Fight Hate on Your own Street and in Your own Work Place &  Family.
From our readers in Jacksonville Fl. At Christ Church of Peace they received death threats, and their Pastor had to get police protection after starting "Know Thy Neighbor".  www.KnowThyNeighbor.org Public Records of who signed a petition against Gay Marriage. Go to your county then type in your street. Very interesting!!!!
 
 First they came for the Communists, and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Communist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Jew.

Then they came for the Catholics,  and I didn’t speak up,
because I was a Protestant.

Then they came for me, and by that time there was no one
left to speak up for me.

by Rev. Martin Niemoller, 1945
