:55:03
My client is clearly under
an enormous strain as a result...

:55:08
...of the questioning of Mr. Clyde.
He’s not responsible for his comments.

:55:13
-We wish to invoke the 5th Amendment.
-No, we don’t.

:55:16
-We do.
-No, we don’t, so knock it off!

:55:21
Shut up and let me get through this.
The 5th Amendment is off the table.

:55:27
But there is another Amendment
I’d like to invoke.

:55:32
I wonder if anyone here
is familiar with it.

:55:37
"Congress shall make no law respecting
an establishment of religion."

:55:42
You’re out of order!
:55:44
"Shall make no law...
:55:46
-...respecting--"
-My chamber will come to order!

:55:50
"An establishment of religion...
:55:53
...or prohibiting
free exercise thereof...

:55:56
...or abridging freedom of speech,
or of the press...

:55:59
....or of the right to petition
for a redress of grievances."

:56:05
Do not presume to lecture
this Committee!

:56:08
The First Amendment. It’s what
we’re about, if we’d live up to it.

:56:13
Let him talk. He’s hanging himself.
:56:15
It’s part of the contract
every citizen has here.

:56:19
Even though the Constitution
and the Bill of Rights...

:56:23
...are just pieces of paper
with signatures on them...

:56:28
...they’re the only contracts we have
that are definitely not subject...

:56:33
...to renegotiation.
:56:35
-Not by you, Mr. Chairman.
-Mr. Appleton!

:56:38
-Not by you, Mr. Clyde.
-Stand down!

:56:41
Not by anyone, ever.
:56:44
Too many people have paid in blood.
:56:47
Enough, sir! You are out of order!
:56:55
People like Luke Trimble...
