Smugglers are causing so many deaths! You must read this article about their disregard for life and how its causing so many deaths around the globe! So many are trying to escape war, and the governments of these country are giving these smugglers so much freedom -- Its so sad! You have to read this article to belive it!

Anytime these tragedies happen one can't help but wonder what could've been done to prevent this? The fact that 3,800 are dead is just mind boggling. Drowning continues and its at 90 a week that is just crazy. They have no choice one must assume but surely we can help better those countries? We must do something.

I don't feel empathy for the refugees, who are complicit in corruption and worthless systems of government that lead to their need to flee.  Nor do I think they have any right to do what they're doing.  And every country has every right to keep them out and let them deal with their own situation in their own country.  But I fear the state of our country and the world when these people invade and infest good countries.  The weak and bad infect the good, and too many countries, like Germany, are allowing it to happen.  How disgusted would I be if I were a German citizen and Merkel said Germany would take in one million refugees.  Why not just hand the country over to Syria and these other craphole places and we'll go live on their sand piles?  It's lunacy.

This is a sad story about all of the people trying to flee Syria. It said that 1 out of every 50 people in the country have been killed due to war. I can't imagine living and trying to raise a family in this sort of situation. These people are obviously risking their lives trying to get out but they are also risking their lives staying.

When you read an article like this, you can't help but feel bad for all the people that died. They were all risking their lives to try and find a better life for their families. They were mainly trying to escape from war and poverty but unfortunate events happened and they never made their way. Hopefully they find a better place in the afterlife. It's very unfortunate what happened to them.
