Problem is that we don't know who is fleeing because of:
1. war
2. need to perform acts of terrorism
3. want to find better job
We definitely don't want guys from the 2 group, and probably don't want the ones form the 3rd (they can use a traditional application for visa or something like that).
Moreover the problem is that most of the fleeing are young, healthy males, which is quite suspicious, if you fear war you should get your wives, kids, parents out sooner than later.
On the other hand groups 2 and 3 will mostly contain young, healthy males.
That's why (probably most) people in EU would prefer the stance that Australia made to illegal immigrants (the "No Way" campaign).
Another point is, why they are fleeing to countries that have completely different culture, they could as well go to ones that have similar (middle east or african ones).
- prawn 11y agoI think unattached young males will generally find it easier (physically) to flee. Stronger, fewer dependents. If they do have a family, many are trying to establish themselves before bringing a family over through safer means. I know if I'm relocating my family (even if just arriving at a train station on holiday and trying to find accommodation for the night), I'm the scouting party ahead of the rest. It is dozens of times harder doing that with a full family.
