quoting Pastor Martin Niemöller

I have quoted Pastor Martin Niemöller before and I will again:

“THEY CAME FIRST for the Communists,

and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist.

THEN THEY CAME for the trade unionists,

and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist.

THEN THEY CAME for the Jews,

and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew.

THEN THEY CAME for me
 and by that time no one was left to speak up.”
