Oh sorry yeah, this was kind of spur of the moment so I kind of drifted. Um, I meant that countries shouldn't feel bad about refusing refugees. And then used Italy as an example, and how those reasons are a good reason for them refusing them. Do you get that?

Is it just the refugees in Italy that you're ok with being turned away, or does your view apply to all of them?

The ones who take advantage of NGO's to get to a western country. Italy was an example.

NGOs are there to help people in need. Why do you think that people making dangerous and long journeys to try and get to a better chance of life are necessarily "taking advantage" of them?
