    “You are always next”

    It’s a phrase I’ve been saying a lot lately.

    People don’t realize that once you start down the path of taking away the fundamental human rights of people you don’t like, that road eventually leads back to your own home. It’s a one way street, so once you start down it, you can’t just stop and you can’t turn around.

    “But you don’t understand! They are the bad guys!” yes, and eventually… so are you.

      “But you don’t understand! They are the bad guys!”

      Y’know, that’s the funny thing. I live in the U.S., and all the people losing their rights seem to be the good ones that are nonviolent and just wish to live their lives.
