The Trigger
They didn't pull the trigger
They loaded the gun
They didn't make the cuts
They sharpened the knife
They didn't shout for it to stop
They stood and watched
They didn't try to intervene
They didn't call for help
They didn't stand in opposition
They sat idly by
They didn't speak against
They pretended not to see
They didn't tighten the noose
They provided the rope
They didn't throw the punches
They built the ring
They didn't pull the trigger
They are guilty as sin
