    The funniest thing to me is ‘take their passports away’ and ‘deport them’ as if these are recent immigrants. Most of these kids are 2nd or 3rd generation, and fully Dutch citizens, so nothing can be done against them in that way

      This. Also, scratch that 2nd, these day the 4th generation is coming of age, and it’s getting boring to refer to them as anything other than Dutch. Sure, they may call themselves Moroccan or Turkish, but it’s the same as all the Irish people of Boston.

        Similar but different in that they still return to their families countries of origin regularly and speak Arabic actively. Americans are usually divested of that fully by the 2nd generation.

          Yeah definitely I’m not denying them their moroccan identity, just talking strictly legally they’re Dutch 100%

      Nothing can be done against them right now, but a hundred years ago denaturalization was en vogue. We gotta make sure we don’t go back to that past.
