> At least 140 Europe-bound migrants drowned off the coast of Senegal when their boat caught fire and capsized, marking the deadliest shipwreck recorded this year, the UN migration agency said on Thursday.

> The boat carrying 200 people sank a few hours after leaving the fishing town of Mbour, 100 km south of the capital Dakar, on Saturday, the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) said.

> Video shared on local media showed a rescue boat of local fishermen approaching a thick column of dark smoke in the open ocean, as people swam frantically towards them.

I like the sentiments of your enthusiasm, but you can't put out oil fires with water. What the article describes is a diesel fuel leak that caught fire in the engine compartment, which is likely what caused the black smoke everyone saw.

Black smoke is created by burning black people. It's science.

I know, it's just typical that they never check anything properly. They pay stupid amounts of money for the worst smuggling ever.

140? That's what I'd call a good start.
