Resistance See other Resistance Articles Title: The Modern Version of “First They Came” The Modern Version of “First They Came” Posted on July 9, 2011 by Vicki, of the Meek & Robison clans Updated on Monday, July 11, 2011 I received four minutes of fame today when Joyce Riley of “The Power Hour” radio show on the GCN Network read the below poem on the air. It was quite an honor. Click here to listen to the reading, which starts about a minute into the clip of the 2nd hour. (End of update.) The Modern Version of “First They Came” By Vicki Robison First they came for the tax resistors, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a tax resistor and I believed the government when they said that forcing people to forfeit a percentage of their labor was not a violation of their rights. Then they came for the cult members, and i didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a cult member and I believed the government when they said non-approved religions were cults, and all cult members were dangerous. Then they came for the domestic terrorists, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a domestic terrorist and I believed the government’s official story of the Oklahoma City bombing, and that domestic terrorists were everywhere, endangering society. Then they came for the Muslim terrorists, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Muslim terrorist and I believed the government’s official story of 9/11, and that Muslim terrorists were everywhere, endangering the world. Then they came for the “radicals”, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a radical and I believed the government when they said radicals were everywhere, and were no different than terrorists. Then they came for the patriots, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a patriot and I believed the government when they said that patriots are as dangerous as radicals and terrorists. Then they came for the veterans, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a veteran and I believed the government when they said that veterans are potential terrorists, radicals and patriots. Then they came for the natural healers, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a natural healer and I believed the government when they said natural healers were dangerous, radical quacks because they don’t support the pharmaceutical industry. Then they came for the farmers, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a farmer and I believed the government when they said that it was their job to control the food supply. Then they came for independent media reporters, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a member of the alternative media and I believed the government when they said that the only accurate news is reported by government-approved corporations. Then they came for the gun owners, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a gun owner and I believed that it was the government’s job to outlaw the ownership of dangerous weapons. Then they came for the Obamacare resistors, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t an Obamacare resistor and I believed the government when they said that forcing people to pay for health insurance was “freedom”. Then they came for the Christians, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Christian and I believed the government when they said that Christianity was a silly superstition and should be outlawed in a scientific society. Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me in this Orwellian society. ----- Sheep Pee! Real Americans defend the Constitution! Sheep pee on it!
