Angry Dutchmen set government’s new migrant housing center on fire
Not The Bee ^ | May 12, 2026 | Joel Abbott

Things are popping off in the Netherlands.

MULTIPLE VIDEOS AT LINK............

The building used to be the town hall of Loosdrecht. Locals have spent weeks telling the government that they do not want it to be converted into a housing center for more illegal aliens.

More from Dutch News on May 8:

Loosdrecht, a waterfront village of some 8,600 near Hilversum, has been the centre of several violent anti-refugee demonstrations in recent days. One person, not local, has been jailed for their role in vandalising the building and police say they expect to make more arrests.

During the May 12 protest/riot, Dutch citizens also blocked the fire department from putting out the fire.

According to the European Conservative, the municipality of Wijdemeren announced in April that the central planners had decided to house migrants at the town hall building until November.

(We all know it won't be just until November.)

Riot police have been called numerous times as locals have gathered to protest. In late April, several people were arrested for smashing up the doors of the town hall/migrant building.

This forced the government to scale back the number of migrants to be housed at the center from 110 to 70, but the first batch was still scheduled to arrive mid-May.

No word on whether the fire changes things, but it certainly does make one wonder where we are "in the course of human events."

And the Dutch police beat the protesters with batons... even if they were just standing there filming him.

It’s worthwhile to remember, 3 of the 4 guys who raided Anne Franks hiding place were Dutch Police.

Sorry, but I don’t like what you are implying. Arson is arson, violence is violences, destruction is destruction, and those who commit these crimes need to be brought to justice, whether it is the Netherlands or Minneapolis or Portland or Ferguson.

This is not who we are.

It's who we were in 1776.

In Ireland they not only set fire to the invader building under construction but destroyed the construction equipment used to build them.

When people feel powerless they do serious things. Again, not minimizing it. But when the institutions of society fail vigilantism is often the result. And it’s rarely orderly and clean.

That's reprehensible. Those protesters are trying to save the country. Which would benefit the cops at home having dinner with their families. Freedom is not free.

What these fellows did was the Dutch version of our Boston Tea Party. Was that wrong too?

It all depends on your definition of “crime” (seriously).

The militiamen at Lexington and Concord were sick and tired of being pushed around. King George saw them as criminals. We don’t.

Perhaps those Dutchmen are also sick and tired of being pushed around.

“This is not who we are.”

Are you sure? Didn’t we do that sort of thing during the American Revolution? Whether you agree with it or not, or think it is moral or not, people facing the obvious extinction of their people in a mere generation will occasionally set fires.

This is nothing. Wait until they figure out fires are enough to solve the problem.

This is not who we are.

lol... who's "we?"

If it's western society, there are plenty of examples of "we" burning, destroying and crushing non state actors as well as governments - foreign and domeestic - when our way of life is threatened.

People, worldwide, are sick of getting crushed, ignored and ruined by their own governments.

If this scandalizes you, wait until "we" start running out of food, money and fuel.

When our own gov’t will not listen to us, who are we to become?

I’d rather they burn down the building to prevent the migrants from being put in, to having people have to deal with criminal migrants.
