Warnings, fences, and arrests, doesn't matter. Unless it is worse to go than to stay they will go, which leaves shooting not all that far away. These poor people (especially the ones with everything and family with them). This is about as public example of how lies kill people as you will get. There are people in positions of power in the West who should be hanged for this, and those who think ISIS won't take advantage of this are kidding themselves.
