I've watched the video and I do understand why people are scared by it. To be honest my overall thinking lately is that there's an uncomfortable truth we're all ignoring and it always strikes me when I see these videos where crowds of people are swarming like ants;

The world is ****ed for the pure and simple reason that it is grossly overpopulated full stop, that problem gets worse by the second, and there's nothing we can do about it.

I swear the scariest link on the Internet is not an article or a video. It's just this:

http://www.worldometers.info/world-population/

It tells its own story and its all you need to know. IMO the world can comfortably support less than half of that number. And look at it. It just keeps on growing. Horrifying. We are such a plague...

I think Europe is getting to be a very scary place, Something like 9,000 migrants arrived from Africa near Venice last week, the numbers are staggering.

Cherie I know you are Irish...there was a chap on the the Joe Duffy show the other day that was walking through Freedom park in Kilkenny...he and his son were savageley beaten by Irish gangs..The numbers of those who want to leave their own countries to get to where we are is staggering...But ...nobody can deny that..Isn't that human nature to leave and hope for a better life for you and your kids.....


I left South Africa as a Boer ...because of what was happening to us whites..

Have you seen how Italy are struggling. One MP is calling for a referendum. They can't cope. It is all very well people wanting to better their lives but the lives of those in the countries they crash-land in matter too.

True but Italy's fragile economy isn't suffering because of migration! Immigration is the last of its worries.

Yeah i get what you are saying, but you immigrated legally, these people are paying traffickers putting their own and their kids life at risk, more often than not they have to be rescued from over crowded ships, then when they land all they have ahead of them is a detention centre in a country that is stretched trying to cope, I blame the traffickers who are selling an idyll that does not exist, controlled immigration is one thing, what the traffickers are doing is heaping misery on misery

As as aside Ireland, for a country that exported people regularly over the years ican be less than welcoming with people coming in

Cherie we came here legally quite simply because we could....contrary to other opinions we never turned up at Dublin port saying give us a job...Bertie & Co turned up in JBourg during Celtic tiger recruiting us
I get what you are saying about migrants putting their kids lives at risk..I think both you and me Cherie left our home countries to make a better life for our families....but let's face it we weren't being bombed arse over tits
