FIRST THEY CAME …
If we don’t speak for them who will speak for us when only us are left?

Martin Niemöller (1892–1984) was a prominent Protestant pastor who emerged as an outspoken public foe of Adolf Hitler and spent the last seven years of Nazi rule in concentration camps.
Niemöller is perhaps best remembered for the quotation
“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~

That is a great quote. You and I are of a minority and I have no reason to believe that we will not be next.

Horty, For some time now the usual WordPress news-feed does not carry you…at least mine does not. It used to have you prominent & easy to find near the top of the roll!!! Now ACE News dominates it, post after post, & various forms of ACE News services from Live & History!!! I got fed up & went to my “favorites” listing of websites to find you. So much to scream about…worse lately…no wonder suicide is up. I’ll call you first! Ha! Phil

Wow!! Good to know … no wonder my ‘followers’ remain about the same. I don’t get the alert about ‘increased traffic’ anymore.
Oh, well … there are more important things!! Could I be in some sort of ‘list’? I wonder … LOL!!

Horty, Oh, no problem getting you when I scroll down the 100 or so websites that I clicked “Follow” over these Excuse Us…years since starting in 2012. I never look at but a few occasionally. Wow …761 Followers! I’m at 200. When I post….only six times a year!…..I also send a cutezie email to about 145 people on my email address book. Altogether that generates about 200 viewers in the first 5 days after a post. I seem to be averaging 3600 or so a year. Your stats must be wildly high!!! But would you believe my post, “My Vietnam,1970,” from 2014 has had continued success…somewhere over 2000 hits out of my total of 20,000+ hits since I started. I google it & found out why. Because the content is so specific mentioning Cam Ranh Bay, where I was stationed there, Veterans from Vietnam find it! Many comment, some emails & even phone calls!!! It’s like a ministry talking…I mean listening…to these poor guys. Some never put their lives back together as you well know. Phil
