A website made light of the refugee crisis and Paris terror attacks by ranking 'hot' Syrian women

No.

Just no.

This (genuine) post from the Daily Caller - a politically conservative website set up by Fox News host Tucker Carlson - is apparently in response to US governors responding to the Paris attacks by stating they will no longer resettle refugees.

Someone genuinely thought it would be a good idea to publish a list of Instagram pictures of supposedly Syrian women who are apparently attractive enough to be granted refugee status.

It is so ill-judged, and offensive on so many levels to such a great extent, that we don't think the first amendment even applies.
