"First they came for the Communists,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Jew.
Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me,
and by that time there was no one
left to speak up for me."

Equality Before the Law Finally Achieved

"But now every American has the equal opportunity to become an unperson if he is declared to be an "enemy combatant," anywhere in America, if only a bureaucrat in the Pentagon wills it and the president rubber-stamps it. The alleged combatant may then be seized and imprisoned indefinitely with no due process. In addition, such administratively declared enemies of the state may, in practice, if not perhaps in established law, be murdered at the will of the president without due process. "
