No, I’m not saying that anyone SHOULD be coming around from the County asking about Bible reading or telling anyone not to hold meetings.
I just said that the ONLY reason I could think of for neighbors to complain, which is how these things usually start, was too many cars blocking up the street. But the number of cars was actually pretty small.
So it really makes no sense.
If there WERE a lot of cars, then there might be some reason to try to work something out to avoid inconveniencing the neighbors. But there WEREN’T.
In other words, I’d tell them to go suck eggs.
First they came for the Pro-Life Catholics and I did not speak out because I was not a Pro-Life or Catholic. Then they came for the Evangelical Home-Schoolers and I did not speak out because I was not an Evangelicalnor nor did I home school. Then they came for the Veterans and the Gun Owners and I did not speak out because I was not a Veteran and I did not own a gun. They kept coming and soon took away many of my neighbors and I stood by and said nothing, I only worried each time that they had come for me, but they did not. Finally there came a time when they stopped coming and I and the few neighbors who were also spared gathered to discuss how relieved we were that the troubles now seemed to be over and how lucky we were not to have been taken away. And we rejoiced that we had been spared until one neighbor pointed out: “They have no need to come for those who are obedient slaves.”
