Is Europe bad for women and blacks?

Riding Sun links to a piece in Newsweek.

Much more troubling to my way of thinking is Jack Lewis’s post about The Netherlands considering forced sterilization of blacks.

But…but I thought that Europe held all the human rights/feminist/gay/race cards, and were the “model” to which America was supposed to aspire?

If this story is true – and it appears to be – it is wrong, deplorable, sinful and awful. But hey, Holland would probably dig it.
