Dozens of migrants are thought to have died after their boat capsized in the Mediterranean off the coast of Tunisia.

At least 50 people died in the incident, with 16 survivors, the UN's International Organization for Migration says.

But Tunisian state media report that 70 migrants drowned about 74km (46 miles) off Sfax, south of the capital Tunis.

Tunisian officials reportedly believe the ship set off from Zuwara in Libya.

I have no sympathy for denizens of the Third World. They are a plague upon civilized people.

LOLOLOLOL! I hadn’t seen that. Now that there is too funny. I don’t care who you are.

imagine how funny a skit would be on SNL with this kind of hilarious material - but then I am reminded that SNL isn't a comedy show, it's a hate filled anti-Trump left wing activist program.

Too bad, but that's a win for Europe. Almost a day brightener.

Most migrants migrate to countries who hand out freebies.

Down with all of that. But make sure there’s about 3 tractor trailer loads of chum and beef blood in the water

Sounds as if the migrant boat left port without coordinating their ‘rescue’ with the NGOs which operate ‘rescue ships’ just off the Libyan coast.

Oh well, win some, lose some.
