Around the time of WWI, my grandmother, a Polish Jew, was living above a tavern with her mother, sisters and brother. Their father had left for the U.S. in order to earn enough money for the rest of the family to follow.
One night her mother was boiling a chicken for dinner when the tavern keeper snuck upstairs and warned that there were drunken German soldiers downstairs making plans to come up with intent to rape and kill. My g grandmother bundled up the children, (my grandmother couldnt have been over the age of 5) grabbed the half cooked chicken and, with the Germans shooting at them, fled to a nearby river and hid. After things seemed to settle down the family began to eat the chicken; but the chicken needed salt. So my g grandmother snuck back to the tavern to get the salt!
The notion of risking life for something as outrageous as salt speaks volumes about how these people had become acclimated to the risks of death.
My grandmother to the day she died remembered that terrifying, cold, dark night, hearing the bullets whizzing by & then eating half raw chicken on the river bank.
The immediate family made it to the U.S. and all led successful lives, but the fate of many of the extended family remain a mystery. When I watch documentaries of the holocaust and see the mass of humanity being led to the ovens I focus on the individuals and wonder if that person was one of my family.

Re: U.N. Prisoner Boxcars in U.S.A.
No can do. It's classified on a need to know basis. Xtra 7834B or higher clearance.polisci wrote:It seems that I have been hearing an awful lot about 100,000+ rail cars outfitted with human shackles lately. Supposedly, capable of detaining and transporting upwards of 15 million US Citizens to various internment camps. They've been spotted at a manufacturing plant in Oregon, a port in Kalifornia, in TX and in N. Carolina. Not to mention all out military exercises aimed at imposing martial law nationwide.
Does anyone more familiar with these disturbing topics care to elaborate?
Please advise, where do you live and what size are your wrists & ankles?
