First they shot the young black teenager

But many did not speak up, because they were scared of young black teenagers too.

To many of the wolves in sheep's clothing people that supported GZ, because of our "gun rights" pray tell, how long until the beast that has been freed tonight starts gnawing on your flesh? The right wingers that thought GZ had a right to feel threatened by TM feel threatened by a lot of other people too:

They think Gays are a threat to their way of life,
They feel Women that are not under control are a threat,
and yes, even if you are a white liberal, a blue dog conservative that makes Hillary look like Bernie Sanders, they consider YOU a threat.

All it takes is for the cops to look the other way,
and for a jury of idiots to either be led down a line of BS, or simply enact the malice in their heart.

Guess, what, just as they cheer for this verdict, they will cheer freeing whoever shoots you!

and just in case you wonder where I got the thread title:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_they_came%e2%80%a6

"When the Nazis came for the communists,
I remained silent;
I was not a communist.

When they locked up the social democrats,
I remained silent;
I was not a social democrat.

When they came for the trade unionists,
I did not speak out;
I was not a trade unionist.

When they came for the Jews,
I remained silent;
I wasn't a Jew.

When they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out."

and before people start throwing the "ewww, you made a Nazi comparison" thing, sometimes, the shoe does fit, and there are plenty of "good Germans" in Florida, and around the nations.
