I stand corrected then.

I really wish the First World countries could band together and go into these regions, roust out the bad dictators, and help the population rebuild their infrastructure, sort out their issues...oh wait, we tried that and it blew up in our face. Bush, check.

Not intended as a correction, just a clarification. A lot of people are under the misconception the current problems in Iraq are due to the Obama administration. Obama could have handled it better, but the seeds were sown by his predecessor. The very vocal and very bellicose criticism of Obama's actions by people such as Limbaugh, Hannity, and the large hollow bell-heads at Fox News and others has served as a deflection from the basic underlying facts. Believe me, an awful lot of otherwise reasonable Americans have very little knowledge of the basis for the situation in Iraq and its fallout (ISIS, etc.). I can only imagine what is being reported by overseas news services...

meh, seen it more often than I care to remember. immigrants/refugees going to great lengths and taking even greater risks to reach what they perceive as safety and freedom. so many lose so much.

[Torplexed]

Wow. A picture like that is worth a thousand tragic narratives.

Sad but hope Europe does not give in to PC and emotional guilt trips, they all need to be sent back. I grew angry seeing some of the "refugees" rant and rave as if has a RIGHT to just enter other countries , the sense of entitlement. Reminds me in some ways of those who feel entitled to enter the US without permission. Sad, hope Europe has a learned its lesson with unfettered mideast immigration and sends them all packing.

Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses, yearning to breath free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore,
Send these, the homeless, tempest tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door.

Sign should read NO VACANCY now.Not being inhumane, just can not take in every stray with a sad luck story in the world.US nor most European nations can.Too many people, too few resources.Now, if every actually citizen were living the high life and economy was great, there was room and could come here LEGALLY, no problem.That is not the world in which we live.

The part that angers me is the sense of entitlement some show, especially some Syrians they showed on TV who are being held in Hungary.One man in particular, acted like Europe OWED him sanctuary, just disgusting.

Also, the illegal immigrant who hit my car last year while drunk, who tried to flee the scene, finally got jail time and supposedly will be deported, we shall see.Even if, sure he will come back across.SMH

True, the entire world's full.

This one, at least.
