The government isn't responsible, the entire mass of refugees aren't responsible, there's no "these". It's that one guy, he's a dick. It's painfully obvious that your aversion to refugees has to do with you being worried about there being some dicks among them, even if you don;t extend the same worry and group/institutional responsibility when your own dicks are dicks. Aren't you a "them" or a "these"..I mean, you are..after all, part of their group. Perhaps you should be treated as though some criminal was representative of all of "you" - you and yours are a vastly greater statistical risk to the community. I'm guessing you think that's bullshit, in your case. Well, follow through on that thought.(December 7, 2016 at 2:40 pm)Rhythm Wrote: Your own countrymen "hurt the civilians". Maybe you should start kicking them out? At the very least you should be very afraid, and very suspicious. If you're the type that worries about that sort of thing.
Sending them food and water is to send the people you're -actually- afraid of food and water. That's who gets those supplies, because those are the guys with the guns. The people running scared, being turned away by this or that country, they don't get that stuff.......because they don't have the guns. More often than not it leads to a better fed and watered group of bastards creating even more refugees.
Jesus christ. Did the doctor drop all of you when you were born? Obviously there are people who hurt their own countrymen. But by letting refugees in because of a political decision implies responsability. If a government willingly let refugees in, and these hurt someone, who is the responsible? The government.
Also, that food and water would be sent only if it will surely reach the refugees. Like, you know, those are already taking shelter in another countries? I never said I would send an airborne supply.
That's not exactly a sterling rationale for watching people die from afar and then sending them "help" in the form of cheetos, chocodiles and aquafina if and only if they manage to make it into some other country you deem worthy, lol.
