On Saturday and Sunday nights, a group of Dutch citizens gathered at the border between Ter Apel and Rütenbrock in Germany with the intention of performing their own border controls and stopping asylum seekers from entering the Netherlands.
The racists strike again
it is illegal to stop cars in this way on your own initiative. It is also illegal to prevent an asylum seeker from seeking asylum,
PVV leader Geert Wilders called the citizens’ border controls a “fantastic initiative” that should happen “everywhere at the border.”
Far right racist politician supporting highly illegal citizen stops. That should be an instant ban from parliament.
Wilders toppled the Schoof I Cabinet last week, saying the government was taking too long to implement the strictest asylum policy yet, as promised when it took office. Wilders failed to mention that it was PVV Minister Marjolein Faber of Asylum and Migration who was responsible for implementing said policy.
This is something extremely common in far right racist politics. They always blame others so they can ask for more power.
Well, in Germany the chancellor is ordering the illegal border stops and continuing them despite courts ordering him to stop.
every country would be better if shitty people like this could be kicked out. though there is no place to kick them to.
because of people like this, i'd rather stay and die with my belongings if war ever came to my country. Its awful world to seek asylum anywhere.

We're all just people and some of us have shitty ideas. The people can't go anywhere, there's just this one planet. The ideas can change, it's just very, very hard.
yea, i just wish those people would be on the receiving end of their own shittyness for change. Some seem incapable of empathy unless exactly same thing happens to them.
Personally, i think we (i’m Dutch) need to at the very least, consider rethinking our “asiel beleid”. This unhappyness is not something that came out of thin air. This asylum policy has been an issue for many years, and our government fails to address it every time.
But ordinary citizens should not play for law makers and law enforcers. Thats a very dangerous and slippery path we’re on :(

What's the issue arising from the current asylum policy?
