Imagine: John Lennon

:30:02
at the very basis of our existence
as God-fearing, patriotic citizens...

:30:06
then we urge you to take
your Beatles records...

:30:08
pictures and souvenirs
to the pick-up points about to be named.

:30:11
And on the night of the Beatles'
appearance in Memphis, August 19...

:30:15
they will be destroyed
in a huge public bonfire...

:30:18
at a place to be named soon. Stay tuned
to Rocky for further developments.

:30:22
Now this religious controversy...
:30:24
I know that you don't want
to say too much about it...

:30:26
does it worry you it's gonna
boil up when you get to the States?

:30:28
It worries me, yes, but I hope everything
will be all right in the end, as they say.

:30:34
I think the Beatles
are a real talented group...

:30:36
but I think they need to watch
what they say because...

:30:39
they're in such a position
that a lot of teenagers...

:30:42
really think of them
as something really big.

:30:44
When they say things like that...
:30:46
some teenagers are gonna just believe
anything they say.

:30:48
I'm not saying that we're better
or greater...

:30:51
or comparing us with Jesus Christ
as a person...

:30:54
or God as a thing, or whatever it is.
:30:56
I just said what I said, and it was wrong,
or was taken wrong. And now it's all this.

:31:01
Did you mean that the Beatles
are more popular than Christ?

:31:04
When I was talking about him, it was very
close and intimate with this person...

:31:08
that I know, who happens to be a reporter.
:31:10
And I was using expressions on things
that I'd just read, and derived...

:31:14
about Christianity, only I was saying it
in the simplest form that I know...

:31:18
which is the natural way I talk.
:31:20
What's the most enjoyable thing
for you four about this adulation...

:31:24
this almost godhood on earth
that you've achieved?

:31:27
Don't say that.
:31:30
- It was him. He said it.
- You all saw that.

:31:34
The Ku Klux Klan,
being a religious order...

:31:37
is going to come out here the night
that they appear at the Coliseum here.

:31:40
And we're gonna demonstrate with...
:31:44
different ways, tactics,
to stop this performance.

:31:48
We are known as a terror organization
and I think we have...

:31:51
A terror organization?
:31:52
We have ways and means to stop this,
if this is going to be the case.

:31:55
What ways and means?
:31:57
I don't want to say this,
but there will be a lot of surprises...
