what about the safety of EU citizens? We also have people hungry with no shelter or medical care why don't help them instead? This madness that if someone had put foot on EU soil have the right to stay must stop

If they want ti come to the eu, why cant they apply in their own country at the embassy?

@linmal2242 7 місяців тому

Because Europa does not want them. Africa/Syria is crowded and poor. TOO MANY PEOPLE. !!!

"imagine there's no countries..." Lennon was delussional. Period. Imagine. No more countries. No borders. No more olimpics. Representing - your country, fatherland. Because there is just... Dirt. Or Earth as you call it. No languages - let's talk just one. No flags. No anthems. Then, in next step I guess - imagine, there are no homes, no walls. Walls are racist. There are no garden fences - because Dirt, or Earth belongs to all of us, so you have right to enter wherever you want. Just imagine. And think.

Ger an education. And a heart. All borders are man-made. Like all religions. Who said no homes, no gardens? Stop lying about someone to make them look bad. Be honest first. Then get educated.

Get woke go broke Bobby. Apply for Visa, and wait patiently, who knows, one day you may be even granted. Do not sneak to another countries through border fences if not invited. It's called culture. Hosts of country may not be interested inviting you. Educate yourself first what culture means. Let me remind you, we live in XXI century, it's no more wondering gipsy nomads land. @@bobbybannerjee5156

Borders are man made because it is to segregate cultures and values of different people. My culture is Bharatiya and my people is Bharat.

EU has to get these migrants. It would be racist and egoist to not take them.

Oh, no. I guess we should get rid of borders, then.

@JonDeth 8 місяців тому

The fake news needs conflicts to exploit and to maintain that conflict, reverses roles so the villains are somehow the victims, and the victims are the villains. The fake news and corrupt government claim these people are refugees, but the Geneva conventions require people seeking refuge to report to the immediate most border guard stations and make their plea. *Instead, and as we all know, they don't do this and avoid the legal system by any means necessary to enter and occupy a foreign state.* It's no surprise there are citizens in Poland who will shoot the people illegally invading their country.

@@petergray453 yes 👍 we should replace the white supremacy by africain people and cancel everything that has been done by the white man. White women should marry black men in EU and adopt their cultures. In other words, EU should become Africa, else it’s racism.
