rightwing Dutch politician assassinated

very mad. i recently watched a
documentary on this guy (just a
couple of nights ago), and remember
thinking that he was the most
dangerous of the European so-called
"New Right", as not only was he very
popular; but he was highly articulate,
and frankly seemed like an amazingly
nice person (funny how people with
extreme beliefs can sometimes pull
that off).

Anyways; while i detest extreme
right-wing beliefs, it saddens me that
he was murdered. No good can come
of violence (except where all other
alternatives have been blocked). And
this act can only make a martyr of the
guy and provide (in some ways,
justified) ammunition for other ultra-
right politicians around Europe.
