Gee, I wonder when they will finally tell us that the ones responsible are in fact, islamic terrorists. Mark my words HN, this is just the beginning. I wonder when things like this will happen in other European countries. Germany is a likely candidate, as we are currently mass-importing the potential terrorist candidates.

And now, I'll just wait for the downvotes I guess.

To call families fleeing war "potential terrorist candidates"...

Can you see how this is an extremely broad, lazy generalization? What really supports this comparison, other than their religion and colour of their skin?

[vox_mollis]

To the parent's point, support for this generalization comes from the very odd fact that fully 75% of the composition of the refugee families are men, with women and children comprising 12% and 13%, respectively.

I personally don't like this argument. It is not surprising that young men will go first and let their families come safely after. Not all of Syria is a war zone after all.

If course it is, it was meant to be. While my comment represented my thoughts about the whole situation, I also wanted to provoke a little bit.

And yes, "families fleeing war" are potential terrorist candidates. There is quite a possibility of future generations to radicalize. This happens (Europe exports quite some fighters for ISIL) and it will happen in the future, because the foundations are present. The refugees coming here will be mosty the future bottom of the lower class. And being poor, having no perspective and being insecure about ones identity aren't really things thatr you want to experience combined into a single adolescent boy.

And "families fleeing war" are not the only ones coming as refugees. It is also the fleeing fighters of ISIL.

It already has happened in other european countries..

Terrorist attacks of this scale? Care to elaborate? I may have missed something here.

Well, I was thinking a little bit more recently.

The challenge is to separate the legitimate refugees from those with nefarious intent isn't it. :(

[rtz12]

Which is impossible. Look at the situation in refugee camps in Germany. Massive violence because a non-muslim refugee insulted the islam (happened quite a few times now). Christian refugees fleeing from the camps and seeking shelter in churches. Refugees constructing mafia-like structures. All these things happen, and that's just what the mass media reports. Police forces around the country have already been ordered to report less on crimes and violence of refugees so the much feared "right" wont use it as a tool.

We'll be in some deep shit in the coming years.

Yup, as we always have been since we were humans. Sad.
