The portion of the Pastor Martin Niemöller quote you posted is very deep in respect to this discussion. I am just curious what you meant by posting it here. It can be taken many different ways and I'm just wondering what you meant.

For those who don't know, Niemöller, was a pastor in Germany during the rise of Hitler. He supported Hilter but disagreed with some parts of Hitler's beliefs. When he became outspoken and quit going along with Hitler's murderous control of the country, Niemöller was imprisoned. He was released from a concentration camp by the Allied Forces and went on to be a pacifist and very controversial during the Vietnam War.

Here is the entire quote:

"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."
