I found that image nauseating. I cannot see anything funny about a dead child face down on a beach in shallow water. Am I seeing the wrong image?
Of course. That's the whole purpose of that picture - to work on the emotions of weak people such as yourself. Emotions unlock pity, and pity gets the country shoppers in the West.

The picture is funny, how they resorted to the usage of dead bodies just so they can win campaigns. There is an idiom in Bulgaria: The thief yells "Catch the thief!"

I don't approve death, but I also don't approve the selective display of graphic imagery! Lithuania's suicide rate among children is the highest in Europe, but nobody speaks about those children who suffer in Europe, or the USA, or Canada, or Australia. You all speak about the Middle East. Interestingly enough, why didn't you all speak about the Middle East in the 90s? They were always poor, and they always milked goats and lived in shacks, in complete poverty! Is it modern to feel sympathy for them now? It's trending, isn't it?

And there are borders for a reason. You go on a journey to cross a border illegally, you die, and that's a common karmic situation.
