There could be "sympathy vote." There could also be people who have learned his views via the assassination, and agree with them, views suppressed, obscured and demonized by the local P.C. Police.

I wonder where the Christian Democrat Party, which the article calls "right-wing", stands on immigration. Anybody know?

Something is happening in Europe. There is a swing away from the "Third Way" leftism of the '90's toward conservatism, but there is somthing else also. There seems to be a wave of populism, a rejection of the tweedledee-tweedledum politics that has prevailed in many European countries. This bears watching.

Some have broached the subject on this thread, the matter of Moslem immigrants in Fortuyn's homeland.  I look at it like this.

It occurs to me that there is little difference between unbriddled immigration and full-on invasion.  Both result in the occupation of foreign territory.  One doesn't involve force or guns.  And because it doesn't, it is mistakenly viewed as benign.  It is anything but benign in my opinion.

When tens of millions of illegal aliens enter the United States, they occupy vast regions of US territory.  Due to the tendency of like people to congregated with like people, these regions wind up totally under the controll of the invading hoards.  This is every bit as much an insurgency as an invading army.  Sooner or later the occupying force will constitute the majority status.  Their will, will be domonstrated and old populations will be subjegated.  Cultures and values systems will be replaced.

This is happening with rapidity in Europe and the United States.  The blinding speed with which this is occurring is simply amazing.

What is taking place is not just an invasion.  It is the managed subjegation of sovereign peoples and their homelands.  It is being facilitated by the elected leaders of the free world.  It endangers the self-determinative aspects of the host nations.  As native populations deminish as the rightful airs heirs to decisions that affect their own nations, outside forces userp that right in the interest of foreign values, cultures and sovereignties.

We are seeing the systematic decapitation of self-rule in western nations.  Note that when whites ruled South Africa it was deemed a bad thing.  Try as hard as I might, I have seen no such correlation attached to foreign nationals who have occupied western modernized nation states.  Third worlders rule in this new internationalist environment.

When it comes to western nations these days, you snooze, you lose.

I see nothing but snoozing going on.

So much for the waning hope of the leftist media elite that dutch voters would drift away from LPF as the election drew nearer.

And Frank Poortuyes, of De Volkskrant newspaper, said the left was "taking a hammering" partly because some voters held it responsible for demonising Mr Fortuyn, thereby playing a role in his murder.

The best news I've heard all day.

I believe this is authentic. The message has been sent, any advocacy for a rational discussion on immigration that is reflective of a responsible formulation of public policy that benefits the population of a first world country over the interests of third world immigrants will get you a head shot.

I believe this single act has changed a lot of minds, while an immigration policy friendly to third world aspiring immigrants is compassionate, the virulent anti western leftist agenda cynically abuses that lattitude to advance the cause of thirld world tyrrany and intolerance.

Millions of voters got the message, compassion for reptiles is a recipe for disaster, both overseas and here on our southern border.

Thanks for the good news. I want to see good come from the senseless murder of Pim Fortuyn. I like what Andrew Sullivan said:

"One way to respect his legacy and defy the violence that felled him is to follow his example and keep stating what we know to be true."

Why is anti-immigration by itself considered "right-wing." There are plenty of socialists that are anti-immigrant as well. Le Pen himself even said that in many areas he is a socialist.
