I couldn't care less.
Nobody cares about backwater trailer parks on that side of the Atlantic anyways.

I couldn't point Wisonsin out on a map, even if I spelled it correctly.
Well, Shav, nobody on this side of the Atlantic cares much about what’s happening in the Sewers of Holland, so I suppose we’re tied on that score…

He mentioned 'rotterdam' a few clicks back. What is that? Why write that. Rotterdam. Do we know rotterdam. Shall we incorporate into our posts? He seems proud of rotterdam or something. What ?

I think Shav lives in a country that has no stock exchange. I cannot imagine. Do they make their money over here? Shav? Is there a thank-you in order? You slam how horrible the uSA is (hahahahaha) and don't even have an investment vehicle?? hahaha.
How 'bout Zahlanzi, in a country socialist about 40 years ago, who wrote that we are a s'hole country. So, for our American posters, I dutifully googled "Does Scotland have a stock market". They have tried!!! But they don't!! Then I googled to compare quality of life in USA with Romania. We rank 14%, Romania 57%.
I feel like America needs me on Forums to speak the truth!!!

Rotterdam is the biggest harbour in the Netherlands and continental Europe.

People have demonstrated against COVID-measures. The demonstrations went out of hand and burning barricades have been erected and torn down.

The Netherland Stock Exchanged opened in Amsterdam in 1611.

Besides this being an attrocious act (I don’t know the details other than what’s been reported, so it’s hard to see if this is religiously motivated, left-wing, right-wing, mentally unstable or what) why the hell is there a Christmas parade in November?
Evidently (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Claus_parade) the parade is held to ceöebrate the start of the Christmas season. I also were totally unaware of such a rite.

Is there no end to the grief that you libs bring to people who are trying to keep their lives afloat in the midst of, breathing the same breath as, the horrible cretins whom you all support.? You do, you know you do, support them, you will not condemn them. You will not condemn them. My heart is breaking.
The Problem is that you directly attack "libs" at a situation were nobody knows anything concrete.

At a different thread you asked people to wait until the facts were established. To give good advice but not heeding same is called what?

Absolutely,, I was quite facetious,, just pointing out the vacant meaningless posts which show up sometime. I love Netherlands. People say we should be like Netherlands,, as if a country of 340M could operate that way. You note that I write about culture a lot. I think we outnumber in that department. Your cultures over there don't create near the messes that ours do. Have you heard what is happening at our border? You fellers best post a few more guns on your borders. They will flat use up your resources. But, I digress.

But its culture. The same culture of the humans that ransack innocent dept stores and drug stores. Does the color of their skin have anything to do with theircrime? I know very nice black people but they are not of that culture.
I think descriptions should be assigned a new word for various cultures. Then people like me would not be called racists all the time. Also ...[text shortened]... down that are of that culture. They would not feel like they have to defend them anymore. Hallelujah
Well how about all those mass school shootings? As I recall, all were perpetrated by young white males who probably all had some Christian religious training. Maybe we should be worried about that white crowd. White Christian culture is the worst and you are a prime example.

Also it's reported that the driver was fleeing from another crime scene and the parade just got in his way. Funny how they aren't giving any description of him:

They're still cleaning up the folding chairs and you want to pull the race card?

There have been plenty of school shootings by blacks. Please shut up.

Racists have to racist, I suppose.

Can't we just acknowledge and condemn this horrible crime without automatically blaming it on a "black culture" that exists only in the racist stereotypes of right wingers? Or dragging politics into it like right wingers insist on doing from the OP?

Cut to the chase, ponderable. The society of today has been created by the liberal policies of the liberal politicians....shall we start with the border? How bout no more arrests of the cretins who shoplift goods worth less than $949.00????
I directly attack libs for creating and allowing this wide open wild Wild West atmosphere. They want to get rid of police for god sakes. Would you care to rewrite this post? Jesus.
And, hey, ,I know it as being quite concrete. The facts are in, ponderable. Our govt is MORE CONCERNED, MORE CONCERNED about illegals than they are about our own citizens. Look again, take off your liberal-tainted glasses.

Link me a video of an of-white person stealing goods in the stores. You are a link person, ,are you not?
Golly, maybe the hoodies cover skin color. Do you have a hoodie, Marauder?
