17 of the ‘real people drowned while trying to reach a better future.

They are real people. They all had real reasons for having to risk their lives. They are not just ‘Refugees’. Who knows what terrors they were fleeing. They have families, friends ….. and they had a life with dreams.

I’m an atheist and I feel for them. It seems that many ‘religious’ people really don’t take on the message of their own religion.

Pics of 17 of the refugees drowned in the Med a few weeks ago. I think they deserve to be recognised and remembered as people rather than bedraggled bodies wrapped in rags washed up on a beach. Do pass it on.

I don’t even know what their names were. I’d list them if I could.
