- First they came for the landlords, and I did not speak out--Because I was not a landlord.
- Then they came for the grocery store owners, and I did not speak out--Because I was not a grocery store owner.
- Then they came for the people’s guns, and I did not speak out--Because I was not a gun owner.

"Silence in the face of evil is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, and not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless." ~ Dietrich Bonhoeffer, died in Nazi captivity in April 1945
