Yes, they should let anyone in the world traipse thru their countries. Europeans should have patrol boats sending these illegals back to the Middle East / Northern Africa before they ever step foot on European soil.
Cant the migrants just be flown to Germany using military transport aircraft?
They should fly them back to where the migrants came from. If an American tried to illegally enter Europe, I would be flown back to America. I don't understand why Europe has opened its borders to Muslims but not other nationalities. Seems racist to me.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but the idea behind creating Schengen must have been that people from Schengen member countries can move freely, but this freedom wouldn't extend to illegal migrants without papers, who run down fences and force their way through while yelling allahu akbar. Schengen can work only then when the outer borders are secured, it can't work when it is a walk through alley to whoever wishes to pass through. And since Greece is just a big pile of ... it is totally justified that its neighbors set up fences.
I don't suppose the current situation was imagined when Schengen was proposed.
Wasn't the idea to let Europeans travel freely through Europe?

FYI, the Schengen clauses did not even take such a current situation into consideration, and all EU countries agree upon that free travel should be reserved for EU citizens only.
Though the old mantra still being parroted that Merkel and for example Sweden are welcoming all with open arms, it's simply not true. Both countries are thinking furiously how the influx of refugees and golddiggers can be halted or stopped completely, at the same time when they are stepping up deportations. There are even re-instablished border checks between Sweden and Denmark which were abolished in 1954, predating Schengen with decades!
