I believe your thread title is misleading.
From the article....
"...The party has only three known members,..."
"...The party sparked outrage when it proclaimed its existence in late May,..."
I'm sure here in the States, we have at least three of something bad that could crawl out from under a rock.
And I'm sure it would spark outrage.
If Netherlands laws cite that forming a three man political Party is legal then the Dutch courts hands were tied.

I don't understand why you would think having a political party for something that is illegal should be allowed.
Also I wouldn't consider their penalties for the crimes very tough.
Van den Berg was fined and given a suspended prison sentence for molesting an 11-year-old boy in 1987.

Look, don't put me in a position of defending pedophiles.
My point was the broad brush you used to paint the Netherlands
for the actions of three, which were/are detested in that country
when politcal parties of an illegal intent also exist in the Good Ole' US of A.
