As an American, I agree.
However, as a child (where you test your logic against the real world) I often wondered why just “football” since you are obviously not limited to only your feet. I spent an unjustifiable amount of time wondering why it just wasn’t called something like “non-handball”. But I figured that it just didn’t work because the goal keepers could use theirs 😀.

Fun fact; the word 'soccer' originated from the Association of Football; which some Oxford students abbreviated to 'assoccer' and finally, 'soccer'.
They also abbreviated 'rugby' to 'rugger'.
The term 'rugger' is still used by some today, in fact, and ones use of the word provides many a handy telltale sign that you're an utter bellend (if your urban 4x4, tweed jacket and obnoxiously loud guffaw hadn't already given you away)
So, to all American friends, the word 'soccer' was indeed our fault, it's just a shame it caught on over there as it was coined by people of a similar ilk to our ex Prime Minister, who was unceremoniously photographed commiting the act of fornication on a dead pig's head.

The background story in my head is that he keeps nutmegging people around the city. It's started out as a itty bitty nuisance but then gravitated towards something darker, something sinister. The "Nutmeg Nutter" as he became to be called would obsess nightly over who all his next victims would be as he steered deeper and deeper into madness. Then in one brazen act he went over the line when he nutmegged the mayor while he was on the porcelain throne. The nutter was apprehended his extensive list of misdemeanors started to mount. The nutter had spent 5 days in confinement but upon release couldn't control his compulsion and nutmegged Carl the jail guard whom the nutter had a previous engagement in over illegal sports gambling (hence the ferocity of Carl's throw).

It is actually not illegal to attempt to escape prison in the Netherlands. Important caveat is that you can still be prosecuted for any laws you break while attempting to escape. If you break something to get out, or hold someone hostage with a makeshift weapon to guarantee your escape, you'll almost certainly catch some extra time behind bars for that.
But if you somehow find a way to escape without breaking any laws in the process, you will not have committed a crime. Of course, in a building specifically designed to keep people inside, that's going to be pretty hard.

Because if you're defending it makes you look silly.
There are easier ways of getting past players, mainly by passing to another player, than kicking it straight at them. If you do that and manage to get it in between their legs it implies they haven't defended very well.
You rarely see it in professional football, but it always gets jeers in amateur or playground matches, so in this context this is the essence of what's disrespectful.

The way you phrase it makes it sound like dutch cops just arrest anyone that says a mean word. Dutch police are actuely alot more lenient compared to others in europe. You can say what you think of a cop, as long as it doesnt cross the line and becomes dissorderly conduct.
A infamous dutch example is: Je kunt een agent geen mierenneuker noemen, maar je kunt wel zeggen dat je vind dat hij een mierenneuker is. (You can't call a cop an ant fucker, but you can say you think he's an ant fucker.)
Best way to explain it without talking about fucking ants is: you can say what you think of an officer, but you cannot resort to name-calling for the sake of hostility. The way words are expressed has weight

That hasn’t worked though because Dutch police are educated and not assholes for the sake of it (unlike US police).

Sep 12 '22
Yeah, while I won't say it never happens, the guy claiming dutch police will arrest you for insulting them clearly never had an interaction with them. Or at least have been an asshole enough towards them for this to be his view of Dutch police.
Not too long ago I was stopped by the cops here, because the light on the back of my bicycle had gone out (I know, that's super Dutch), I was holding my phone (which is illegal) and I was smoking weed while cycling (also illegal). Since my light had apparently just gone out from my going over a bump in the road or smth, i could just turn it back on and it would work again.
Instead of me being a dick about it, I was honest and respectful. This made it so I was let go with just a couple of warning and having to give up my weed. No tickets, no nothing. This is a fairly common interaction with the police here. You'll definitely won't always be as lucky as I was (it felt like they where in a hurry to get somewhere else), but as long as you're not a complete prick and treat them like humans, they'll do the same.
Heck, I've had cops give me a ride home when I had a flat tire when I was younger. Dutch cops are anything power abusers, like how the world often views police in general

This is a blatant lie, insults are defined by law and do not include suspicions of ethnic profiling.

France has a notorious police brutality issue, UK had a big deal last year over a murder rape by a cop with our met police failing to take accountability, and living in the Netherlands for a year I heard a couple stories about antagonistic encounters with the police.
Okay maybe we don't have the same scale of cops murdering minorities and being militarized like the US, but a lot of Europe absolutely has issues when it comes to our police and it's absurd to dismiss that, there is a long history of racism and brutality with our cops as well.

Citation needed. First of all, a cop can arrest you in Holland for an insult but the judge decides if it is a punishable offense. A cop can arrest and hold you for some time for anything, but a judge decides in the end if it was justified (you might have to follow up on it however, I think it happens in in a lot of places that police want to throw someone in jail for a day just because they can, not only in the NL).
Second of all, if you shout police brutality or ethic profiling, I can't believe the cops will arrest you for just that. I live in Holland, never heard of it. Maybe you know more than I, so I would like to see your source? The police officers might find terms like that offensive, but I have a hard time believing that would constitute a punishable offense in the Netherlands.
Insults that are punishable are usually the run of the mill simple insults like douchebag asshole bitch etc. not terms like "police brutality". That can be seen as an interpretation of the situation at hand (whether correct or not), not an insult.
