You are completely missing the point. Everyone needs it so we will be
ready for the day when everyone needs it.
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 their was no one left to speak for me.
Use the correct order and attribute it, please,
First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out--
because I was not a communist;
Then 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 out for me.
Rev. Martin Niemoller
Also, I would point out that there is a *lot* of disagreement as to what
the correct order is, but this one seems to be closest to historical
accuracy as well. Niemoller, a Protestant, especially didn't care about
the Catholics. He pointed out rather caustically that the Catholics
took care of themselves in Nazi Germany.
