Come on and just answer/debate the freaking question...

Is conscription or the apprehension thereof a legitimate grounds for emmigrating and seeking refuge abroad? Should the same be a reason for a host country to grant refuge?

We don't know whether the shop owner was a refugee or an immigrant. I'd bet that he is an immigrant given that he had enough money to set up his own shop.

As far as immigration goes, the question is usually what they can provide to a country rather than why they are leaving their country.

If the guy was a refugee, I think his status is valid. If he was drafted into the Turkish military he would likely have been forced to kill his own people.

If he lied, who gives a sh!t. He's got his own business. He's paying taxes and he probably employs other people who pay taxes and make other contributions to society.

You really don't know?
It's basically meat. Usually in kebab restaurants it is actually döner kebab (which means "revolving meat"), because the meat is in a skewer, revolving constantly, slowly. The döner kebab here in Finland is usually a mixture of lamb, cow and pig...

[Provost Harrison]

But the question is, what parts of lambs, cows and pigs?

[aaglo]

Now, lemmesee the ingredients....

here: "lamb's testicles, cow's corpus callosum and pig's spleen"

*barf*
I'll never eat kebab again....*gurgggll*...
