When They Come for the Smaller Groups. . . .
The pattern is clear: Since the American public is too large an elephant to eat, it must be subdued in small bites: black inner city kids, bikers, off-the-gridders, Christian activists, gun-owners, etc. Every time, the group must be small enough and marginalized enough so that the general population find it easy and safe to disengage.
And the tactics is successful. Even with those people who are otherwise anti-statist. In a conversation, I asked a friend of mine the following questions:
Here’s my Eastern European question to you:
If tomorrow the politicians in DC decide to ship you and your family to the concentration camps, which one of the following people is most likely to be the one loading you on the train?
1) a biker;
2) a DC politician;
3) a local cop.
The question is very important, and you should have an answer. A denial in the form of it-can’t-happen-here is not an answer. And your answer will show how much you understand reality.
And, the other question is: If you decide that enough is enough and decide to resist the government, which one of the people above will be the first to join you?
The questions didn’t register with him. And he believes he is “anti-statist.” Government propaganda works.
As to me, I have enough experience to know: When the government comes for the smaller groups, it’s clearing its access to you. If you support the government – or even if you remain silent and passive, because you are not a biker, or a young black male, or a Branch Davidian, etc., you are digging your own grave.
When they come for you, others will remain silent and passive because they are not you. There will be no one to speak out for you. And yes, it can happen here.
