In Malibu they came first for the sports fields, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a sportsman. Then they came for the playhouses, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a child. Then they came for the unpermitted structures, and I didn’t speak up because I thought they were grandfathered. Then they came for the old timers, and I didn’t speak up because I was a newcomer. Then they came for me, and by that time no one was left to speak up.
