Alan Kurdi's death was relentlessly used to shame white people who wanted to preserve their nation and safeguard it from invasion.

The murder of #EmilyJones, a direct result of that invasion, has been attributed to a "random attack" with the Somali murderer's identity concealed.
And while the media insisted we all see Kurdi's lifeless body so we'll feel guilty by proxy for his death, now that we know his death was caused Turkish human traffickers, that part of the story won't receive anything more than a passing mention.

In a few years, most people will remember the drowned boy being a result of having a border and will know nothing of his real cause of death.

#EmilyJones won't be remembered by most of those same people, and most of those who do remember her won't know who killed her.
