because they had to flee their house because bombs fell near.

12/ What attitude do people have about refugees who have had to flee
from southern Iran? Do you think that something similar is happening in
Spain nowadays according to the issue of Sirian refugees? Justify your
answer.

They have a bad vision because they think that they take away food,
work ... and only bring prostitution and crimes.
I think that in Spain, which is a country with many immigrants, they have
the right to work, to form a family and to be respected, although there
are people who do not respect them and think the same as the characters
in the comic. It is true that some bring more crimes but I think in a
minority and should be regulated to lower crime.
