Sunday 12 February RNW - NEWS AND ANALYSIS FROM THE NETHERLANDS IN 10 LANGUAGES, WORLDWIDE 24/7 ON RADIO, TV AND ONLINE
Hiram 5 February 2010 - 5:59pm / USA

"Dutch nightclubs to collect illegal arms"......How will the nightclubs collect the "illegal arms" from those who are entering the clubs and cafés? Will it be left to the carriers of the "illegal" arms to turn in their arms or will all citizens be required to submit to a pat or strip search of their bodies? Do you really believe that someone who carries an illegal weapon will turn in their arms like an honest citizen would do? Are the citizens of the Nethrlands going to give away another personal freedom and allow the owners of the clubs and cafés to search their bodies like the police do with criminals? Why not allow all businesses to search the shoppers who enter their businesses? Criminals are not honest citizens and therefore do not turn in their weapons into the owners of any business. They carry the weapons in order to hurt someone or for protection. Those who do carry arms and are not criminals carry weapons in order to protect themselves from those criminals who have no qualms about hurting someone? { The Dutch government was proud about about their prison cells being empty. Could that be a reason why so many people are carrying "illegal" arms around with them. There are so many dangerous criminals running around on the streets that honest people have to carry an illegal arms in order to protect them selves?
