Question for Stephen Miller. Will the immigrants' "serial numbers" be branded, like during slavery? Or old school Nazi tattoos, like at Treblinka?

I bet he’ll make them pay for their tatoos

“But we’re getting the criminals out, and we’re going to do that fast, and we know who they are, and the local police know their names, and they know their serial numbers,” Trump said. “They know everything about them.”

Donald Trump’s immigration threats are getting even more disturbing.

They already do, once they’re arrested. All sorts of numerical identifiers.

I was 18 when I first saw someone with a “prisoner number” inked on their forearm; a tattoo forced on them at the beginning of brutal dehumanization and horrors in the German Nazi concentration camps. I would see many many more, and would hear their stories as survivors of man’s inhumanity to man. 😓

“Prisoner numbers in the system of German Nazi concentration camps
The prisoner numbers have become a synonym of dehumanization that struck the deportees of the concentration camp. These numbers were to serve efficient "management" of camps, performed by the SS teams. Within the whole system of "state concentration camps" of Ill Reich, there was no a single rule of ascribing the numbers to the prisoners. Usually, there were subsequent numbers issued for the newly arrived prisoners (as it was in KL Auschwitz). In some camps (e.g. in KL Gusen or KL Buchenwald) the numbers of the deceased were ascribed again. In such cases, one number could belong to one or even three persons.
Prisoners transported from one camp to another obtained a new number every time. The number was used instead of last names on every day basis, as the spelling was often ambiguous, causing fuss in the documentation.”

Serial numbers? You don’t say!

What a visionary. Surely there wasn't anyone else in history who gave an unwanted group of people serial numbers that we could compare to Trump.
