Refugees

I don't say this lightly, but the images and descriptions of the dead bodies in the convention center and on the streets remind me of the way my grandparents described the state of some of the bunkers in the woods that they lived in (if you can call it that) while they were fleeing the Nazis during WWII. Watching the videos of people evacuating the Gulf Coast stuffed into any vehicle that they can find reminds me of the evacuation of the refugees in Europe after WWII.
