If you flee from oppression and violence, you're welcome in the EU. That much should be clear.

Not everyone is onboard with the idea of giving Russian who flee to avoid mobilisation refugee status.

Well, the EU law is relatively clear on that. You qualify as a refugee when you would suffer "prosecution or punishment for refusal to perform military service in a conflict, where performing military service would include crimes or acts falling within the scope of the grounds for exclusion as set out in Article 12(2)".

That is one disgusting way of justifying that nasty comment.

We need them to fight Putin?

WTF.

I can understand her reasoning, but with that she is basically making the decision for them, which I reject.

Sure, it would probably be better if these men remained in Russia and organized to get rid of Putin. But they would risk their lives doing so, and I can understand most people would rather flee and live.

That is EXACTLY the language used by anti immigrants who make fun of refugees from Syria, Afghanistan and Iraq. It is despicable and truly disgusting to see that people have understanding for this kind of mentality.

I guess, the old Afghan and Syria phobia is now include the russia phobia and treating them as unwelcomed refugees the way baltic stage, Poland and Hungary are doing, not to mention the ones in Sweden and Denmark.

You do know that it's perfectly possible for someone to understand someone's opinion and still disagree with it, right?

I understand Trump?

Does that sounds acceptable for you? How about I understand Poland's anti abortion policies or UK's policy to send immigrants to Etiopia "to save money"?

They used to give me pen, paper and documents for 1.5 hours a day. I wrote to the head of the colony: "I'm dealing with three criminal cases now, I need more time".

I was heard. A new schedule was approved. Now they only give me paper and a pen for 35 minutes a day.

Classic.

We brengen geen offers ‘voor Oekraïne’, we breken met onze Russische energieverslaving omdat we behoefte hebben aan energiezekerheid.

Tijdens de #APB leek #Wilders dit totaal niet te snappen. Maar goed, nuance is nooit zijn sterkste kant geweest natuurlijk. Strooien met pakkende one-liners en het beledigen van mensen met andere ideeën is hem altijd veel beter af gegaan.

Allemachtig... Eerst bouw je een school verkeerd om, breek je hem af en bouw je 'm opnieuw. En dan blijk je 'm weer niet goed te hebben gebouwd.

Schoolvoorbeeld van incompetentie.

Zeeuwse school die eerst verkeerd om stond nu te dicht op straat gebouwd

De school in het Zeeuwse dorp Oost-Souburg die eerder dit jaar werd afgebroken omdat ze verkeerd om stond, blijkt nu te dicht op een straat te zijn gebouwd. De gemeente kijkt nu of en hoe de fout kan worden opgelost, meldt Omroep Zeeland. "Het zou een horrorscenario zijn als de school opnieuw afgebroken moet worden."

When people say they have nothing to hide, let's reply:

* Post your passwords here
* Write down everybody you hate
* Tell the world who you voted for
* List all the videos you watched

- Medical history.
- Sensitive conversations with employers, children, spouses.
- Billing and banking information.
- Purchase information.
- Web search history.
And more...

I need privacy. Not because my actions are questionable, but because 'your' judgement and intentions are.

And it doesn't matter whether or not my communications are weighty or frivolous in nature - they are mine and only for those whom I've chosen to share them with. Not the government's, nor goog's, nor my ISP's, but mine.

Also, what is legal where I live today, may not be legal tomorrow and my discussion of it may incriminate my future self. It has happened in the past many times to others in other places.
