Legalizing Tyranny Redux:

[alfreda89]

Let's all send our senators this quote. Maybe they'll finally get it?
Probably not. No gonads at all...

"They came for the unpatriotic, and I didn't object -
For I was not unpatriotic;
They came for the dissenters and activists, and I didn't
object -
For I wasn't a dissenter or an activist;
"They came for the Communists, and I didn't object -
For I wasn't a Communist;
They came for the Socialists, and I didn't object -
For I wasn't a Socialist;
They came for the labor leaders, and I didn't object -
For I wasn't a labor leader;
They came for the Jews, and I didn't object -
For I wasn't a Jew;
Then they came for me -
And there was no one left to object."

--- Martin Niemoller, 1892-1984, a Protestant pastor in Nazi Germany
