If you're going to sit there and make outlandish comparisons to the holocaust and this right now, then you might as well use this picture which every new media outlet plastered all over the web and tv to show how cruel this is. Time magazine even made it the cover of their magazine. This picture of a young girl being ripped from her family and sent to an American concentration camp.

pictures always pack a bigger punch than just words.

I could then start posting pictures from the real holocaust concentration camps. Though I am afraid that might get me in trouble cause the images are troubling.

Actually that post was propaganda. The father of the child himself came out and said that situation never took place. He debunked it himself.

I believe the photo was what we call symbolism.  Meaning, they put a crying baby into a picture with Trump standing and looking down with no compassion as a symbol of what this administration is doing.  Did anyone really believe they stood together to take this picture?
