President Donald Trump's ridiculous travel ban and immigration laws has had a major effect on our country as a whole. I feel it has brought back memories of the Holocaust to many of us.

You probably don't stand a chance of living in these harsh horrible conditions. You tried to use your shawl as protection but to no avail it failed. I bet your heart started racing, probably was sweating profusely and can't take the claustrophobia anymore. Your time in the gas chamber is running out and only have seconds left to live.
