As a general rule, I loathe both Holocaust and slavery comparisons.

Hamid, a 56-year-old Muslim flight attendant attending a Trump rally in Rock Hill, came to her feet and stood silently as Trump equated refugees from Syria with Islamic State terrorists. She was wearing a hijab and a blue T-shirt that said, "Salam, I come in peace."
What Mr. Pitts ignores is that this was a private rally paid for by Trump and his supporters. They came to hear Trump and not this sanctimonious twit.
Now here is a true example of Hitler like fascism being expounded by our government:
"Now obviously this is a country that is based on free speech, but when it edges towards violence, when we see the potential for someone lifting that mantle of anti-Muslim rhetoric - or, as we saw after 9/11, violence directed at individuals who may not even be Muslims but perceived to be Muslims, and they will suffer just as much — when we see that, we will take action," - Loretta Lynch Attorney General
This difference is private and government action.
Never confuse Leonard Pitts with the facts.
Yeah right.
She was wearing a yellow Jew’s star, the one that the Nazis forced the Jews to wear in WWII prior to sending them to the gas chambers.
What incredible insult coming from a person espousing an ideology that wants to destroy Israel and kill Jews.
She tries to hide her rabid anti-Semitism by clothing herself under the guise of a suffering Jew, and disguising the purpose of her attendance to the rally (which was to disrupt it) with the words: I come in Peace.
What? Does she think we are stupid? I took it as a very loud and personal insult. A double insult.
Researching more into it, her actions turn out to be even more horrifying.
It turns out that the Nazi’s just borrowed the practice of brandishing the Jewish population from the Islamic world, as per Wikipedia:
The practice of wearing special markings in order to distinguish Jews and other non-Muslims (Dhimmis) in Muslim-dominated countries seems to have been introduced by Umayyad Caliph Umar II in early 8th century.The practice was reissued and reinforced by Caliph Al-Mutawakkil (847–61), subsequently remaining in force for centuries.[2][3] A genizah document from 1121 gives the following description of decrees issued in Baghdad:
Two yellow badges [are to be displayed], one on the headgear and one on the neck. Furthermore, each Jew must hang round his neck a piece of lead with the word Dhimmi on it. He also has to wear a belt round his waist. The women have to wear one red and one black shoe and have a small bell on their necks or shoes.[4]
