I've read it was said by Natalee's mother on the show.
I'm happy to read that you agree that you can't generalise about a whole country like that.
It is wrong and uncalled for.

I did not watch the whole show,so if she said that I did miss it. It is a shame to see so much stereotyping. I am troubled to see this become a Dutch Vs. American saga.  Since 1999~I boycott South Padre Island(Texas) also in my own country,because of a girl who was victimized there after being given the date rape drug. She came out alive,thankfully. But that is how I protest things that I am otherwise "powerless" to change. So a boycott seemed like a good idea to me,but I did not want to hurt any people's lifeline. 

Truthfully,I think the Arubans and the South Padre Island people could probably not care any less if I came there or not!!!
