First They Came...

[cory]

This isn't the original text, but I'm sure you can see how it can be applied....

First they came for the machine guns,
and I didn't speak out because I didn't own one.

Then they came for the assault weapons,
and I didn't speak out because I didn't own one.

Then they came for the pistols,
and I didn't speak out because I didn't own one.

Then they came for me,
and there were no guns left to stop them.

Another quote comes to mind...
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing" - Edmund Burke

That fist quote couldn't have stated it any better.

I've always loved that quote by Edmund Burke
