I love the TUF TUF site, and this sounds familiar,
"Extremely surprised I was after reading the news today. Drugs couriers 'caught' with less than 3 KG of drugs on Amsterdam airport are free to continue their trip. This because of the judiciary department that'll be overburdened.
People are sent home when trying to report a burglary, a holdup, a rape or want to file a complaint at the police station. The cops are too busy, "could you please make an appointment for your report". One task however is never subject of reduction. And that's Mr. Spee's veiled speed-tax. Massively policemen go out on the road every day to make sure of this tax income. Often two people nicely chatting together while the camera flashes away. All fines are put through ASAP by that same judiciary department.
But on Amsterdam airport there's to little capacity to bust and condemn drugs couriers. The policy now is 3 KG of drugs or less, this is accepted. How on earth is that possible. How far must it go. Holland is a paradise for criminals, but don't you dare exceeding the speed limit with 4 km/h. Then there's more than enough time. We'll be up to a point that if I'm abroad, I just will be ashamed to say; I'm Dutch."

And we thought we were the only ones that were being persecuted because its easier than chasing the true criminals. Thats because it costs money and you can't raise any revenue from them.
