    blond hair and blue eyes

    Yes, I‘m sure it‘s their hair and eye color rather than the obvious fact that refugees from war torn countries in the Middle East have endangered public security here. It‘s not groups of Ukrainians that have quite literally raped and killed children in my country.

    That all refugees are equal sounds like some lefty thing, in reality they obviously are not. Turning a blind eye to reality and accusing those that do not of racism isn’t going to win any elections. That’s why I doubt any efforts that would help more refugees come to Europe would be politically successful.

    For what it‘s worth I am sorry for the refugees. I don’t know how we can help the situation without risking our own safety. Crying racism isn’t going to do it. We would need to convince voters that a solution does not threaten safety here.

    I‘d imagine that if we want to implement stronger sea rescue operations, we would need a legal basis for bringing the rescued to another location, rather than settling them in Europe while we start years long asylum processes that can never realistically be fair. I doubt voters are going to approve otherwise.
