Refugees from Syria are walking on foot to get to Germany because Germany is the one European state that seems excited for more immigrants. This is perhaps because their population is currently declining while the population of many other European nations is rising.
England offered up asylum for 20,000 people. Germany laughed and said they were ready for 500,000 every year for several years. Well done, UK. Your number looks kinda small. Apparently Germany doesn't need any help.
Hungary has offered police escort for the migrants on their border to help them get to Germany and Austria.
Perhaps what you really need to know is that these migrants have been travelling for a while, even though the media has just reported it. (Thank you photojournalists for making this a news story in the first place.) They are running from Syria and the unrest there for their very lives.
What they desire is peace, protection, and security. Maybe even a chance to start a new life outside of a civil war. And that's what you need to know.
In other news, I said the words "Civil War," so now I'm thinking of Captain America 3.
Also, how about them Bengals? Then again, it was the Raiders. Time will tell.
