Ted Rall for April 09, 2012
Transcript:
First they searched our cars and dug through our trash, but I didn't speak out because I had no worries. Then they felt us up at the airport, but I didn't speak out because I had no shame. Then they listened to our phone calls and read our emails, but I didn't speak out because I had no secrets. Finally they strip searched and finger-raped everyone they arrested, including for minor offenses. I screamed.

States’ rights, judicial restraint, personal liberty, fair elections. Which of these Republican credos does anyone think they still believe in? And while we are at it, the 2nd Amendment allows guns for States’ militias, not for any wack job from Tulsa.

This seems to be a take off on first they came for the Jews, but I didn’t speak out because I’m not Jewish, then they came for the mentally ill, but I said nothing because I was sane.And 2 other cases. This strip is good to help remind us of the slippery slope.
