Don't blame Wilders and Verdonk. You can't even blame the people for supporting them. The only ones you can blame are the established parties who are out of touch with the people.

Why is it possible that cars burn for several nights after some hoodlum is shot by a police officer who was defending his life? Why is it possible that a bus operator needs to suspend his schedule in a certain neighbourhood because the drivers are scared for their lives? Why is it possible that medical personnel on an ambulance are threatened with their lives when they try to help to save a life?

I understand that it's no easy task to solve the problems we're currently having with certain minority groups, but I think beating around the bush and pretending the problem does not exist is not the best way to go about it. I'm not advocating Wilder's style, but you could find some middle road here, I'm sure.
