Reply #21: WOW! That's what we NEED! [View All]

Most, no almost ALL, people dred situations where they have to make life altering choices. I think we're all about a year or two away from some awfully serious shit.

I just hope that I make the "Right" decisions and I hope my friends here at DU do too.

In that same vein, not giving an answer, but certainly posing the question:

First they came for the Jews
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the Communists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left
to speak out for me.

IIRC there's some people that challenge the veracity (That it's made up?) of quote but it doesn't matter, it's the way things happened in a place just 70 years ago.
