The link of young male migrants to Europe from some areas and crime is not a right wing myth. Some like to argue about reasons but one could reasonably ask, why should it be our problem in the first place? If those from particular nations have not succeeded in the past for whatever reason we should raise the bar to ensure those we take in in future do succeed.
It is tackling problems honestly with policies based impartially on facts that lowers real racism. Constantly dismissing valid concerns only raises resentment and makes more people support those like Wilders.
I agree entirely with your last sentence, but that's precisely what Wilders wasn't saying yesterday.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014Comment
