its sad to see that abuse of the system has led to such a state of affairs where you can't even choose a partner from another country to live in your land. specially when you see the refugee rules being abused successfully while your attempt at legal entry for your wife is made near impossible. this doesn't make sense. refugees from war are normally kept in the nearest safe land in big camps where they have what they need to survive till they can go home, but now we are not doing it like that anymore, with many of these guys not actually qualifying as refugees under the law due to coming from safe lands. on the one hand you want to help, but you have to be realistic, you can't just let anyone come over else you will have over population getting out of hand. so it's seems really weird to see a situation where it's easier to get in by scaming the system then legally entering as a spouse for example.
in the end i have no problem with people coming over, but i do expect them to follow the local laws to a tee. for the rest i don't really care, have seen migrants achieve a hell of a lot, by working hard and having a plan and or even starting companies and employing people, i can respect that. but those that think they are somehow invading or can tell us how to live are not welcome imo. if you want the good things over here you have to follow the rules over here. so for me in the end i think it's about integration. we must not let more people in then can be integrated without changing our society for the worse. no matter how humanitarian you are you have to realize that importing huge amounts of young men from a war zone could potentially be a big problem, many have ptsd etc. reasonable numbers can work, but too many and you are asking for trouble, imo.
