    Facts? No, not facts. You're essentially spouting "niggers just don't want to learn! Them wetbacks don't want to work!" There is no reasonable, rational response to that. What people like you need is merciless mockery, because you're a fucking bigot who thinks he owns the high ground when he merely stands on a mountain of shit.

    And yet you still haven't produced a single stat to backup anything you say other than insults and shrieking "RACIST!!!!"

    Do you even fathom how retarded you look at this moment?

    And you haven't produced a single stat to backup your claims.

    EDIT: But good on working the words "nigger's" and "wetbacks" into you retardation. Maybe with such emotionally charged words people will ignore the fact you can't backup anything you say.

    Whatever @Dinner may be right about, and I'm not convinced his "facts" are at all comprehensive or even accurate, his rhetoric is clearly intended to outrage rather than inform. It's every bit as emotionally driven an argument as using the image of the drowned child.

    Why would I provide statistics regarding a racist comment? You don't argue statistics against racism, you argue emotionalism against racism, because numbers do not matter to a bigot.

    I used the image because the image pisses me off. Because the image is devastating to me. That Dinner sailed right past it with a "dumb" rating did exactly what was intended for it to do, which is to showcase his lack of any regard or respect towards these people's lives. He doesn't care.

    See this, Dinner? This is the guy who is backing you up. Look at the incredible lack of comprehension in his post. See the amazing inability for him to grasp concepts such as empathy. This is the guy who sees your posts and says "yep, this is true!"

    Chill folks.

    Let's step back and look at why there's a dead child. There are quite a few perspectives, but I'll offer up a new one.

    Syria fell into chaos due to a laundry list of historical problems. Way too many of them started trying to kill each other, reducing many of its cities into vast, bombed out rubble, while roving gangs of angry males turned vast stretches into dangerous wastelands. Millions fled to refugee camps in neighboring countries, or were internally displaced. Some start trying to flee to Europe, where they can get free housing in a nice climate, along with food and other social safety net supports. Then Germany and some other countries, feeling all emotional, offer to let them in. It's like a bank giving out free money. A child died in the resulting stampede, and horrified people are blaming the bank for not handing out money fast enough.

    Strange how things shapeshift, change names, and fill old voids over time.
    Dead baby pictures for emotional shock use to be a pro-life Christian right thing.
    Now the left does it?
    Was the elixir of darkness drunk all at once, like in "the night of the Doctor", or was it a slow i.v. drip of corruption?

    No, John. Reality isn't remotelt like that. Try playing the ball and not the man. 80% multigenerationally unemplyed, 70% high school drop out rate, kids declaring what they want to be when they grow up is a welfare recipient. Do you have anything to say about those or can we expect more "look at the shiny" out of you?

    That image that I posted is truly awful. It really is terrible. I remember the first time I saw it. I couldn't do anything but stare at that poor, dead child, laying in the sand. It shook me to the core. It was devastating. It was a sign that we, as human beings, had made a terrible mistake somewhere. I remember reading a post on Facebook, with that picture, that said they were glad, and that it was one less mouth to feed. They were overburdened, there was no room. The sentiments as stated were atrocious in every way, something sentient, thinking beings should never say about what I was seeing in that image, and yet there it was. I see those same sentiments coming from Dinner.

    He can hate that I'm not posting statistics, or rebuttals, but what rebuttals would I have to offer? What do you say to someone who is absolutely firm in their hatred of these people? He called them parasites; He called them uneducated, and lazy. I posted that picture, hoping he'd see it and at least stop for a moment, even if it was nothing more than "that is awful, but..." yet what I got was a "dumb" rating, and nothing. He doesn't give a shit about these people's lives, or their deaths, he just doesn't want them in his backyard; He doesn't want them taking from his taxes.

    I hear these thoughts expressed all of the time, mostly from people who are directing them towards black people, or Mexicans. They need to learn the language, they need to get off the government tit, they need to go back to where they came from. I hear it all of the time; utterly ignoring the sheer hell of what these people traverse just to get here. They're less than human to people such as this; they're not worth thinking about, worrying about, or even mourning when they die. All of the facts and figures in the world won't move a person if they've already decided that these people are less than human. Emotionalism gets a response, so I give it. I was hoping compassion, and empathy would get a response, but the response I got was just more of the same; a total disregard of the human cost in favor of the inconvenience levied against one's idea of economic parity. You can't argue against that. You can't. So I didn't.

    You're starting to sound like me before one of my old meltdowns.
    Perhaps a break is needed?

    Not really. They only care about fetuses, not dead babies. Once they're living and breathing and MIGHT COST THEM AN EXTRA PENNY A YEAR, they should die.

    It's not as if they can see their way clear to "Hey, what if this kid grows up to be the next Einstein?" No, no, no. They all need to drown because Reasons.
