A Little Poem by Sandralight(f): 1:55am On Aug 13
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
     Because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
     Because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
     Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

This is an old poem but it's really shows what is going on in our society.
Bad things are happening but many people are not saying anything because it isn't happening to them so apparently it's not their problem.

Some years ago, they use to kidnap people a lot in the edge of our town, the area they usually do the kidnapping is known but nothing was done, all they said was that people should avoid that place, don't pass that particular area after 6pm they say.

No solution to the problem because it was edge of the town and many people don't stay there like that, so nobody cares.

Now recently the kidnapping is now taking place all over the town, it's no longer at the edge anymore, if a solution was done when this kidnapping started, maybe by now we won't have this problem.

God will help us in this Country
