At the end of the day, we are all human - doesn't really matter which country you're from. I don't want to see children (or adults for that matter) starving to death, drowning due to their overcrowded rafts capsizing on their way to my country, or blown apart by bombs.
I'm happy that my government contributes my taxes toward foreign aid, and lets refugees into my country. To help others, who through no fault of their own, have nowhere safe to call home.
Unfortunately my fellow countrymen have chosen to distance themselves from (what I perceive) their responsibilities as a wealthy(ish) society and decided to "Brexit"
Its a shame that America has decided to take a similar course of action and look inwards.
