A sign I picked up after the protest this afternoon


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
