Hilter's Germany

The way that the persecution of the Jews escalated so rapidly, is mind-boggling! It started off as revoking certain privileges, which was wrong in the first place, but then is got progressively worse. I mean, they not only had to give up their practices and businesses, but if they were married to an "authentic" German, then you, if you were a man, were sent to jail, then to a concentration camp. They were forced to have special "Jewish" names and stamps on their passports. They had to have cards that they had to show, no matter what, wherever they went. AND that wasn't even the worst of it, everyone already knows what happened after things got REALLY bad. You, even if you had never heard of the Holocaust, could see where the gradual steps were headed towards. Death and lots of it.
