First they came for the automatic weapons, and I did not speak out--
    because I did not own any;
Then they came for the high capacity magazines, and I did not speak out--
    because I still had my small magazines;
Then they came for the handguns, and I did not speak out--
    because I really mostly hunt;
Then they came for the rifles, and I did not speak out--
    because I'm tired;
Then they came for the shotguns, and I did not speak out--
    I still have my knives.
