186. Let that man alone!
Copy !req
187. The object of this course is simple.
Copy !req
188. Clear the tribunal!
Clear the tribunal!
Copy !req
189. You must evade capture by
the pursuing law enforcement officers
Copy !req
190. and reach the flag
by the appointed time,
Copy !req
191. That is to say 10pm on the evening
of the 3rd day from now.
Copy !req
192. You fucking pig!
Copy !req
193. Each one of them,
take them out of here.

motherfucking question!

200. Watch your language.
Copy !req
201. Do you think my language
is immoral?
Copy !req
202. What do you call that shit
you just did, man?
Copy !req
203. What do you call this shit?
Copy !req
204. Give your side-arm to Sepada
and go unlock the prisoners.
Copy !req
205. Were you going to call
for revolution on that television?
Copy !req
206. What do you want me to say?
I told you the truth.
Copy !req
207. The truth as you saw it?
Copy !req
208. I would tell the truth,
Copy !req
209. I would tell the story of black people
like it has never been told,
Copy !req
210. cos you never tell it,
cos they never tell it.
Copy !req
211. I would say what happens
to Chicanos in this country,
Copy !req
212. because the fruit-growers
ain't gonna tell it.
Copy !req
213. And either they or members of their club
buy the time on that television set.
Copy !req
214. I would tell what happens
to people who are poor
Copy !req
215. and uneducated
and automated out of a job,
Copy !req
216. who stand in long fucking lines
talking to little people like you
Copy !req
217. with delusions of power
in unemployment lines all day long
Copy !req
218. to be fucked off because your old man
didn't ball you right last night.
Copy !req
219. Watch your language,
there's a lady in the court.
Copy !req
220. Where?
Copy !req
221. The truth is the fact that
you're devouring your children.
Copy !req
222. The fact that you're oppressing the people
who are powerless in the country.
Copy !req
223. - And what would you do?
- A few of the people are living...
Copy !req
224. Do you want to listen
or do you want to talk?
Copy !req
225. Continue, Mr Brown.
Tell us your message.
Copy !req
226. You don't wanna hear
my message, man.
Copy !req
227. You've spent 50 years
evolving a propaganda system
Copy !req
228. that'll take the truth and change it
into what you want to hear.
Copy !req
229. You don't want to hear shit that
means having to give up something.
Copy !req
230. You don't want it.
Copy !req
231. All you want to do is sit on your fat ass
and draw dividends!
Copy !req
232. Did I react to the names
that you called me?
Copy !req
233. As your people just
reacted moments ago?
Copy !req
234. You called me pig and other names.
Did I react?
Copy !req
235. You're in a different position, man.
All I can do is call you a dirty name.
Copy !req
236. These officers have...
Copy !req
237. strict instructions
not to molest you in any way,
Copy !req
238. or to hinder you from
reaching your ultimate destination.
Copy !req
239. However they will not allow you to leave
the boundary of the course.
Copy !req
240. It has been stated,
and it's a fact,
Copy !req
241. there are more TV sets and cars
owned by black people in the USA
Copy !req
242. than in all of Russia.
Copy !req
243. So what?
Copy !req
244. That shows a very intense interest
Copy !req
245. in the economics of this country,
in your people.
Copy !req
246. They have a standard of living
that's better than any in the world.
Copy !req
247. Hey, man. You can say an identical thing
Copy !req
248. for every animal in the zoo.
Copy !req
249. I'm sure their standard of living
has increased - they certainly eat better.
Copy !req
250. The time is now 9:54 am.
Copy !req
251. At 10:00
you will commence the course.
Copy !req
252. At 12:00 noon,
that's to say two hours from now,
Copy !req
253. the pursuit forces
will be set in motion against you.
Copy !req
254. Today's pursuit force will consist
Copy !req
255. of a unit of the National Guard,
Copy !req
256. part of the tactical riot squad
of a city police department,
Copy !req
257. and three federal marshals.
Copy !req
258. At the 5 de Mayo Congress
Of Chicano Youth
Copy !req
259. the defendant was quoted saying,
Copy !req
260. "To you, I say: Free your communities.
Arm yourselves.
Copy !req
261. "If the pigs comprehend
nothing but force, then use it.
Copy !req
262. "Liberate yourself.
Off the pigs!
Copy !req
263. "Kill the chief pig!
Liquidate the mayor..."
Copy !req
264. Anybody can lift that shit
out of context.
Copy !req
265. You had your chance to speak.
Copy !req
266. Let Agent Donovan finish
his statement.
Copy !req
267. - This is all we have.
- Pig Donovan.
Copy !req
268. This man is calling for violence,
for the destruction of this country.
Copy !req
269. And it's doing more than
just for himself.
Copy !req
270. His people are spreading this
all over the country.
Copy !req
271. In the factory where I work
all kinds of people are reading his stuff.
Copy !req
272. It's all over the place. Mainly
the coloured people are reading it.
Copy !req
273. And he's stirring them up, talking about
legitimate problems that we have,
Copy !req
274. trying to pose
his violent alternatives to it.
Copy !req
275. You talk as if this is
some great civilised, non-violent place.
Copy !req
276. And it ain't. America
Copy !req
277. is as psychotic as it is powerful,
Copy !req
278. and violence is the only thing
that will command your attention.
Copy !req
279. No way, you bastard!
Copy !req
280. This country, this America,
Copy !req
281. was born in violence.
Copy !req
282. Now revolution's a violent thing.
Copy !req
283. Get him! Get him!
Copy !req
284. Bring him back over here.
Copy !req
285. I'm in this place right now
Copy !req
286. because my people, my forebears,
Copy !req
287. were violently brought here,
like this, in chains, from Africa,
Copy !req
288. where they were violently
made to work.
Copy !req
289. It was upon the labour
of their backs
Copy !req
290. that you so violently
wrung out of them
Copy !req
291. that this country
was industrialised.
Copy !req
292. Right away, right at first.
Copy !req
293. This land and all the rest
that belongs to the country,
Copy !req
294. was violently taken
from the Indians.
Copy !req
295. Violently.
Copy !req
296. The time 10:03am.
Copy !req
297. Temperature 91 degrees.
Copy !req
298. Your goal is straight down the river,
move in that direction.
Copy !req
299. Time remaining before the
beginning of the pursuit, 2 hours.
Copy !req
300. Hey, David. Can I have another one
of your cigarettes?
Copy !req
301. You've had cigarettes off me all day.
Copy !req
302. Distance to the United States flag,
Copy !req
303. 53 miles.
Copy !req
304. They made their choice.
Copy !req
305. They could've done
a lot of things,
Copy !req
306. but they chose
to throw firebombs
Copy !req
307. and conspire to violently overthrow
the government.
Copy !req
308. They're doing what they want to do.
I'm doing what I want to do.
Copy !req
309. Over this way, fast!
Copy !req
310. 'You're on your own.'
Copy !req
311. I don't think any of those kids'll
make it anyway.
Copy !req
312. D'you see that one little bastard
take off?
Copy !req
313. That Mexican's the fastest thing
lever seen in my life.
Copy !req
314. Time remaining before the beginning
of the police pursuit,
Copy !req
315. 1 hour and 53 mins.
Copy !req
316. Those kids are running scared.
Everybody's running scared.
Copy !req
317. If they didn't break the law,
they wouldn't have to run scared.
Copy !req
318. Maybe they don't know
what the law is, Captain.
Copy !req
319. Everybody knows.
Copy !req
320. If they don't want
to take the consequences,
Copy !req
321. let them think before they act.
Copy !req
322. In order to provide what is termed
"further motivation",
Copy !req
323. this group have been told
that they will find water
Copy !req
324. half-way to the American flag.
Copy !req
325. That long-haired sonofabitch?
Copy !req
326. I think he's in
for some real bad stuff.
Copy !req
327. You really got a hard-on
for that dude.
Copy !req
328. I don't have a hard-on for him.
He's got one for everybody.
Copy !req
329. He's got one for the world.
Copy !req
330. So fuck him.
Copy !req
331. If that's how he wants to play,
that's how we'll play.
Copy !req
332. 'A word about violence.
Copy !req
333. 'These three days will be only
as violent as you want them to be.
Copy !req
334. 'Your capture, should that occur,
Copy !req
335. 'will be as peaceful
as you want it to be.
Copy !req
336. 'An officer will announce to you
that you are apprehended
Copy !req
337. 'and that your participation
in the course has concluded.
Copy !req
338. 'Should you resist the arrest,
Copy !req
339. 'or should any of you adopt violence
in any form during the course,
Copy !req
340. 'then we shall use
those means against you.
Copy !req
341. 'In short, you can start
the violent actions if you so choose,
Copy !req
342. 'but I assure you
that we will finish them.'
Copy !req
343. Let's take a minute
and get out of here.
Copy !req
344. - I'm staying.
- I'm staying too.
Copy !req
345. Oh, you gonna stay here
and play, huh?
Copy !req
346. That man gonna shoot the shit
out of you! They gonna kill us!
Copy !req
347. We gotta break out sideways,
otherwise there's no chance.
Copy !req
348. I'm gonna hide out.
Copy !req
349. I don't know about the rest
of you, but this bullshit's got to end.
Copy !req
350. I ain't leaving
another motherfucking step!
Copy !req
351. Wait a second here,
Copy !req
352. you're going to bring them
down on all of us. Forget it.
Copy !req
353. Shit! You don't think
they're down on you now.
Copy !req
354. At least we've got a chance.
Copy !req
355. What chance, man?
You've got 50 miles of no chance!
Copy !req
356. You're going to go out there
Copy !req
357. and play target-practice
for them fucking pigs!
Copy !req
358. In two hours
we can get lost out there.
Copy !req
359. That's the only chance we got.
Here, they're gonna be on you in 5 mins.
Copy !req
360. You couldn't make it in the heat
if there were no police!
Copy !req
361. - I say stay.
- They got water.
Copy !req
362. We can't stay!
Copy !req
363. That's our only chance.
They're just over that hill.
Copy !req
364. You're a marksman?
Copy !req
365. - Yeah.
- A sniper?
Copy !req
366. A marksman.
Copy !req
367. What do you mean
you can't stay here?
Copy !req
368. The ones that are going have got
to go right now. We can't wait.
Copy !req
369. If you do a thing with the cops,
you're gonna get us killed.
Copy !req
370. Have you ever killed a man?
Copy !req
371. Yeah.
Copy !req
372. Jay Kaufman,
Copy !req
373. co-founder of the National Committee
Against War And Repression.
Copy !req
374. Age 28.
Copy !req
375. Time remaining 1 hour 42 mins.
Copy !req
376. I prefer it for the simple reason
Copy !req
377. that this thing, with magnum load,
has enough power
Copy !req
378. to knock down a rhinoceros
if it's coming at you.
Copy !req
379. I'm sure we're going to be apprehending
very few rhinoceri,
Copy !req
380. but, if we do, I want to know that
I'm going to be able to stop it.
Copy !req
381. I see by your file that you were
formerly a candidate for
Copy !req
382. Vice-President of the United States.
Copy !req
383. That's correct.
Copy !req
384. Also that you were very successful...
Copy !req
385. See how much I believed
in this system?
Copy !req
386. Make your answers brief.
Copy !req
387. OK. Bop.
Copy !req
388. You say you are against war
and depression.
Copy !req
389. What type of depression?
Copy !req
390. A depression of the people?
A depression of economics?
Copy !req
391. No, I'm not talking about depression,
I'm talking about re pression.
Copy !req
392. Repression. Being oppressed.
Copy !req
393. What were you charged with?
Copy !req
394. Draft evasion and, I don't know...
Copy !req
395. What did they call it?
Er, "hindering the war effort."
Copy !req
396. Are you for war
or against war?
Copy !req
397. I'm for war if it's necessary
to protect our country.
Copy !req
398. Do you condone
the war in Vietnam, sir?
Copy !req
399. - Certainly.
- You do. Why?
Copy !req
400. - Because it's protecting our country.
- Who tells you this?
Copy !req
401. Would you like us to let them come
over here? Would you fight then?
Copy !req
402. Who tells you that
this war is protecting your country?
Copy !req
403. We're fighting communism.
Copy !req
404. - Well, who tells you this?
- I hear it every day.
Copy !req
405. I gather that
you're not going to try and make
Copy !req
406. the next 50 miles to the US flag.
Copy !req
407. I wouldn't walk around
the goddamn fucking corner
Copy !req
408. for the American flag,
Copy !req
409. let alone go out in the desert.
Copy !req
410. Time remaining 1 hour 25 mins.
Copy !req
411. Squeeze
Copy !req
412. and fire.
Copy !req
413. We're going through
Copy !req
414. a kind of a group suicide
in America.
Copy !req
415. In a situation where you want
to fire two shots rapid-fire,
Copy !req
416. pull the hammer back
fire the first single action,
Copy !req
417. and follow it up.
Copy !req
418. Have you any idea how you're going
to complete these 50 miles?
Copy !req
419. I have no idea.
We're just going to keep on.
Copy !req
420. Do you know the difference
between a patriot and a chauvinist?
Copy !req
421. - A who?
- A patriot and a chauvinist.
Copy !req
422. - A chauvinist?
- Yes.
Copy !req
423. Define the word chauvinist to me.
Copy !req
424. Chauvin was
Copy !req
425. an officer under Napoleon
Copy !req
426. and his loyalty was so absurd
that we got the word Chauvin,
Copy !req
427. which is chauvinistic,
an absurd loyalty.
Copy !req
428. They promised us water
at the other end, water faucets.
Copy !req
429. They believe in protest
Copy !req
430. and ritual defiance,
Copy !req
431. and yet they're willing
to participate fully
Copy !req
432. in the rules established
by the police for these games,
Copy !req
433. fully expecting that they'll come out
all right if they make the flag.
Copy !req
434. Squeeze. Fire.
Copy !req
435. Are you expecting to die
in the next 2 or 3 days?
Copy !req
436. I expect to die
in the next 2 or 3 minutes.
Copy !req
437. Your function with this weapon
is to hit a man-size figure.
Copy !req
438. You don't have to put out his eye,
or get him in the heart or knee-cap,
Copy !req
439. or pick the heel off his boot
like Wyatt Earp.
Copy !req
440. - How old are you?
- I'm 20.
Copy !req
441. All you have to do is hit
a man-size figure
Copy !req
442. from here to there.
Copy !req
443. I don't think
they're trying to kill us, really.
Copy !req
444. Get him in that area,
he's going down
Copy !req
445. he's got to go down
and he's going down hurting.
Copy !req
446. I think they're just making it difficult.
Copy !req
447. This isn't Mexico or other countries
where they shoot people like you.
Copy !req
448. What would you do to us
if you were in control?
Copy !req
449. Would you be very
humanitarian with people like us?
Copy !req
450. I would make more of an effort
than you are.
Copy !req
451. What is your moral code?
What would you do for this country?
Copy !req
452. You're sitting back,
enjoying the adulation
Copy !req
453. of all these kids.
Copy !req
454. You are indulging
in this self gratification,
Copy !req
455. you are indulging in
some sort of mental masturbation.
Copy !req
456. That's what you're doing right now.
Copy !req
457. How could they have
any faith in a man
Copy !req
458. who makes a mockery out of
everything that we stand for?
Copy !req
459. The home, true love...
Copy !req
460. You haven't the first idea about love
with your love-ins, you really haven't.
Copy !req
461. If it was up to you,
Copy !req
462. we'd shut down the factories
and panhandle on the street.
Copy !req
463. And what kind of society
would we have then?
Copy !req
464. How would you feed people then?
Copy !req
465. You want us to support you.
That's what you want.
Copy !req
466. There is enough food
and wealth in this country
Copy !req
467. to take care of everyone,
Copy !req
468. and everyone isn't being
taken care of.
Copy !req
469. You want to go round the streets
and have orgies all the time.
Copy !req
470. I'm not going around
having orgies all the time.
Copy !req
471. I'm as concerned as you are about
the direction of this country.
Copy !req
472. I really feel sorry for you.
We're the same age,
Copy !req
473. and here you are defending
a miserable existence.
Copy !req
474. Don't you realise how
you're being exploited?
Copy !req
475. How the people who control the money
are diminishing your existence
Copy !req
476. to working in
a fucking dirty factory
Copy !req
477. which puts smoke up in the air,
which pollutes the world,
Copy !req
478. and you're working your ass off
saving money for your kids
Copy !req
479. getting pennies while they're making
hundreds of dollars?
Copy !req
480. Don't you realise
you're being duped?
Copy !req
481. How they've got your head
fucked with and indoctrinated?
Copy !req
482. How they have you conditioned?
How they misinformed you?
Copy !req
483. Don't you see this?
Are you that blind?
Copy !req
484. Some new kick or new drug
comes along, you'll try it.
Copy !req
485. What about kicks like
genocide, imperialism, napalm warfare?
Copy !req
486. What about those new kicks
which this country puts in practice?
Copy !req
487. This is a Remington Wingmaster
model 870 shotgun, 12-gauge.
Copy !req
488. What about corruption,
police brutality?
Copy !req
489. You are immoral!
Copy !req
490. What about the oppression
of the minorities?
Copy !req
491. - You're sick!
- I am not immoral, Mrs Jurgens!
Copy !req
492. Do you want to know what's immoral?
Copy !req
493. Do you want me to tell you
what's immoral?
Copy !req
494. War is immoral.
Poverty is immoral.
Copy !req
495. Racism is immoral.
Police brutality is immoral.
Copy !req
496. Oppression is immoral.
Genocide is immoral.
Copy !req
497. Imperialism is immoral.
Copy !req
498. This country represents
all those things.
Copy !req
499. It's loaded with 00 buckshot.
Copy !req
500. When are we gonna have love?
When are we gonna have brotherhood?
Copy !req
501. We're not as long
as this little fucking Hitler...
Copy !req
502. Each individual cartridge
Copy !req
503. has 9 ball-bearings in it.
Copy !req
504. And you're sending all the
oppressed people to their death!
Copy !req
505. Don't you know that?
Are you that fucking stupid?
Copy !req
506. Another outburst
and you'll be taken from the court.
Copy !req
507. It has no choke on it, the gun
has no choke on it whatsoever.
Copy !req
508. So the buckshot just flies out
in any and every direction.
Copy !req
509. Insane people who murder
the children of their country.
Copy !req
510. And your record,
what does that show?
Copy !req
511. What does the record
of this country show?
Copy !req
512. Destroying the country from within,
this is all your record shows.
Copy !req
513. You're destroying the world
from within!
Copy !req
514. Anything in front of you is totally
out of luck when you pull the trigger.
Copy !req
515. What does LSD have to do
with death, with murder,
Copy !req
516. with war, with injustice,
with poverty, with racism?
Copy !req
517. Take the prisoner out of here!
Get him out of here!
Copy !req
518. Get him out of here!
Copy !req
519. Get him out of here!
Copy !req
520. You have to pump to inject the shell
into the chamber and pump to eject it.
Copy !req
521. I was...
I was at a poetry reading.
Copy !req
522. Temperature 93 degrees.
Copy !req
523. The police came in...
Copy !req
524. and they swept us
off the stage.
Copy !req
525. People are just being
killed for nothing,
Copy !req
526. hauled off to jail,
hauled off to prison.
Copy !req
527. Feelings? There is no feeling.
Copy !req
528. Every day you walk outside,
some guy takes a shot at you.
Copy !req
529. Some pig in a goddamn uniform.
Copy !req
530. Watch the pattern of the buckshot.
Copy !req
531. And they say this is democracy.
Copy !req
532. Can you see the dispersement?
It looks like 6 or 7 feet.
Copy !req
533. We've got to wait
for the first one to come.
Copy !req
534. What if more than one comes?
Copy !req
535. An individual carrying a thing
like this with a safety arm,
Copy !req
536. might see someone
that would be an antagonist.
Copy !req
537. - Who's going to be a decoy?
- I'll do it.
Copy !req
538. You've got to hit a man in the right
spot and he's wearing a helmet.
Copy !req
539. Slip the safety off
and go like this.
Copy !req
540. How would you try and remedy
what's happening in America?
Copy !req
541. I don't think it can be done.
We've just got to evolve out of it.
Copy !req
542. And I think it'll happen violently.
Copy !req
543. Anything between those two shots
is blown away.
Copy !req
544. It is no longer causing you any trouble.
Copy !req
545. It does not exist any more.
Copy !req
546. It has one purpose alone
Copy !req
547. when loaded with buckshot,
that is to kill.
Copy !req
548. Not to disperse.
Not to harry. Not to wound. To kill.
Copy !req
549. Use it for that fact
when you have to do so.
Copy !req
550. Time remaining 50 mins.
Copy !req
551. What are your feelings
towards the police in this country?
Copy !req
552. I really don't think
they're too different from anybody else.
Copy !req
553. Pigs are pigs. I mean...
Copy !req
554. Pigs have always been pigs.
Copy !req
555. The street-cleaners
of the public conscience.
Copy !req
556. They're just like hired killers.
Copy !req
557. These people have been
sent out here unarmed.
Copy !req
558. Unarmed? I don't think
Jack did anything to them.
Copy !req
559. This is going to be the
first revolution in history
Copy !req
560. when the pigs were
in the upper class.
Copy !req
561. I think they're in the same boat
Copy !req
562. as the people we left
back at the house.
Copy !req
563. They have a point of view
Copy !req
564. and they're willing
to use any sort of means
Copy !req
565. to back it up.
Copy !req
566. They're doing a job.
They're just taking orders.
Copy !req
567. They're working. They're getting
paid for what they do.
Copy !req
568. Can you tell us...
Copy !req
569. Can you tell us what happened here?
Copy !req
570. What happened is obvious.
What I don't know is why.
Copy !req
571. That young man over there with that
white cloth on his head is dead.
Copy !req
572. They get paid more than social
workers or college professors.
Copy !req
573. They have a real stake
in maintaining the status quo.
Copy !req
574. He was attacked.
Copy !req
575. Signs point to at least
three people, maybe four.
Copy !req
576. He was stabbed to death
with the spires of a Joshua tree.
Copy !req
577. Do you think this man's death
will cause any
Copy !req
578. further antagonism on the part of
your officers towards these people?
Copy !req
579. No doubt about it whatsoever.
Copy !req
580. Each man is thinking that
Copy !req
581. that could have been him under
the same circumstances.
Copy !req
582. And it undoubtedly would have been.
Copy !req
583. There's no doubt that
it'll cause more antagonism,
Copy !req
584. and I think antagonism
is a very mild word
Copy !req
585. on the part of the men in
my command towards these individuals.
Copy !req
586. We have a specific plan of action
that we execute
Copy !req
587. in case of circumstances
such as these.
Copy !req
588. And as soon as the National Guard,
who found the body, informed me
Copy !req
589. that this had taken place,
Copy !req
590. those measures went into effect.
Copy !req
591. 'Better check on suspects
who may be in possession of firearms.'
Copy !req
592. Do you feel the country
is on the brink of fratricide?
Copy !req
593. Yes.
Copy !req
594. It's already there,
it's been happening for some time.
Copy !req
595. Did they take any weapons
from the deputy?
Copy !req
596. They have his patrol car.
Copy !req
597. They have a.357 Magnum.
Copy !req
598. They have a Remington 12-gauge
Wingmaster shotgun,
Copy !req
599. at least 50 rounds of ammunition.
Copy !req
600. They have his billy-club.
Copy !req
601. They also took his shoes.
Copy !req
602. They are armed and dangerous.
Copy !req
603. They have a shotgun - that's the most
dangerous weapon that I can imagine.
Copy !req
604. We will use force against them.
Copy !req
605. We will not take any chances
with these individuals.
Copy !req
606. They've killed once.
I don't like to lose men.
Copy !req
607. Did any of you know
the deputy that was killed?
Copy !req
608. I didn't know him that well.
Copy !req
609. It's not about a personal vendetta.
Copy !req
610. Quite the opposite.
We are not doing this for ourselves.
Copy !req
611. We're doing this for the people
who pay the taxes.
Copy !req
612. The thing that appals me is that
it seems to be almost understood.
Copy !req
613. It doesn't have to happen this way
if we can just...
Copy !req
614. If we can somehow create
a change of spirit, a change of mind.
Copy !req
615. It doesn't have to happen...
but it is.
Copy !req
616. - Have you ever killed a man?
- Yes, I have.
Copy !req
617. What did you feel
about that at the time?
Copy !req
618. No feeling at all.
Copy !req
619. 'Warning, the two suspects
are armed and dangerous.
Copy !req
620. 'Intercept with extreme caution.'
Copy !req
621. Do you think you'll have
to resort to violence?
Copy !req
622. No. I hadn't thought
about violence at all.
Copy !req
623. I don't think there'll be
any need for violence.
Copy !req
624. That's what we're working against.
Copy !req
625. But it just seems like
there's no other way
Copy !req
626. to defend ourselves.
Copy !req
627. Violence might be necessary, yes.
Copy !req
628. I can't see the good
in fighting back.
Copy !req
629. If they kill me, what difference
would my politics make?
Copy !req
630. I would be dead.
Copy !req
631. You quit your job and
you don't like to work for others.
Copy !req
632. I can understand that.
I have the same feelings sometimes.
Copy !req
633. William Luke Vallerio.
Unemployed, age 30.
Copy !req
634. I take a hunting trip sometimes
or just go off fishing,
Copy !req
635. leave the old lady at home.
Copy !req
636. But you're on vacation
all the time.
Copy !req
637. Is that your view of life?
Just to be on vacation all the time?
Copy !req
638. I do what I want to do.
Copy !req
639. Do you understand
why you are before this tribunal?
Copy !req
640. I don't want to go in the army.
Copy !req
641. If our country were attacked
within the hour,
Copy !req
642. would you join the US services?
Copy !req
643. I would not.
Copy !req
644. If I told you that I was going
to wad up this piece of paper
Copy !req
645. and hit you with it,
what would you do?
Copy !req
646. I would duck.
Copy !req
647. '2:00pm. KBCR News.
Copy !req
648. 'B-52 bombers today launched
a massive air strike
Copy !req
649. 'against the North Vietnamese
armament centre of Pem Dong,
Copy !req
650. 'only 15 miles from
the border with China.'
Copy !req
651. It's the whole violent thing
in America.
Copy !req
652. I don't know when it's going to stop.
Copy !req
653. I don't know what
Copy !req
654. would bring it all to an end.
Copy !req
655. You believe it's obviously
getting worse?
Copy !req
656. - Very much so.
- All the time.
Copy !req
657. With the war and
the minorities, the poor,
Copy !req
658. it is constantly getting worse
Copy !req
659. and it seems that more
and more people
Copy !req
660. are willing to turn to violence
Copy !req
661. to take care of it,
Copy !req
662. and it seems to be escalating
into an unthinkable situation.
Copy !req
663. I don't think they're sincere.
Copy !req
664. If they're sincere,
why don't they riot in wintertime?
Copy !req
665. 2:23pm.
Copy !req
666. Temperature 101 degrees.
Copy !req
667. Have you ever
gone hunting or have your dad
Copy !req
668. or your friends
taken you out hunting?
Copy !req
669. I've never gone hunting.
Copy !req
670. - You've never shot a gun?
- I've never shot a gun in my life.
Copy !req
671. - You don't know how to handle one?
- I don't.
Copy !req
672. I don't like guns.
Copy !req
673. What were you charged with?
Copy !req
674. Refusing induction.
Copy !req
675. Agent Donovan,
would you read that charge?
Copy !req
676. Conspiracy to aid and abet others
to avoid the draft.
Copy !req
677. How did you refuse?
Copy !req
678. I just ignored the letter.
I just didn't do anything.
Copy !req
679. You don't like to travel
and, according to the charges,
Copy !req
680. you tried to flee the country
because of draft evasion.
Copy !req
681. How do you reconcile that?
Copy !req
682. I don't like to travel
but it was necessary.
Copy !req
683. I wanted to get to some place
where I could stay, be in one place
Copy !req
684. be left alone to do
what I want to do,
Copy !req
685. instead of all the hassles
that I was having.
Copy !req
686. - Did they just come and take you?
- They broke in.
Copy !req
687. Mr Vallerio, you testified that you
live alone. Do you listen to the radio?
Copy !req
688. Do you have a TV set?
Copy !req
689. I didn't testify that I live alone.
I don't have a TV. I have a radio.
Copy !req
690. Do you know what's going on,
Copy !req
691. that the Chinese are crossing
the North Vietnam border
Copy !req
692. and that we're now bombing
within 5 miles of the border?
Copy !req
693. Do you realise the intensity in which
this situation places the USA?
Copy !req
694. It's getting hard to live here.
Copy !req
695. When they arrested me,
they roughed me up somewhat.
Copy !req
696. That's when my wife was arrested.
Copy !req
697. I was just trying to help him.
Copy !req
698. They charged me with assault
on a police officer.
Copy !req
699. The only legitimate thing
that I can think of doing
Copy !req
700. is to use my body or well-being,
Copy !req
701. my freedom or life,
Copy !req
702. to back up what I say.
Copy !req
703. At another time, the honourable
or right thing to do
Copy !req
704. might be to be a policeman
or to be President.
Copy !req
705. Right now, I think the honourable
thing to do is to be a criminal.
Copy !req
706. 'All units, this is truck 509.
Copy !req
707. 'We have a couple of suspects
in sight of truck 517.'
Copy !req
708. Would you describe your work
as committed, socially?
Copy !req
709. Yes, it's committed. But it's...
Copy !req
710. not committed to the revolution.
Copy !req
711. It's committed to...
Copy !req
712. sanity.
Copy !req
713. The normal human body temperature
is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit.
Copy !req
714. An increase in body temperature
Copy !req
715. of 6 to 8 degrees above normal
for any extended period
Copy !req
716. means death.
Copy !req
717. I don't know what
any of us could do.
Copy !req
718. Maybe if we all got together
Copy !req
719. for one day or for one week
Copy !req
720. and stopped, just stopped
doing everything and said,
Copy !req
721. "This has to stop.
The fucking war has to stop."
Copy !req
722. We have to do something
about all the hate here.
Copy !req
723. You were 2 weeks in jail
before being brought out here.
Copy !req
724. How did the police treat you?
Copy !req
725. Like we were trash.
Copy !req
726. They were really, really bad.
Copy !req
727. There they are, there!
Copy !req
728. The pigs are coming!
Copy !req
729. 'You are apprehended!
Copy !req
730. 'Your part in the course is concluded.'
Copy !req
731. Get them, come on!
Get them!
Copy !req
732. We were just told by the Senator
Copy !req
733. about the menace that faces us,
Copy !req
734. and here you sit
as if this was a picnic.
Copy !req
735. You've got shackles and handcuffs on
and this is a picnic!
Copy !req
736. Stop or we'll shoot to kill!
Copy !req
737. You sit there so quietly so calmly.
Copy !req
738. This is sickening!
You're a traitor.
Copy !req
739. Get in.
Copy !req
740. Perhaps you haven't had the guard
put the cuffs on tight enough.
Copy !req
741. I know it sounds a pain for you.
Copy !req
742. Out of order. Irrelevant.
Copy !req
743. Dogs.
Copy !req
744. I'm beginning to think that maybe
Copy !req
745. the others had the right idea.
Copy !req
746. There's no reason to react against that.
Copy !req
747. It'll just bring it down worse
on all of us.
Copy !req
748. He loves this country but,
"I want to go to Canada."
Copy !req
749. Why does he want to go to Canada?
Evade the draft.
Copy !req
750. Stop, I mean it!
Copy !req
751. Do you think they did this
Copy !req
752. because they were Chicano?
Copy !req
753. It has nothing to do with Chicanos.
Copy !req
754. They're going to do
the same thing to all of us.
Copy !req
755. Get in the car!
Copy !req
756. We have to get out of here, this is
the first place they're gonna look for us.
Copy !req
757. Sit down.
Copy !req
758. They could be right behind
any one of these little dunes.
Copy !req
759. 'We've picked up two of them.
Copy !req
760. 'Time check, 17.08.
Copy !req
761. 'One male one female, both Mexican.'
Copy !req
762. Temperature 107 degrees.
Copy !req
763. Will you stop following us, eh?
Copy !req
764. He's going to make a choice
between Punishment Park or prison
Copy !req
765. and he'll have to make
that choice himself.
Copy !req
766. The desert heat is a killer.
Copy !req
767. It will burn your skin,
sap your strength,
Copy !req
768. cut your efficiency,
drain the moisture from your body
Copy !req
769. and thicken your blood
unless you drink water.
Copy !req
770. There will be a temperature
difference of 45 degrees
Copy !req
771. between daytime heat
and pre-dawn cool.
Copy !req
772. Dawn on the second day.
Copy !req
773. Temperature 62 degrees.
Copy !req
774. Nancy Jane Smith.
Copy !req
775. Popular singer and composer.
Copy !req
776. Age 19.
Copy !req
777. I understand the defendant does not
wish to have you as her counsel.
Copy !req
778. That's correct, Mr Chairman.
She wishes to defend herself.
Copy !req
779. How do you feel?
Copy !req
780. My hands... my fingers are numb.
Copy !req
781. I'm afraid of my feet. They...
Copy !req
782. I'm so cold I threw up.
Copy !req
783. Did you hear the patrol cars
during the night?
Copy !req
784. We heard them...
Copy !req
785. We heard them in the distance,
but they didn't come near us.
Copy !req
786. I'd like to... I want to find out
a little bit more about you.
Copy !req
787. You were arrested
for assaulting a police officer.
Copy !req
788. What did you do to him?
Copy !req
789. I was trying to keep him
from arresting me.
Copy !req
790. The songs that she composes
are of a seditious nature.
Copy !req
791. She advocates the overthrow of
the government in many of her songs.
Copy !req
792. One of them I'll read right now.
Copy !req
793. Evidence Nancy Smith.
Copy !req
794. Seditious literature.
Copy !req
795. Santa Claus is coming
With a bag of bombs and guns
Copy !req
796. Santa Claus is here
The revolution has come
Copy !req
797. Grab a handful, dip in quick
Grant a slogan, make it stick
Copy !req
798. Right on, Baby
Get yours and fight like crazy
Copy !req
799. We can win, blow up buildings
Watch them fall
Copy !req
800. For hours that we spend
Standing in the hall
Copy !req
801. I bet your mother and father
are proud of you, aren't they?
Copy !req
802. Yes.
Copy !req
803. I'd like to hear you sing one.
Copy !req
804. Celibate ass0llickers
Riding cars made of gold
Copy !req
805. Taken from the poor
They've gathered to their fold
Copy !req
806. Father Pig leads a flock of sheep
Father Pig makes ready
Copy !req
807. For the slaughter
Copy !req
808. Celibate snatch-men
Their rhythm is the way
Copy !req
809. Poor ladies get the babies
Copy !req
810. But Father Dick has the say
Copy !req
811. Do you know what snatch is?
Copy !req
812. I don't have to be insulted
by this little guttersnipe.
Copy !req
813. In the psychiatric evaluation
of the prisoner, these songs
Copy !req
814. do show a neurotic
and schizophrenic tendency.
Copy !req
815. Is that your opinion, dummy?
Copy !req
816. Here's what I'm interested in...
Copy !req
817. You came from a wealthy family.
Copy !req
818. You had the best of things
that this country has to offer.
Copy !req
819. Why do you turn
against the country?
Copy !req
820. My parents taught me to think
Copy !req
821. and my parents gave me
certain values of honesty and...
Copy !req
822. - To think?
- That's why I'm here.
Copy !req
823. - Tell people to throw bombs too?
- No.
Copy !req
824. They taught me to think and they
gave me a set of moral values.
Copy !req
825. It don't have anything
to do with sex, lady.
Copy !req
826. - What happened to the moral values?
- I still have all of them.
Copy !req
827. What about the songs you write?
Copy !req
828. Do you call those moral?
Copy !req
829. Yeah. I call them a lot more moral
that what you're doing
Copy !req
830. sitting right there. Fuck off!
Copy !req
831. Watch your language.
Copy !req
832. Why should I watch my language?
Copy !req
833. Fuck off!
Copy !req
834. Watch your language, defendant.
Copy !req
835. Oh, shut up! What do you think
I care what you tell me to do?
Copy !req
836. You're going to kill me in a little while.
Copy !req
837. Old man!
Copy !req
838. Stop that language! That's part
of all the other moral crap.
Copy !req
839. Moral crap? You said crap!
Copy !req
840. Yes. You make me say crap!
Copy !req
841. - You make me very angry!
- Shoot that woman!
Copy !req
842. She said crap!
Copy !req
843. Sit down, defendant.
Copy !req
844. What you're doing
to the children...
Copy !req
845. What I'm doing?
Copy !req
846. Yes, what you're doing!
You make me sick!
Copy !req
847. You're a crazy girl!
You ought to be locked up!
Copy !req
848. Why should I be locked up?
Why don't you shoot me?
Copy !req
849. Because you're schizophrenic!
You're cuckoo!
Copy !req
850. Miss Smith, I remind you
that your violent
Copy !req
851. overthrow-of-the-government,
financially-rewarding songs,
Copy !req
852. really gives you a peculiar
kind of freedom
Copy !req
853. to have your love-ins,
to have your pot.
Copy !req
854. What is your philosophy
of government?
Copy !req
855. What do you believe in?
Copy !req
856. I would take every man
that is in this country
Copy !req
857. that's in a uniform
in another country
Copy !req
858. and bring him back home
and put him back in the world.
Copy !req
859. I would take every prisoner
out of their cages.
Copy !req
860. I'd take every hungry person
and feed them,
Copy !req
861. and take away every
rich person's money.
Copy !req
862. I would take every person
that's tired of working jobs
Copy !req
863. like on the auto lines
and things like that
Copy !req
864. who have worked for years for nothing
and never getting ahead...
Copy !req
865. Or people in college,
because I had to quit school because
Copy !req
866. I got so fucking paranoid,
because after Kent State
Copy !req
867. I realised that I had to put on
Copy !req
868. a cheerleader's sweater
with an I love America pin
Copy !req
869. and the people who were shooting
weren't even aiming.
Copy !req
870. I'd walk out of a classroom
Copy !req
871. and be on my way to lunch
and get killed just as easily
Copy !req
872. as in the front line of a barricade
in a demonstration.
Copy !req
873. - Do you have any children?
- Yes, I have.
Copy !req
874. How many children?
Copy !req
875. You've tried to get into the mind
Copy !req
876. of some of my children.
Copy !req
877. They were brainwashed by watching
Donna Reed and Father Knows Best.
Copy !req
878. By the time they listened to me,
they were past their formative years.
Copy !req
879. - How many?
- I have 3 children.
Copy !req
880. How would you feel
if one of them died?
Copy !req
881. I'd feel terrible.
Copy !req
882. The course has now been in progress
Copy !req
883. for 24 and a half hours.
Copy !req
884. Let us get back to the charges.
Copy !req
885. I'll read them again.
Copy !req
886. I have a charge
to make against you.
Copy !req
887. I have a charge to make
against you, old man!
Copy !req
888. You old, sick man.
Copy !req
889. How many kids have you
led to the slaughter?
Copy !req
890. How many kids are out there now?
Copy !req
891. Who's getting killed by the guns
that I hear go off?
Copy !req
892. How many children have been
through these tribunals?
Copy !req
893. - Silence!
- No!
Copy !req
894. How many children have you killed?
Copy !req
895. Who's dying right now?
Copy !req
896. You sent those kids out there.
Copy !req
897. I sent those kids out there?
Copy !req
898. Who's dying? Who's dead that
was sitting right here?
Copy !req
899. You sat here and with
all the arrogance in the world...
Copy !req
900. I don't have to listen to that.
Copy !req
901. You don't even hear me.
Copy !req
902. Cut it out!
Copy !req
903. You have no real way of running
anything, you're a phoney!
Copy !req
904. Don't you dare talk to me like that!
Copy !req
905. There's no question about this girl
Copy !req
906. being a definite communist threat
to this nation.
Copy !req
907. Each member of this group
Copy !req
908. is now lacking
about two quarts of body water.
Copy !req
909. I believe in destroying
everything that you stand for
Copy !req
910. and destroy everything that
you're trying to do.
Copy !req
911. I'm complaining?
Copy !req
912. I have the right to complain!
Copy !req
913. Defendant, sit down.
Restrain the defendant.
Copy !req
914. You're going to put a bullet...
Copy !req
915. Basically, we found ourselves
in a situation where
Copy !req
916. we thought we had the entire group
of militants pinned down
Copy !req
917. and called upon them to surrender.
Copy !req
918. They did not do so and you see
the consequences of their decision.
Copy !req
919. Silence the defendant!
Copy !req
920. Silence the defendant!
Copy !req
921. Senator, this is when
it is getting out of proportion...
Copy !req
922. You may have kids
and their lives are relevant...
Copy !req
923. I've got a couple of young kids.
How are you going to raise them?
Copy !req
924. We have at least one more
running around.
Copy !req
925. What do you plan to do now?
Copy !req
926. We have this gun.
Copy !req
927. We'll try to find a place
in the high ground
Copy !req
928. and wait for them and,
if they don't come, we'll get out.
Copy !req
929. We know we'll get them.
Copy !req
930. This whole fucking game
is like a revolution and we're in it.
Copy !req
931. If we don't get them, the desert will.
Copy !req
932. We've got to either win or die.
Copy !req
933. - Where was he hit?
- In the neck.
Copy !req
934. I don't much care
just so they're hit.
Copy !req
935. And if we do win, we're going to wreck
this fucking establishment
Copy !req
936. and this fucking game.
Copy !req
937. They don't understand
what's going on in this country.
Copy !req
938. They have no idea, no loyalty,
no understanding,
Copy !req
939. and they respond with violence.
Copy !req
940. And the words in her songs
"Throw bombs!"
Copy !req
941. "Blow up!"Kill!"Kill!"
Copy !req
942. And who do they kill?
Innocent people.
Copy !req
943. And she drives the kids here
and says we did it.
Copy !req
944. Temperature 98 degrees.
Copy !req
945. One of the main reasons for having
Punishment Park in the first place
Copy !req
946. is because, with the type of crime
Copy !req
947. that we have being committed today,
Copy !req
948. the civil and social crime,
Copy !req
949. we're filling up our prisons
Copy !req
950. faster than we can build
new facilities.
Copy !req
951. Ask the Senator how it is.
Copy !req
952. May we ask you what you feel about
Copy !req
953. your duty on the board today?
Copy !req
954. What do you feel about
disciplining young people?
Copy !req
955. A number of these young people
Copy !req
956. remind me of a situation
I had at home.
Copy !req
957. It was one of my own daughters.
Copy !req
958. For about a year we had
quite a difficult time with her.
Copy !req
959. She didn't believe that there
would be any discipline at home
Copy !req
960. and we sort of worked
that thing out.
Copy !req
961. May I ask you how you worked it out?
Copy !req
962. I kept punishing her
and she kept responding
Copy !req
963. until finally we worked
it out quite well.
Copy !req
964. You've got to remember that
these children of ours today are like
Copy !req
965. skilled and trained,
highly-bred horses.
Copy !req
966. They're trained
to go around that track,
Copy !req
967. but then you've got
to sort of hold them in,
Copy !req
968. because, if you let the reins out,
Copy !req
969. they'll just run around that track
without any control at all.
Copy !req
970. We do get a few oddballs
before this tribunal.
Copy !req
971. Especially that one
that wouldn't kill a fly.
Copy !req
972. He said he'd take
one of these cups and catch the fly
Copy !req
973. and take it outside and let it free.
Copy !req
974. He's probably a 1-A now,
or in Indochina. I wouldn't know.
Copy !req
975. I'd rather be in a lot more places
than in the desert.
Copy !req
976. I have a wife and family back home.
Copy !req
977. There are certain things
you have to do for your country,
Copy !req
978. but for all the abuse
and just seeing these characters
Copy !req
979. have no respect for this country
it's difficult.
Copy !req
980. We give them a chance
Copy !req
981. to have a fair say
but they don't seem to appreciate it.
Copy !req
982. It's a very difficult job to do,
it really is.
Copy !req
983. But somebody has to do it.
Copy !req
984. We do our best.
Copy !req
985. What would you do if one of your
own children appeared before you?
Copy !req
986. Oh, my God.
Copy !req
987. No, my kids wouldn't do that.
They really wouldn't.
Copy !req
988. They've been trained differently.
Copy !req
989. I see a running pattern of paranoia
in these youngsters.
Copy !req
990. This may sound funny,
but it isn't funny.
Copy !req
991. I think there should've been
more spank and less Spock in America,
Copy !req
992. and our youth wouldn't be
what they are today.
Copy !req
993. These are political criminals.
They are not social criminals.
Copy !req
994. They have to be shown
that their way is wrong.
Copy !req
995. We cannot show them by killing them,
by building gas chambers,
Copy !req
996. or by setting up machine-gun bunkers
and covering them with bulldozers.
Copy !req
997. This is not the way
we like to operate.
Copy !req
998. - What's wrong?
- Fuck! Fuck!
Copy !req
999. - Let's get going.
- Let's get the fuck out of here.
Copy !req
1000. But going where?
Copy !req
1001. Let's try to make it to the flag.
Copy !req
1002. How we gonna make it somewhere?
We have no water!
Copy !req
1003. There's no water that way.
Copy !req
1004. What would your forefathers
have done, Mr Kohler,
Copy !req
1005. if, during the revolution
Copy !req
1006. they were all conscientious objectors?
Copy !req
1007. If the majority of my forefathers
were conscientious objectors
Copy !req
1008. it would include the people
from England too
Copy !req
1009. and in that case
they would have been acting justly
Copy !req
1010. towards the people in the colonies...
Copy !req
1011. James Arthur Kohler.
Copy !req
1012. Pacifist. Age 20.
Copy !req
1013. and they wouldn't have been
over here killing the Indians.
Copy !req
1014. Tell me, are you aware of the crisis
in this country?
Copy !req
1015. How deeply do you feel about
the present crisis of the nation
Copy !req
1016. and of the world at large
Copy !req
1017. and the responsibility
that we have to this crisis?
Copy !req
1018. What responsibility do you have
as a citizen of this country?
Copy !req
1019. My responsibilities as a citizen
do not include killing for it.
Copy !req
1020. I'm not going any further.
Copy !req
1021. They want us to try and break out.
Copy !req
1022. They want us to become violent.
Copy !req
1023. They want us to be like them.
Copy !req
1024. I'm not going to let them
play games with me any more!
Copy !req
1025. Anyone that wants
to come with us, come on.
Copy !req
1026. They want to blow your brains out.
Copy !req
1027. They're going to kill you.
Straight and simple.
Copy !req
1028. See that? That's what'll kill us!
Things like that!
Copy !req
1029. Are you familiar with
Saint Thomas Aquinas?
Copy !req
1030. Yes, I am.
Copy !req
1031. I think he had this to say
about a just war.
Copy !req
1032. He laid down a proviso
for a just war, he said this:
Copy !req
1033. that war must be decided
upon legitimate authority
Copy !req
1034. and, secondly, that its objective
must be to vindicate justice
Copy !req
1035. and that, thirdly,
it must be waged with a just intent.
Copy !req
1036. This was during the 12th Century,
before this present time.
Copy !req
1037. He understood
what a just war meant.
Copy !req
1038. Can't you understand that
the policy in Indochina
Copy !req
1039. is even justified by
a 12th Century philosopher?
Copy !req
1040. Those provisos came
from Saint Augustine originally,
Copy !req
1041. and Saint Augustine
had a fourth proviso which shows
Copy !req
1042. the total absurdity
of considering any war just:
Copy !req
1043. that a war must be waged
Copy !req
1044. under the control
of a loving disposition,
Copy !req
1045. that no man is fit
to inflict punishment
Copy !req
1046. until he has banished
hate from his heart.
Copy !req
1047. Temperature 109 degrees.
Copy !req
1048. Distance to the US flag,
Copy !req
1049. 27 miles.
Copy !req
1050. Defendant, I take it
from your philosophy
Copy !req
1051. you're opposed to slavery,
is that right?
Copy !req
1052. Yes, I am.
Copy !req
1053. And the Civil War was fought
to free the slaves?
Copy !req
1054. It wasn't.
Copy !req
1055. Speak up, will you?
Copy !req
1056. It wasn't fought to free the slaves
Copy !req
1057. and it wasn't a just war.
Copy !req
1058. It was a just war
Copy !req
1059. because the black people
fought for freedom.
Copy !req
1060. Would you have fought
on the side of the black people?
Copy !req
1061. Black people haven't
gained their freedom!
Copy !req
1062. What do you think what's
happening right now is all about?
Copy !req
1063. We know that there are
only a handful of black militants
Copy !req
1064. that are running the People's Army.
It does not represent the community.
Copy !req
1065. You are trying to overthrow
the government.
Copy !req
1066. Charles Robbins,
Copy !req
1067. member of the People's Army.
Copy !req
1068. Age 25.
Copy !req
1069. Martin Luther King was opposed
to your violence and
Copy !req
1070. you're talking about a People's
Army when you're only a handful.
Copy !req
1071. To deal with the thing of
what you call black militants
Copy !req
1072. trying to overthrow the government.
Copy !req
1073. The thing is,
we're trying to save people,
Copy !req
1074. because the government
is overthrowing itself.
Copy !req
1075. My loyalty is to the people.
People are the most important thing,
Copy !req
1076. and people have been left out
Copy !req
1077. while the cats that run this country
have moved and shitted all over.
Copy !req
1078. You dwell on the black problem.
Copy !req
1079. It's quite obvious
because I'm black.
Copy !req
1080. I've been to Washington DC
Copy !req
1081. and I have seen the schools
and ghettos,
Copy !req
1082. and we are trying to educate,
Copy !req
1083. and yet you're trying
to take over our programmes.
Copy !req
1084. Is that what you're trying to offer?
Our own programmes?
Copy !req
1085. The thing is we don't want
to take over your programmes
Copy !req
1086. because we know your programmes
are very corrupt.
Copy !req
1087. Do you believe
you're separatist or a racist?
Copy !req
1088. I'm neither.
I'm an Internationalist.
Copy !req
1089. You have no chance in hell
going the way you're going.
Copy !req
1090. Two surviving members
of Corrective Group 637
Copy !req
1091. have seized a West German
sound technician as hostage.
Copy !req
1092. We're trying to save the people.
Copy !req
1093. In what way?
Copy !req
1094. Through mass education. We believe
in education through example.
Copy !req
1095. We have very functional programmes.
Example. Right on.
Copy !req
1096. What kind of example are you?
Copy !req
1097. You're a revolutionary.
Copy !req
1098. Your newspapers show
a black militant with a gun.
Copy !req
1099. "Shoot the pigs!"
"Shoot the pigs!"
Copy !req
1100. I believe in this.
Copy !req
1101. It's simple and plain.
Copy !req
1102. When fired upon,
I believe in firing back.
Copy !req
1103. One...
Copy !req
1104. - Two...
- Don't shoot. Don't.
Copy !req
1105. Three.
Copy !req
1106. It's just a matter of staying alive.
Copy !req
1107. It's like a game they're playing with us.
Copy !req
1108. You either win or you die.
Copy !req
1109. The pigs are running madly
through our community,
Copy !req
1110. slaughtering off our children
and our women.
Copy !req
1111. The truth in America is that
America is a sick society.
Copy !req
1112. America is full of motherfuckers
who have shitted upon people.
Copy !req
1113. Are you afraid to die?
Copy !req
1114. No, I'm not afraid to die.
That's quite obvious.
Copy !req
1115. Why are you leading your people
into a mass hysteria?
Copy !req
1116. When I walk through
Washington DC asking why...
Copy !req
1117. Hey, man, you're always
in Washington DC,
Copy !req
1118. but you ain't doing
nothing in Washington DC!
Copy !req
1119. You're out here
in California right now,
Copy !req
1120. sitting on a committee
Copy !req
1121. that is supposed to be
from this particular area,
Copy !req
1122. but you are not even from this area,
Copy !req
1123. because you spend most
of your time in Washington DC.
Copy !req
1124. How come you're not in Washington DC
relating to the problem?
Copy !req
1125. Does that make me a pig?
Copy !req
1126. I don't to have to call you a pig
because you know what you are.
Copy !req
1127. What are you taking about
a mad dog? Define what...
Copy !req
1128. Would you like me to define
what a politician is?
Copy !req
1129. A politician is nothing
but a debater.
Copy !req
1130. All that you do is debate issues,
you fat pig!
Copy !req
1131. You meathead!
That's all that you are,
Copy !req
1132. because you're a lying sucker!
Copy !req
1133. You're lying to the camera,
to your mamma, to everybody!
Copy !req
1134. Quiet!
Copy !req
1135. Quiet, defendant!
Copy !req
1136. You ain't got no humanity in you
because you're a pig!
Copy !req
1137. You lying punk!
Copy !req
1138. Restrain the defendant.
Copy !req
1139. Shut him up!
Copy !req
1140. Shut him up! Gag him!
Copy !req
1141. Shut him up!
Copy !req
1142. Defence counsel.
Copy !req
1143. Shut him up!
Copy !req
1144. What seems quite clear now
Copy !req
1145. is that instead of trying to bring
estranged and excluded Americans
Copy !req
1146. such as these people
back into the national community,
Copy !req
1147. the administration has chosen
Copy !req
1148. to accept and exploit the division
within the country
Copy !req
1149. and to side with what it considers
as the majority.
Copy !req
1150. Instead of the politics
of reconciliation,
Copy !req
1151. it has chosen
the politics of polarisation.
Copy !req
1152. Have you discussed what you'll do
if you have to leave him?
Copy !req
1153. Or will you try
and take him with you?
Copy !req
1154. We never thought about it.
Copy !req
1155. Morning on the third day.
Copy !req
1156. When the human body has suffered
a dehydration of between 6 to 10%
Copy !req
1157. it experiences dizziness,
difficulty in breathing,
Copy !req
1158. decreased blood volume,
indistinct speech,
Copy !req
1159. and finally an inability to walk.
Copy !req
1160. Distance to the US flag,
Copy !req
1161. 23 miles.
Copy !req
1162. I'd like to know about
violence on the campus.
Copy !req
1163. I'd like to know why
you people do these things.
Copy !req
1164. A lot of us work hard
Copy !req
1165. to build those schools
and pay taxes.
Copy !req
1166. And build these universities
for our kids to go to.
Copy !req
1167. And you people just come along
and burn them right down.
Copy !req
1168. Do you want him
to answer your question?
Copy !req
1169. You'll get a chance,
Defence Counsel.
Copy !req
1170. Students don't burn buildings down.
That's just a myth.
Copy !req
1171. It's just a sensationalised myth
brought about by the press.
Copy !req
1172. Students don't burn buildings down,
Copy !req
1173. and, besides,
I don't advocate violence.
Copy !req
1174. Alison Michener, radical organiser
of women's unions,
Copy !req
1175. co-founder of the National Committee
Against War And Repression.
Copy !req
1176. Age 23.
Copy !req
1177. It's a waste of time.
Copy !req
1178. You try to destroy the Bank Of America,
try to break in a window or something.
Copy !req
1179. They can build it right up.
They have the money, power.
Copy !req
1180. That's not the way to change things.
Copy !req
1181. I'm glad I'm here.
Copy !req
1182. Some of the guys
Copy !req
1183. have gotten pretty upset
since the deputy incident the other day.
Copy !req
1184. I'm afraid they're going to shoot first
and ask questions later.
Copy !req
1185. Have you heard
some of the men say that?
Copy !req
1186. They've really gotten paranoid.
Copy !req
1187. I think that people become violent
Copy !req
1188. when they are deprived
of their basic human needs.
Copy !req
1189. I think that they become violent
when that is their only alternative
Copy !req
1190. to achieving the satisfaction
of those needs.
Copy !req
1191. A major component
of our democratic society
Copy !req
1192. comes from the preamble
to the Constitution
Copy !req
1193. which states that an individual
is guaranteed the rights to life,
Copy !req
1194. liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Copy !req
1195. The rights to life.
Copy !req
1196. It seems paradoxical to me that
Copy !req
1197. a nation with such ideals
Copy !req
1198. and such economic power
Copy !req
1199. still cannot fulfil or
seems unwilling to fulfil
Copy !req
1200. basic human needs
Copy !req
1201. of food, clothing and shelter.
Copy !req
1202. The decoy seems
to have worked very well.
Copy !req
1203. It's brought them out in the open.
Copy !req
1204. They've reached the decoy.
Copy !req
1205. A country with this economic
power and those kinds of ideals
Copy !req
1206. still at this point
Copy !req
1207. can't feed 11 million people,
according to a government survey.
Copy !req
1208. Your participation
in the course is terminated.
Copy !req
1209. Temperature 111 degrees.
Copy !req
1210. still can't feed 11 million people,
can't clothe those people,
Copy !req
1211. even though they're producing
those things in overabundance.
Copy !req
1212. Now why is that? And if you have
someone who can't get food stamps
Copy !req
1213. and who can't get on welfare
and who is starving,
Copy !req
1214. that person has two alternatives
Copy !req
1215. he or she can either sit there
and watch his children starve...
Copy !req
1216. or go out and fight
for what he needs.
Copy !req
1217. Stop where you are.
Copy !req
1218. Sit down, cross your legs and
keep your hands behind your head.
Copy !req
1219. Stop where you are!
Sit down where you are!
Copy !req
1220. Cross your legs and
put your hands behind your head.
Copy !req
1221. You're under arrest.
Copy !req
1222. I think they can't hear you.
Copy !req
1223. Stop where you are!
Copy !req
1224. Stop!
Copy !req
1225. Stop where you are!
Copy !req
1226. Stop. Sit down. Go back or
I shall shoot to kill.
Copy !req
1227. I don't think they can hear you.
Just a minute.
Copy !req
1228. Get back. There seems
to be some confusion here.
Copy !req
1229. Stop where you are!
Copy !req
1230. Sit down!
Copy !req
1231. Now come on. Slow up.
They can't hear you.
Copy !req
1232. Sit down! Sit down!
Copy !req
1233. Sit down!
Copy !req
1234. Fuck!
Copy !req
1235. Go on! Get the gun!
Copy !req
1236. Dear Lord,
Copy !req
1237. we pray for Harold.
Copy !req
1238. Violence is inherent in this society.
You don't seem to understand that.
Copy !req
1239. You fucking bastards!
Get out of here!
Copy !req
1240. The movement went through
a long time in history
Copy !req
1241. and was very reluctant to make
radical changes, to become violent.
Copy !req
1242. We saw the government would
only make changes
Copy !req
1243. when we did become violent.
Copy !req
1244. Violent, violent,
violent, violent.
Copy !req
1245. Yes, violence, Mr Chairman.
Copy !req
1246. I think we should realise
the dangerous extent to which...
Copy !req
1247. You wish the floor, Defence Counsel?
Copy !req
1248. - Yes, I do! Yes, I do!
- Then get up.
Copy !req
1249. We should realise the degree
to which the violence of the students
Copy !req
1250. is now being overplayed and that of
the establishment is being minimised.
Copy !req
1251. You are trying to put radicals
on trial as scapegoats
Copy !req
1252. for the problems of your own system.
Copy !req
1253. It's rather appropriate
Copy !req
1254. that Harold was a poet.
Copy !req
1255. There's no place for a poet
in this culture.
Copy !req
1256. It's so hard to have
any hope about anything
Copy !req
1257. after you see how completely
inhuman people can be.
Copy !req
1258. We must draw this
cross-examination to a close.
Copy !req
1259. There was no need to do that.
Copy !req
1260. I'm sitting here chained in the chair
Copy !req
1261. and you don't need to send
these people you train
Copy !req
1262. to behave like mad dogs.
Copy !req
1263. I have a very important part of
the hearing to talk to you about...
Copy !req
1264. I don't think you know
what's important,
Copy !req
1265. the amnesty provision
and I want to read it to you.
Copy !req
1266. Your signing of
a voluntary pledge of loyalty
Copy !req
1267. that you will not again participate
in any form or manner
Copy !req
1268. of extra-legal or subversive
political activity,
Copy !req
1269. and that you will not again hinder
State or Federal authorities
Copy !req
1270. in matters relating to safeguarding
of the national security.
Copy !req
1271. I am loyal to the people
of this country, Your Honour,
Copy !req
1272. or whatever your title is.
Copy !req
1273. I am not loyal to the government
because it is against the people.
Copy !req
1274. Hands behind your head.
Come out.
Copy !req
1275. Don't shoot them! Don't shoot them!
They're all right!
Copy !req
1276. Tell them not to shoot!
Copy !req
1277. Tell that fucker not to shoot!
Copy !req
1278. Tell them not to shoot.
Copy !req
1279. Wait!
Copy !req
1280. Tell that nigger to put his hands up
where I can see them.
Copy !req
1281. Fuck you!
Copy !req
1282. Come on! Come on! Come on!
There's a camera crew here!
Copy !req
1283. I don't give a fuck who's there.
Copy !req
1284. Ease up! Ease up!
Copy !req
1285. Murderer!
Copy !req
1286. Put your hands behind your head.
Copy !req
1287. You're just waiting to kill us.
Copy !req
1288. Take pictures of this!
They're gonna kill us!
Copy !req
1289. I think there is a chance
to make it through this course
Copy !req
1290. and I think we're going to do it.
Copy !req
1291. We have to not lose hope
and keep on going.
Copy !req
1292. We don't have any guns.
Copy !req
1293. Please watch them, don't leave!
Come on!
Copy !req
1294. Our choice is whether to submit
to this self-destruction
Copy !req
1295. passively or violently.
Copy !req
1296. That's the only choice I see.
Copy !req
1297. Fucking liar!
You'll shoot us in the back!
Copy !req
1298. Keep back. Keep back, now.
Copy !req
1299. So you feel that, just as you feel
Copy !req
1300. there's a reason for going on
through the course,
Copy !req
1301. this is the same way
to try and deal with
Copy !req
1302. what you feel is wrong with
the system in America?
Copy !req
1303. I think that's right. Yeah.
Copy !req
1304. I think if you play it
Copy !req
1305. by the rules of the people
who've set up the game,
Copy !req
1306. even though they're stacked
against you,
Copy !req
1307. that's the only way
to possibly win the game.
Copy !req
1308. Don't do that! Don't do that!
Copy !req
1309. Get down!
Copy !req
1310. You goddamn motherfucking
weekend warriors!
Copy !req
1311. You killed them!
Copy !req
1312. Oh, God!
Copy !req
1313. Oh, God.
Copy !req
1314. Motherfuckers!
Copy !req
1315. You murderers!
Copy !req
1316. Cut! Cut!
Copy !req
1317. Kill him!
Copy !req
1318. Leave him alone! Leave him alone!
Copy !req
1319. That's an accident!
Copy !req
1320. Put that fucking rock down, boy!
Copy !req
1321. Cut the camera!
Copy !req
1322. Cut the camera!
Copy !req
1323. I feel very little hope for us.
Copy !req
1324. I don't see any hope either way.
Copy !req
1325. It's simply a matter
of what you believe in
Copy !req
1326. Either you believe in non-violence
or you don't.
Copy !req
1327. And, if you do,
Copy !req
1328. many times there's
only one path left to you
Copy !req
1329. and you have to take that,
no matter what it means to you.
Copy !req
1330. Now, come on. Help these people!
Help these people! Help them.
Copy !req
1331. Help them.
Copy !req
1332. That one's dead.
Copy !req
1333. Oh, you fuckers! You fuckers!
Copy !req
1334. You shitty fucking cunts!
Copy !req
1335. We've got one left alive, huh?
Copy !req
1336. Fucking idiots!
Copy !req
1337. We've seen this! We've seen this!
We've seen this!
Copy !req
1338. Officer Edwards, we've seen this!
Copy !req
1339. I don't give a flying fuck
what you've seen!
Copy !req
1340. This is going on NBC!
Copy !req
1341. We've seen this!
Copy !req
1342. I don't care if you take it
and jam it in your ass.
Copy !req
1343. You murdering bastards!
You fucking bastards!
Copy !req
1344. As soon as you get through
with your little hysterics, we can go on.
Copy !req
1345. Hysterics, mate? You wait until
you see yourself on TV.
Copy !req
1346. I've been on TV before.
I'm not worried.
Copy !req
1347. Not like this you haven't.
Copy !req
1348. Captain, should I call
for the ambulances?
Copy !req
1349. Let the buzzards get the
sons-of-bitches. And him too.
Copy !req
1350. - They threw rocks and...
- This man's shook up.
Copy !req
1351. Leave him alone.
Copy !req
1352. The gun went off, it was an accident.
I didn't want to kill anyone.
Copy !req
1353. Why did you kill two people?
Copy !req
1354. I don't know. It was an accident.
Copy !req
1355. - You didn't mean to kill them?
- No, I didn't want to kill anyone.
Copy !req
1356. You didn't want to kill them?
Copy !req
1357. No! No!
Copy !req
1358. No, I didn't want to kill anyone!
It was an accident!
Copy !req
1359. Hey! Leave him alone.
Leave him alone!
Copy !req
1360. I didn't want to kill anyone,
it was an accident.
Copy !req
1361. - How old is this kid?
- He's 18.
Copy !req
1362. What's a kid doing in the National Guard
if he can't use weapons?
Copy !req
1363. - He's trained to use them.
- Trained to use them?
Copy !req
1364. What do you expect with
all those men throwing rocks?
Copy !req
1365. - You mean he's trained to kill people?
- Yes, he is. To defend his country.
Copy !req
1366. He's trained to defend his country!
Copy !req
1367. You mean he's trained to kill
unarmed people like that?
Copy !req
1368. It was an accident!
Copy !req
1369. It was an accident.
They were throwing rocks.
Copy !req
1370. The gun just went off.
I didn't know what happened.
Copy !req
1371. What are you going
to say to their parents?
Copy !req
1372. Come on, soldier. Let's go.
Come on. Let's go.
Copy !req
1373. 'President Nixon
in San Clemente, California,
Copy !req
1374. 'sent a telegram for reading
at the Artists' Variety Show.
Copy !req
1375. 'The Chief Executive told the artists:
Copy !req
1376. "'We Americans are known throughout
the world as forward-looking people."
Copy !req
1377. 'The President said the USA is
a symbol of progress, of hope
Copy !req
1378. 'and of just and orderly growth.'
Copy !req
1379. 'Seven flights of B-52
bombers hit guerrilla infiltration routes
Copy !req
1380. 'along the Cambodian border
north of Saigon today.'
Copy !req
1381. The afternoon of the following day.
Copy !req
1382. This has been a session
marred by continual disruptive outbursts,
Copy !req
1383. in direct defiance
of judicial authority,
Copy !req
1384. by the defendants
and Defence Counsel.
Copy !req
1385. Outbursts in the form
of constant murmurs.
Copy !req
1386. This disruption is a further example
of what I've been referring to.
Copy !req
1387. Marshal, you'll restrain the prisoner
if he makes any more outbursts.
Copy !req
1388. Outbursts in the form of
constant murmurs and derision,
Copy !req
1389. shouting profanity and abuse.
Copy !req
1390. No record, no matter
how skilfully transcribed...
Copy !req
1391. - We'll have quiet here!
- Or what?
Copy !req
1392. can adequately portray
the venom, sarcasm,
Copy !req
1393. and tone of voice
employed by a speaker.
Copy !req
1394. This has been a session marked
by guffaws, cheap theatrics
Copy !req
1395. and other affectations
used by the defendants
Copy !req
1396. in an attempt to break up
these proceedings.
Copy !req
1397. Despite these outbursts,
the proceedings have been conducted
Copy !req
1398. with impartiality and objectivity,
Copy !req
1399. as called for by the extreme
seriousness of the circumstances.
Copy !req
1400. Turn him loose!
Copy !req

doing out here?

to enforce those laws.
Copy !req
1531. And we do
a goddamn good job of it!
Copy !req
1532. You're making out like
a big humanitarian.
Copy !req
1533. The only thing you want is
to sell this to your goddamn network.

1534. I don't see you putting
any band-aids on anybody.

and let them go through.
Copy !req
1537. This happened in Chicago.
It happened in Los Angeles.
Copy !req
1538. Hey buddy,
were you at Chicago?
Copy !req
1539. It'll happen as long as we've got
this type to deal with.
Copy !req
1540. Get the defendants out of here.
Copy !req
1541. You see what your great land
is all about?
Copy !req
1542. No, we haven't cheated.
Copy !req
1543. You cheated. You never intended
to let them finish the course.
Copy !req
1544. You're full of shit.
Copy !req
1545. You had radios.
Copy !req
1546. They've obviously been under control.
Copy !req
1547. You have your opinion.
There's nothing that will change it
Copy !req
1548. and it isn't worth
my valuable time to talk to you.
Copy !req

out of here.
