There is no justification for this, just none at all. Anyone who attempts to justify it is a cunt by association.

This is a normal post I disagree, he has spent his recent political life consumed with concern about immigration
It doesn't make him a racist, merely a bit obsessed. Unfortunately the waves of migrants featured in this poster don't feature white Europeans, because they are coming from countries where people have darker skins. The sort of wanker who immediately accuses him of being a cunt because he is concerned about uncontrolled migration are themselves a spastic, and a pretty tragic one at that

Also the photo features mainly young men, was taken in Slovenia so presumaly they've already passed through Turkey, Greece or Macedonia, Serbia, Hungary or Croatia.

If you make the assumption their refugees then they've already passed though a number of safe havens where they could have claimed asylum. (If the EU hadn't closed the internal borders leaving Greece to deal with it)

This is a normal post I don't buy that 'not refugees once they've crossed a line in the sand' thing
They're refugees until they've found somewhere that will accept them. And it's ridiculous to think the outer countries of Europe should take absolutely everyone. Especially when the central EU countries have had a part in bombing the fuck out of their country.

No matter how unpalatable it will be for our political overlords, and for the gung-ho elements of our populations who whooped along to the whole thing, we HAVE to accept some responsibility for the absolutely dire situation in the Middle East.
The entire region has been a strategic playground for global powers for nearly a fucking century. They have played countries, tribes, religions and societies agaianst each other for their own strategic ends. Who'd have thunk that the outcome would be a region-wide bloodbath eh?

However you just cannot tell from a photo if someone is an economic migrant or a refugee.

This is a normal post Turkey
The first country they landed at was Turkey. If Turkey's such a great "safe" country then why are people up in arms about the prospect of them joining the EU? Confusing eh?

The refugees (yes, refugees not "migrants", even if the correct terminology does make you feel uncomfortable) in the photo were trying to get to Germany, who at the time had said they were welcome.

It's really not a hard concept to grasp.

This is a normal post Was that me? I used the term "migrant" because it's neutral.

Also where that photo was taken they would have passed through at least 4 safe countries and could have claimed their rights of asylum under international law.

This is a normal post We have a solution then
You can fuck off and live in Turkey which you clearly consider a veritable paradise, whilst the refugees escaping 6 years of bombardment, starvation, murder, rape, brutalisation and excruciating deprivation can pass through Turkey to more civilised societies in Europe. You won't have to live near refugees and I won't have to share the same air as you. Win win eh?

This is a normal post The point is..
That its not a simple situation with a simple answer. In fact, the whole scenario is an absolute clusterfuck and will require a more nuanced response than either closing borders or sending in troops. However, we have a media and a majority of the population who want to portray the situation in the childish paradigm of goodies vs baddies.
The problem is, the people who we call baddies were goodies not too long ago and the goodies were baddies before that, and at some point soon we'll be calling THEM baddies again. Meanwhile, outside the Western geopolitical sphere, there are other players who are calling OUR goodies baddies!!!

What is very patently fucking obvious though to anyone with a modicum of intelligence, is that 13 years of military invention has made things a HELL of a lot worse.

Soooo, we have a refugee crisis because of an ongoing armed conflict in Syria, yes?

You suggest we ESCALATE the conflict by sending in foreign ground forces, yes?

I'm just wondering, do you think an escalation of the conflict will:

A) decrease the number of refugees

OR

B) increase the number of refugees

I know its a toughie, but if you rub your two brain cells together for a few minutes, I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out.

This is a normal post Yes, there are only ever two possible outcomes in this digital world.
Clearing an area of hostile forces and having it under UN protection would in no way create a safe area for people to exist and build a life.

The problem we have is the world has lost its appetite to commit long term to anything and the complete mess of alliances and proxy wars means we are just turning a blind eye to the suffering unless it can make its own way to Calais.

This is a normal post Yes I thought that was going to be your angle
Ok so right now nobody knows why he murdered her and generally people on both sides of this bloody debate are respectfully not using her death for political gain.

However if you want to go on assumptions let's see what we currently assume.

1) He shouted something like "Britain first"
2) Reports are he bought a book from a white supremisist group in 1999 that had instructions for making a pipe gun.
3) He was a member of the far right Springbok Club.
4) He's suffered with an unknown mental illness that he has recieved treatment for.

I'm failing to see how you can blame farage for her death.
Whilst it's certainly looking like he was very right wing in his views farage isn't the king of right wing people. You might as well say cameron has blood on his hands for starting this whole process. Or how about the Paul Golding the leader of "britain first". How wide are you going to spread the blame?
Everyone who's been calling to leave the EU? Because that's a lot of fucking people on all sides of the political spectrum.

Yes the boat thing might have been a trigger.

What are you suggesting, we ban all protests and counter protests because someone with a mental illness might finally snap seeing it on the telly?
