I am in total agreement with xyz, it could not have been said better.
The Dutch justice system needs to wake up and start really handing down sentences to those who act in violation of the law.
The persons who commit crime on the Dutch side laugh our laws to scorn.
And this is why we have so many repeat offenders and also others happily joining the pact.
They need to be taught a serious lesson when commiting a crime, That way they will think before they act.
