When they pulled the feeding tubes on those in a coma, I did not speak out because I was not in a coma.

When they pulled the feeding tubes on the mentally disabled, I did not speak out because I was not mentally disabled.

When they pulled the feeding tubes on those with birth defects, I did not speak out because I didn't have any birth defects.

When they pulled the feeding tubes on those who were old, I did not speak out because I was not old.

Then when they starved me to death, no one spoke out for me because they were not me.
