I live in the Netherlands and in a good neighbourhood. One neighbouring house was blasted with heavy gun fire by a passing-by vehicle in an attempt to murder someone. So it’s not unheard of.
Also, in my previous apartment (Amsterdam), I’ve heard a gang execution (shots were fired) in the middle of the night.
I also know people who knows the DJ who was executed inside his car in the presence pf his family.
There’s a problem in the Netherlands.
- zepto 5y agoNone of these are examples of ‘drive-by shootings that kill innocent, uninvolved people’. I’m not saying that drug related violence is not a thing. It accounts for most of the gun related murders in the US, for example. Probably the same is the Netherlands. However, innocent bystanders being at risk is not a thing.
- zabzonk 5y agoYeah, well said. I worked for a couple of years in the NL and didn't really feel as safe as I did in North London (which is saying something).
