        Because people are dying :( Even if you don’t want them coming to your country, it’s still sad that these people lost their lives trying to escape terrible situations

        Well get all your Allies and you go save them. They chose to attempt it, Let them be held accountable for playing stupid games, and winning stupid prizes.

        Their homes are often destroyed by vicious civil wars or coups financed by western governments or corporations. No one tries to cross the Sahara for the hell of it

        So tell me genius, why didn't the plane land and help? Did they do air drops of food and water? Spare me your Nanny state Bullshit. Maybe they should fight against the Government that made them flee? Oh but I bet you support gun control also.

        The Sahara is the size of the United States, and there are many paths taken across it. Supply drops would do nothing. Many of them have fought the government, and have lost. Should they just die? Again, even if you are against them coming to Europe, is it not a sad situation?

        Sad for them, $$ for the AP that did the story and NOTHING else. You are allowing yourself to be steered by #FAKENEWS. So tell me, how much have you "donated" to go save these people? Have you ever Served in the Military? Peace Corps? Surely they would have been better off bowing

        AP is bringing awareness to the issue, and it isn’t the job of the press to fix things, it’s to bring things that need fixing to people’s attention.

        Stop encouraging sub-Saharan Africa to come to Europe, and there'll be less of them dying in the Sahara and Mediterranean.

        . Australia had thousands of innocent men, women and children drowning in its territorial waters because they thought they could claim refugee status. By simply refusing to grant refugees asylum if they came by boat, the drownings stopped. This might work for the Sahara, too.
