RE: July 6 and rumor

["Tom Hansen" <thansen@moscow.com>]

Greetings Visionaires -

I believe there is an old saying that fits this topic very appropriately.
It goes something like this:

They came for the Catholics.
I did not fight them for I was not Catholic.

They cam for the Poles.
I did not fight them for I was not Polish.

They came for the Jews.
Again, I did not fight them for I was not Jewish.

Finally, they came for me and there was nobody left to fight them.

Just a thought,

Tom

Dan-

Interestingly enough, that is the "tactic" used with the gay community.
If we just ignore those homosexuals, they'll go away.  Our rally is more
to keep up with the visability in the community, not only in response to
Phelps, who may or may not actually come.

Refuses to be ignored,

Daniel
