coped with the law.
:51:04
Should squatting be legalized?
:51:07
I could work on it,
if not for this robe.

:51:12
But your robe is lovely!
:51:14
It was a simple case
of youngsters vandalizing things.

:51:18
I found them guilty of violence.
:51:20
Before bleach was sprayed on?
:51:22
They'd knock over the trash
:51:25
and my staff had
to clean up after them.

:51:31
That led me to apply the law
:51:35
and bleach the trash,
which they didn't appreciate.

:51:39
- We got angry.
- But nothing serious.

:51:41
We knocked over trash cans,
:51:44
and damaged the wall
with graffiti and tomatoes.

:51:48
They broke the camera.
:51:50
It was locked,
we had to climb a little.

:51:53
They went over the fence.
:51:56
They were trespassing
on private property.

:51:59
Appearing in court
was itself a penalty

:52:02
for these youths
who want to be free of all rules.

:52:05
We only stole trash.
:52:07
The aim isn't to fine them
but to remind them of the law.

:52:13
They all played their part,
applying their own logic.

:52:17
The kids said
what they were supposed to.

:52:19
We filmed them with their dogs.
It was picturesque.

:52:23
I'm not that antisocial.
:52:27
- May I ask you how old you are?
- 22.

:52:29
Their beauty is poignant when you
realize that, for whatever reason,

:52:34
they get most of their food
from trash cans.

:52:38
In court, I was told
:52:40
it was a dialogue of the deaf,
but not of the dumb.

:52:44
They seized the chance
to have fun.

:52:46
I said she was mad,
she cited me for contempt of court.

:52:50
We said she was out of her mind,
and she would go: Write it down!

:52:55
Recorder, write down:
Out of her mind!

:52:58
We felt it was a foregone
conclusion. It was sickening.
