I guess I think that conversations naturally evolve and progress & this is acceptable?I admit I am not an 'emotionally driven' person. I am a 'factually driven' person. So if this thread was intended just for the emotional expression, I will bow out,I guess I just find the facts helpful too in guiding rhe conversation.

I think it was emotionally driven and maybe you should bow out? I don't know! That's up to you really but you can always start a thread for fact driven people - it'll probably turn to ****e like this one nearly did but that's the nature of the hub!
I know that personally I'm talking about Syria in this thread.

What exactly are you wanting from everyone? Plenty of us have been participating in a conversation and providing links with the knowledge/facts as we understand them. Perhaps if you have specific way you want the conversation to go then you should start a spin off.

[QUOTE=SixtiesChild;8285601]I believe they are not part if the UN convention which take refugees so they pretty much do not care. I have read that they do take in refugees but pretty much work them as cheap labour and these people have no rights and can be deported etc. Which is why they do not flee there (if that is the case I get why they don't want to go somewhere else they are persecuted) but I could also be wrong.
Also, re: detention centres/criminals etc it sits wrong with me that essentially we put everyone in a 'prison' assuming they are guilty rather than innocent. And how are we to know the criminals are bad people? Do we differentiate those that are punished by their governments and imprisoned for nothing they have done?
I keep thinking that when it comes to law/justice everyone is innocent until proven guilty (yeah I have been watching law and order while sick lol) but for refugees it seems th e opposite...

Perhaps there's been a misunderstanding. I don't disagree with you. All I'm saying is that thise who have been through hellish experiences may need more help upon arrival than your father did as they may find things to be more difficult...?
Not trying to be argumentative.
