Why are people so cruel? Refugees

[AdamJa]

Of course, they should respect the rules and culture in Europe.

They should respect the rules and culture anywhere they are asking to seek refuse at. Not just in Europe.

Of course that`s what i meant

So, I`m from Hungary (not living there anymore) and as you all know we had/have this problem with immigrants/refugees from the Middle-East.
Many of them are really just economic immigrants and they want a more comfortable life. But i still can`t believe how people would treat them in Hungary.
On facebook people are hating on them like crazy. Absolutely badshit crazy.
Middle aged mothers (while smiling on the profile photo with their little grand-children) are commenting things like, "we should just kill them all" or "why not just shoot them". 
I know these are only facebook comments, and they would be scared to do anything like this in real life (fortunately), but still it really annoys me.
These kind of behaviour is why i left Hungary to live in Portugal (people are quite nice here).

I`m from the North-west of Hungary, so we have quite a lot of immigrants/refugees going through here to Austria. 

I know there are many view-points to this thing. Like, why refugees not just stop in the first country where`s no war and why are they want to go to Germany?
Or the hypocrisy: A lot of the people writing this kind if shit are the ones who are working in Austria for more money, so they are too economic immigrants.


I don`t know what would be the right solution for this crisis over there, but whatever it is, they are still humans!! As the OP said: "But what is worth more: a life or a bunch of money?"

It just really bothers me, that people are like this there. Sorry.

Bold mine.

It's sad that we'd rather get busy naming which countries take in how many refugees instead of loudly condemning the wickedness of ordinary citizens who say "Let's just shoot them all". I've seen it too myself - a grandmother on social media writing despicable comments about a boy whose body washed up on a Greek beach last year. Not comments about immigrants in general - no, she went out of her way to comment directly about the boy and his family. This while she had photos on her profile of her young grandchildren and "inspirational" memes.

How wide is the space between "my government needs to limit the number of immigrant refugees" and "Let's just shoot them all"?
I wonder.

Well yes, that`s what I intended to be the main thing. 
I don`t know much about politics, i don`t know for sure that how many immigrants/refugees has been taken in by which countries. But at the end, it`s not that important, is it? It`s all about life,and not about money. Of course we need to be careful, but still we need to help them. Every one them, if it comes to that.
