Anti-hate crime campaign launched
Friday 21 March 2008
Police in Amsterdam and Nijmegen have begun a major online campaign against ‘hate crimes’, the Volkskrant reports on Friday.
Everyone who is bullied, intimidated or attacked on the basis of their sexual orientation, religion or colour is being urged to report the incident via the internet.
Police hope they will get better insight into the frequency of hate crimes. The current proportion of registered hate crimes is ‘unacceptably low,’ police spokesman Jan Snijder told the paper.

It sounds fab! I just wonder how many of the dutch police are rasict themselfs??
My neighbour is one of them. We had a argument about a fence. He got pissed off and told us to go back where we come from. Charming !
Another neigbour just made the test to become a police man and he told me he hates all polish people I ask myself should the police start to educate the guys better ????
I'm shocked about the rudness of police officers they should be ashamed!!
