From the comment section:
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.
—Martin Niemöller
So where are we now, and are YOU of they? Something is very wrong, and we who are few should know it and recognize it!
David, i remember when you seemed to understand this.

I understand quite well and continue to write about our current situation as best as I can. That caveat is hopefully apparent to this audience: operational security should never be compromised.
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Who is coming after patriots today? Let me define patriot:
Someone who is willing to sacrifice their life for their country. In their mind, the country and what it represents is worth dying for. Our country was founded under God to be a moral Republic. So whether you agree or disagree, the government is coming for patriots.
How do we classify the “government”? The current federal government is illegitimate but how would I classify them other than Socialists / Communists?
So first the Socialists came for American values, and we did not speak out—because Americans would not defend their values.
Then the Socialists came for the American Christian religion, and we did not speak out—because Americans would not defend their God.
Then the Socialists came for American history, and we did not speak out—because Americans would not defend their heritage.
Then the Socialists came for American culture, and we did not speak out—because Americans would not defend their Western culture.
Then the Socialists came for American patriots, and we did not speak out—because Americans were illegally incarcerated as political prisoners.
I will not apologize for defending the foundational principles of our nation. I will not apologize for disagreeing with endless wars and endless drugs. I will not apologize for being a patriot and a Christian. I will not get down on my knees to support a godless, state sponsored regime.
I just wanted to be clear that I understand that when they come for me, I do not expect anyone to come to my aid unless they are a patriot who shares my values.
