:19:02
They're sent here in their
Volkswagens and sneakers...
:19:05
...just to get their heads cracked open.
:19:07
Did it ever occur to you that maybe
they believed in what they were doing?
:19:11
- Did it occur to them they'd end up dead?
- Maybe.
:19:15
In Washington they sure as hell knew,
didn't they?
:19:18
Some things are worth dying for.
:19:23
Well, down here
they see things a little differently.
:19:27
People down here feel
some things are worth killin' for.
:19:34
Where does it come from, all this hatred?
:19:40
You know, when I was a little boy...
:19:43
...there was an old Negro farmer lived
down the road from us, name of Monroe.
:19:47
And he was... Well, I guess he was just
a little luckier than my daddy was.
:19:57
He bought himself a mule.
:20:00
That was a big deal around that town.
:20:03
My daddy hated that mule.
:20:06
His friends kidded him that they saw
Monroe ploughin' with his new mule...
:20:11
...and Monroe was gonna rent
another field now that he had a mule.
:20:18
One morning that mule
just showed up dead.
:20:23
They poisoned the water.
:20:26
After that there was never any mention
about that mule around my daddy.
:20:34
One time we were drivin' past
Monroe's place and we saw it was empty.
:20:39
He'd just packed up and left, I guess.
Gone up North or somethin'.
:20:45
I looked over at my daddy's face...
:20:50
...and I knew he'd done it.
:20:52
And he saw that I knew.
:20:54
He was ashamed.
:20:57
I guess he was ashamed.
