A couple of Quotes
From “Duncan S” on the NO2ID forum, a variation on Pastor Martin Niemöller’s well known piece:
First they banned hunting, but I said nothing because I live in a town.
Then they banned smoking, but I said nothing because I don’t like the smell.
Then they banned Freedom…….
And the final lines of Dylan Thomas’ Do not go gentle into that good night:
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Sums up how I feel at the moment.

I’ve been working on a Niemuller variant for ages. Never got it finished.
That’s pretty much the exact style I was doing as well, only I started with Asylum seekers (first they went for the asylum seekers, but I did not speak out for they were all bogus).
Ah well, at least someone has done it. Getting the links for it would’ve been a pain.
I just emailed my local organiser for No2ID, about time I finally started doing more than just writing about it.

Joni Mitchell:
Don’t it always seem to go
That you don’t know what you’ve got
Till it’s gone?
