A massive, two-hour brawl involving more than 100 Eritrean and Afghan nationals in Calais on Thursday left four teenage migrants in critical condition after being shot. They had been standing in line waiting for food handouts.

Tensions have been high in the French port city since 2016 when authorities demolished a makeshift encampment known as the "Jungle," which hosted thousands of migrants attempting to make their way to the United Kingdom across the English Channel

You know this is all so very predictable but I actually wonder if the Iron Lady ever understood that this is what she was signing Europe up for when she put up the "You'all come, WE LOVE YOU!" sign without talking to anyone else about it, really.
 
You forgot your tagline:

#we used to be better!

If you posted here every time some white people got in a fight and a few were stabbed or shot we wouldn't be calling you a racist. Cherry picking individual cases of violence from the races you don't like then implying "This is why we can't let THOSE people in" makes it obvious what your intentions are.

About 33,000 people will be shot in the US year by people of all races. Calais and France as a whole have a murder rate that is a fraction of ours. Please don't come back with "That's because America is so diverse"

You people who obsess about race certainly gum up the works.

Ditto with your extensive fantasy life imagining the motives of the speakers you hear.






Grow UP.

You literally cherry picked a crime done by black immigrants then implied this is what Europe deserves for letting them in. There is no racism to imply, your entire OP is dripping with it.

"We cant talk about this because I imagine that you have bad motives for wanting to talk about this" is pathetic.

Your teachers surely hoped that you would turn out better than this.

What is there to talk about? Your Op didn't provide any questions or relevant topics to discuss, it's just a cherry picked shooting with a snarky comment about immigrants.

So what's the talking point? Despite immigration from third world countries Europe is still astronomically safer than the US with much less crime? Was that your point?

Then go away.

Better people dont need this much hand holding, I am not in the mood for what you need.

Thatcher was labeled the "Iron Lady" in 1976. In England. This brawl happened a couple of days ago. In France. Two unrelated events.

Haha, you won't even discuss your own topic in your own thread. Feeling overwhelmed or do you just feel stupid now after realizing the crime rate in France is a tiny fraction of that in the US?
