Editor, Manteca Bulletin,

Just a little history lesson.

What did the good, decent German folks do as the Nazis took over their political system? Nothing they cried shame on these monsters to themselves and their kin. The evil that was taking over loved this. No politician was forced to stand up to the sacrilege that was taking over their government. The Vatican sat by quietly instead of invoking its people to speak out against this evil. The Christian church sat quietly by the wayside until it was too late. First the homosexuals were arrested and driven into the underground. The faithful folks said that’s ok. There evil anyway. Then the poor and those of Jewish decent were arrested enmasse. Well there not Christian or Catholic so that can be overlooked. Then the Catholic and Christian houses of worship were shuttered. Then it was too late the evil that Satan had inflicted upon Germany was in full power.

Are we going to let history repeat itself?

Trump and his goons have already made it obvious they want to shut out the Muslims, and anyone else that disagrees with them. They have started putting children in cages, only stopping when the outcry was loud enough. Look closely, the thousands of children already in cages are still there. The newest detainees are still being held in cages but with their parents. What does that say about us? Will we stand by and see history repeated again. All I ask is ask your minister or pastor about this atrocity. If he refuses to preach against this from the pulpit you’re in the house of Satan and not the Lord. Call or write your representative and demand action.
