No longer at your service....

Just a few hours ago, a right-winged politician has been shot in The Netherlands. Maybe a few of you have heard from him, Pim Fortuyn. The last few months he created choas in the Dutch politics, which have been dull for the past 60+ years or so.
By doing that, he created a lot of enemies, which became fatal for him in the end.

Can't say he had gotten my vote, but he had some good points, and he sure stirred things up a bit!

Nobody deserves to die this way. A true tragedy :(

man that's really shit. i might not have agreed with his politics but at least he used democratic ways.

i also kinda like liked the fact he was hard-line right wing and as pink as they come.

Heard about that on PRM. Sad, even if I didn't agree with him, that's sad.
