Mass drownings at sea are to the EU what mass shootings are to the US.

- It keeps happening.

- And every time it happens, politicians pretend to be concerned, yet keep in place the government policies at the root of the problem.

- So, it keeps happening.

@andrewstroehlein hmzzz this is easy said.Think the blame is more where the boat started. Mass shooting can happen everywhere. Even where guns are banned.

@redegelde @andrewstroehlein A Sea Shepherd captain and crew are being prosecuted for saving drowning migrants on the Mediterranean. Captain Pia Klemp and crew saved about 14,000 lives, and were rewarded with seized vessels and a criminal trial with a 20-year sentence at stake.

It is a truth, universally accepted in law, that when you actively interfere with saving lives, you become guilty for the deaths.
