Indeed, the G&M article reports on Dutch families upset by their country's loss of identity. They lament about the mongrelization of the Netherlands and how they don't feel at home anymore... So, what's their plan to remedy such a cultural despondency? To give up on Dutch culture completely and resettle in faraway countries like Canada, New Zealand and Australia --ROFL! And, tell me Tejek, how much Dutch culture are they going to enjoy down there? The only feature common to Australia, New Zealand and Canada is their lily-white immigration policy --with an exception for British Columbia and its large East Asian community. I see.......so instead of reacting violently, Europeans emigrate when they are unhappy with racial issues. There is a pattern there.......its how the US got settled. Those Dutch "monoescapists" candidly betrayed their racist misgivings: if it were, as they claim, merely a matter of preserving their Dutch heritage then why didn't they relocate in next-door Belgium? I assure you, there are some nice places in Dutch-speaking Flanders where you won't encounter many darkies: Maybe they are tired of the Dutch tradition of tolerance and want to escape it completely. As I said, Europeans feel increasingly jittery about Europe's multiRACIAL evolution. That's why you won't find Dutch party-poopers leaving for Mexifornia or Surinam: Honestly......I think you are all over the board with these racial issues.
