So sad, yet so true.

Instead, a captain who actually tries to rescue these people is facing no less than 20 years in prison. You'd think it's a bad joke, but alas...

The problem is, as a sailor, how should I determine whether people drowning are refugees or not?

Usually, it is the duty of sailors to help everybody at sea. This sets a very bad precedent. Shall sailors now ask for passports and depending on that let people drown?

I would like to see some politician work on solutions to prevent people from having to flee their home country.
