, one of the biggest cities with the most criminal activities of our country. I once was attacked by a group of I-dunno-what-kind-of-nationality in MY OWN STREET at 5 PM when I was out to get some food. I just walked there for crying out loud! I didn't do anything offensive in their direction. It sucks big time. I'm gonna move out soon. High up north where such is not as bad as it is in RotterDAMN. 
I haven't watched the news all day yet, so I don't know if Pim's party is still going to continue. I hope they will, cause then we can still vote for them. Whether or not their spokesman is dead, they might still be able to continue his beliefs. |
I totally agree with ya. I also live in Rotterdam and its just not fine living there. And the one of the most bad things is that (and that also happend here when America was attacked on September 11th) some moslim people where happy and smiled the whole time when they were interviewed for tv. And you could here the voice of the tvman get really mad because they said that. And also these moslimguys said that it was good for Fortuyn to be death and the interviewer said: if you not even care about somebodys life, what the hell (well he didn;t said it like that) are you doing here in this country?? Even if you dont like somebody, you dont have to kill him! and thats also with the september 11th attack... you might not like america, but to be happy for so many people who died. Thats just unbelieveble... i think your just a pshycho if you think that way!
And one thing that I want to say: if you live here, you know Fortuyn wanted to do something good for this town especially... I cant even walk to my school alone, because these moslimguys (yes, never a dutch guy) intimidate me and im just scared every morning to walk there and im always looking for somebody to walk with me... thats just not funny that you dont feel save in your own country because of people who came in your country because it was too bad for them to live in their own country... and I dont say its all of them, i would never say that.
