    Tragic image of drowned Syrian toddler highlights human cost of refugee crisis

    Can someone direct me to a fund that is trying to help these people? This is breaking my heart

    “I’m not entirely sure what I can do to help this situation,” she continued. “But I do know that I cannot sit back and pretend that this isn’t happening. [I can't pretend] that that boy washed up on the shore wasn’t once a carefree happy child like one of my own, that there aren’t desperate parents trying to fight for and protect their children at our shores and borders. I will look and see and feel — because someone has to.”

    NSFL warning, maybe

    That's the most horrifying image I've seen in a long time.

    It really makes me feel bad for complaining about BLM. I should be focusing on trying to support ways to help these poor people out.

    I completely agree! Nice to see our Middle Eastern allies doing something for their Arab brothers and sisters.

    You don't have to sell me on the disgusting behavior of the Middle East. Allies or not, I never like their ideology

    This is what War does. Every war we've been involved in has created things like this.

    This is why I'm anti War. I'm already against the potential War with Iran.

    YOU'RE NOT SENDING MY SON!!

    Humans are the most efficient killers on the planet. We kill living things without even trying. When a person flicks their cigarette it goes straight into the ocean.

    It doesn't matter if you're anti-war. It matters if the opposing force is, as well. In Syria, they're not.

    America has plenty of room. Put them all in beautiful central Oregon.

    Sorry, we need all of that room for Spotted Owls, Beavers, Wolves, Elk, Deer, etc. But if Syria has any of those animals they can send them here and we'll be sure to give them homes.
