Hungarian police arrest driver of lorry that had 71 bodies inside
Hungarian police have arrested the driver of a lorry found on an Austrian motorway with the decomposing bodies of 71 people, including a baby girl, inside.
It came as the Austrian police confirmed three arrests in the case, following reports from the Krone newspaper that seven smugglers linked to the lorry had been held by authorities in Hungary.
The death toll was raised on Friday from initial estimates of 20 to 50 following the discovery of the remains on Thursday morning on Austria’s A4 motorway between Neusiedl and Parndorf. The truck, which had been abandoned on the hard shoulder of the road near Parndorf, had apparently been there since Wednesday. Austrian police said all those on board appeared to have suffocated and died before they entered the country.
Austrian police said of the 71 dead, 59 were men, eight women and four children, including a baby girl. At a news conference in the town of Eisenstadt, Hans Peter Doskozil, police chief for the province of Burgenland, said one Syrian travel document had been found among the victims but that it was too early to say from which countries the entire group had come.
Bei dem am Donnerstag in Österreich bekannt gewordenen Flüchtlingsdrama auf der Ostautobahn sind 71 Menschen ums Leben gekommen - darunter auch vier Kinder, wie bei einer Pressekonferenz Freitagmittag bekannt gegeben wurde. Bei den Toten handelt es sich um 59 Männer, acht Frauen und vier Kinder: drei Buben im Alter von acht bis zehn Jahren und ein etwa eineinhalbjähriges Mädchen. Die Opfer dürften aus Syrien stammen, es wurde ein syrisches Reisedokument gefunden.

What exactly do you expect American citizens to do about borders in Europe?

Nothing.
Absolutely nothing.
For you, merkans, we don't exist.

You mean it's not our country and not our place to decide whether other sovereign nations have borders or not? Is that what you're trying to say?
Would you be in favor of a birthright citizenship law where any baby born within the Hungarian border becomes a citizen of Hungary regardless of the parents immigration status?

Yes, it is.
Trying to say? I DID say it.

It is not about birthright or about citizenship. That people don't want to be Hungarian.
It is about thousands of immigrants who want to pass through us to EU.
You, Americans are happy of living on the OTHER side of Atlantic. You have only the Mexicans. Another fence..

Then I think you're exactly right. It's your problem. However you decide to deal with it is your countries decision.

No, we have all of Latin America coming through Mexico and a party in power looking to capitalize off the cheap votes and labor at the working man's expense.

Please tell us how you want us Americans to solve your immigration problem for you, and we'll go over and do it.
Thanks.

Hi Dr. Shades !
If and when I have problems (I have more than one...) a site committed to Mormonism would be the last place to find any solution.
I don't seek any solution. THIS case is only something worth to know -- because of its size. 71 death.
