If you know any of these people, then try to do the right thing

Take them aside, and for their sake more than that of anyone else, try to help them understand why they are damaging themselves with their uncivilised sentiments, why their way of thinking is really bad and not just merely wrong, and why some things should not be said even in private let alone in public by anybody who claims to be civilised and living in a civilised society.
I won’t say their thinking and remarks are inhuman. They are only too human. That is precisely why civilisation has evolved as a system to protect us from each other and to make living with each other slightly more tolerable.

Maybe not inhuman, but certainly abominable in it’s etymological sense; away from humanity.
This is what you get when their leaders (mostly likely PL) act on political whims and conveniences rather than be guided by sound moral values (and I am NOT referring to religion or religious values).
What has Joseph Muscat done to try to get these people to think civilized? Or is his coalition with Norman Lowell deeper than we think?
The PM and the Labour government are to blame for this type of attitude by our younger generations towards people who are different from us.
The ‘they and us’ notion they use with regards to the PN has now spilled over and has sank in the mentality of those who support Labour and who see a threat in anyone who is different from them.
These are the type of young people who are at home with Muscat and Labour. Taghna Lkoll become Taghna Biss – as long as you don’t come up with 650,000 euros and buy a Give-away-Passport from the PM.
A good mix of in-breds, xenophobes coupled punctuated by illiteracy and ignorance.
All these vicious people share a particular trait. They spit venom on other (black) people’s bodies but dote on animals – just like Hitler, in fact.
This is Deborah Frendo, who features in that screenshot saying that people drowning to death are better off than animals dying by halal slaughter:
https://www.facebook.com/deborah.frendo.3?ref=ts&fref=ts
Actually, I think she is implying that had they survived and made it to Europe, “we” would have been at risk of being slaughtered “halal way”. That was my interpretation.
I have developed the masochistic habit of visiting the Facebook group “Daqshekk ghall-immigrazzjoni illegali f’Malta” on a regular basis. The filth pervading the page’s wall helps keep me grounded and acutely aware of how I never want to become and thankful for what I am and how I think.
What strikes me every time, is the underlying, often misguided fear which motivates most posts. I’ve never been able to come to terms with where it comes from and how we can be so different, especially when it concerns human lives.
Deborah Frendo is an animal obsessive. Immigrants can drown, especially if they’re black, but don’t you dare kill an animal by slitting its throat.
I disagree with your interpretation.
Deborah Frendo meant exactly what she said: death by drowning is easier than death by halal slaughter. That the former involved people and the latter involves animals is relevant. She ranks animal lives above the lives of black migrants.
The dead were a) immigrants and b) black. To her it follows that they were Muslim and therefore guilty – in her view – of endorsing halal slaughter.
Ending halal slaughter was Arlette Baldacchino’s primary electoral pitch. It’s right there on her online campaign meme. Not uncoincidentally, Baldacchino sold herself as a woman “with a son and many pets whom she loves dearly.”
When a racist electoral candidate anthropomorphises her pets and ranks her own son alongside them, what hope is there that other animal obsessives with Hitlerian priorities will talk any sense?
Ladies and gentlemen, Deborah Frendo

How do you know that these people “dote” on animals? Do you know them?
I am truly shocked.
That people can be so indifferent to the loss of life, or to others pain and suffering is so sad and cruel.
Where has it all gone wrong for them? Is it their environment? How they were brought up? A lack of education?
I am at a loss as I firmly believe that compassion is one of the traits that differentiates humans from animals.
Why is this compassion shown to other Maltese, or animals but not to immigrants? Are they even aware of what they are saying and thinking?
Give me an illegal immigrant any day rather than one of these fools.
Muscat’s responsibility cannot be put aside.

He stoked it, they’ll use it: Unemployment is not Muscat’s problem.
Just take a look at the Facebook page of one of them. No wonder he likes Lega Nord.

Kenneth Desira used a Swastika as his profile picture last January 1st. Great way to start the new year.

Thankfully, I don’t know any of these heartless people. Shame on them. How vile can they be.
When society loses its moral fibre, it become soulless, similar to animals.
Nafu ezatt fejn hu iz-zibel…
Condemnable comments indeed, But I’m sure they hardly mean any harm. If you had to hand them over a remote control button knowing they would be instantly killing an immigrant (Button Button – Arthur C. Clarke), I’m sure they would not do it.
It is the frustration of knowing that Malta (Mediterranean countries in a way) is being left to fend to itself in this humanitarian crisis.
What crisis? A few hundred immigrants and we call it a crisis.
In spite of our pretensions, we Maltese have been living in a bubble if we think this is a crisis.
You think too highly of human nature to say that no one would kill an immigrant. Many would, and would relish the experience.
Why do you imagine so many voted for Norman Lowell, a fascist racist who wants to shoot immigrants at sea, starve ‘inferior races’, and lynch any journalist who criticises him and his recklessly irresponsible, uninformed lunatic holocaust-denying, Jew-hating ideology?
All these dead people are unknown to us but they are dear to their parents, wives, siblings and children.
It is a shame that there are people among us who speak in such a way about other human beings.
And what are the immigrants taking from you, Ms Sina Spiteri?
Sina Spiteri doesn’t say what she does for a living. She probably doesn’t pay much tax or contribute to the national insurance fund, so she’s a fine one to talk about social benefits.
Do this miserable lot even know that the dubsistence allowance paid to migrants is financed by other people’s taxes? The payments are covered by EU funds and Sina Spiteri certainly is no contributor there.
As far as I know “Brave new world” was just literary fiction – however horrid and frightening.
I never thought that sentiments carried therein could really exist among humans – still less Maltese ‘humans’.
Carmelo Ellul Grima was on a billboard.

Only a catastrophe can bring us to our senses.
Isn’t THE one enough?
I am ashamed on their behalf, and I understand how Joseph Muscat was able to win with a 30+ thousand majority.
That spot of British humour with Malmstrom has certainly let the genie out of the bottle.
