There is no comparison unfortunately migrant boats with corrupt pilots and severely overloading boats with families looking for a better life will most likely continue
The Titanic had many of these migrant people also…Titan sub had no sonar and no hydraphon and no certification This sub lost power on a previous dive The Titanic was 100 percent preventable accident a coal fire was the real reason the Titanic sunk …just like the Sub and migrant boats all preventable tragedies…
Migrant boats is a regular occurrence, as long as these young men,try to go to a country illegally .
The Titan , tourist sub,isn’t something that happens too often.
Both couldn’t have been avoided .
Infiltrators should be treated like this. Greece took a very good decision.
I would like to say to all the peace loving countries that learn something from Greece.
The tragedy in Greece is something that unfortunately has repeated itself over and over again in the past decade. Ships of migrants have sunk before in the Mediterranean trying to reach Spain, Italy, Greece, etc. The lost submarine and possible implosion was something you almost never heard about. People have just become desensitized to the former and news outlets know that.
I have been thinking about this. The people on the boat which sank of Greece were promised a better life by people smugglers. Some spent all their life savings. And I'm saying this without judgement, because only they know how desperate they were for a better life. The people on the submersible were also promised a once in a lifetime experience. They were both sold dreams which turned out to be nightmares. The difference is one of motivation and desperation.
This is heartbreaking. God be with these precious souls. 🙏
Enough with the GD equity speech, doesn’t anyone ever get tired of hearing the same after school special?
But high levels of immigration can put stress on the budgets of state and local governments. States and cities with large numbers of immigrants often have to invest more money in public education and other services immigrants receive than they collect in taxes from those populations.
Less for the taxpayers
"And then there was that other one." lol. You mean to tell me 250 people went missing, and it's barely being talked about on the news??? This is why I don't watch news I find information out in other ways.
Why did tragedy not get the same coverage as the titan. Why cause their skin was brown or because they were immigrants. Either way this shows racism and favoritism. My condolences to they're family
One set of ppl can pay their rescue bill if found alive the other set of ppl can’t.
Honestly it's not that unfair. After that tell us the names if the fallen, will you or anyone else besides family know them or look them up after a 1 week. 3 millionaires and 2 billionaire's paid 250k to go under the sea on a mini soda can and BLEW UP. That's gonna be American news. I'm sure Indonesia's news was all over it but he serious, they were going to Italy 9 days ago and we all knew the fate if the supposed missing that same day. There was no mystery even tho smart people knew the people in the Titan were already gone.
Because people like suspense.
God bless Poseidon
Enjoy your 72 hoors
Just like the sub… play stupid games. Win stupid prizes.
If these people had tried travelling via legal means then this wouldn’t happen. Unlucky.
I don't care.
At the end of the day everyone had a choice and everyone took a risk.
They’re called invaders, illegal immigrants too bad karma took care of them.
