:26:02
Nobody dared.
:26:05
We got a real peaceful
community down here, Anderson.

:26:08
Course, they're just like any other folks,
I reckon, when you push 'em too far.

:26:13
The way I figure it,
it's like three sticks of old dynamite.

:26:17
You shake it up... and we're gonna
be scrapin' bodies off the street.

:26:23
I'm just here to investigate the missing
three kids, ask some questions.

:26:27
If this all boiled down to gravy...
:26:29
...there wouldn't be enough
to cover a chicken-fried steak.

:26:32
Them kids you're lookin' for? I'd bet you a
shiny new dime they're in Chicago now...

:26:39
...drinkin' a cold beer and havin' a laugh
about the commotion they stirred up here.

:26:45
Well, I sure hope so.
:26:47
You can tell your bosses people got
the wrong idea about the South.

:26:52
You know what I'm talkin' about.
:26:54
Everybody runnin' around ragged,
backwards and illiterate...

:26:58
...eatin' sowbelly and corn pone
three times a day.

:27:01
Simple fact is, Anderson,
we got two cultures down here.

:27:05
White culture and a colored culture.
:27:09
That's the way it always has been.
That's the way it always will be.

:27:13
- The rest of America don't see it that way.
- The rest of America don't mean jack shit.

:27:18
You in Mississippi now.
:27:21
Oh, that's for sure!
:27:25
- What's the score, Mr. Barber?
- St Louis on top, five to nothing.

:27:29
- What inning is it?
- Bottom of the seventh.

:27:31
- You like baseball, Anderson?
- Yeah, I do. You know...

:27:36
...it's the only time when a black man
can wave a stick at a white man...

:27:42
...and not start a riot.
:27:59
Sir.
