When they came for immigrants, I, not being one, remained silent.
When they came for black or darker-skinned people, I, not being one, was quiet.
When they came for refugees
When they came for the homeless
When they came for marijuana users
When they came for liberals or Democrats
When they came for the free press
When they came FOR ME, there was no one left who might speak for me.
“Rescue those being led away to death …
If you say, “But we knew nothing about this,” …
Does not he who guards your life know it?
Will he not repay everyone according to what they have done?”
(Quote from Proverbs 24:11,12)
