And I'm not gonna sit here and say,
''I was just this boId guy, no fear.''

:52:07
I was scared.
:52:10
I was very vocaI in this community
when this happened...

:52:13
...so I thought,
''ShouId we caII the Bishop...

:52:17
''...and ask him permission to do the vigiI?''
:52:20
And I was Iike:
:52:23
''HeII, no, I'm not going to do that.
:52:26
''His permission doesn't make it correct.''
:52:29
And I'm not knocking bishops...
:52:31
...but what is correct is correct.
:52:35
You think vioIence is
what they did to Matthew?

:52:40
They did do vioIence to Matthew.
:52:42
But, you know....
:52:45
Can I make this personaI?
:52:47
Yeah. Sure.
:52:49
Every time you are caIIed a fag...
:52:54
...or you are caIIed a Iez or....
:52:57
-Or a dyke.
-Dyke, yeah, dyke.

:53:01
Do you reaIize that is vioIence?
That is the seed of vioIence.

:53:05
I wouId resent it immenseIy
if you use anything I said to...

:53:10
...somehow cuItivate that kind of vioIence.
:53:14
WeII, thank you, Father, for saying that.
:53:17
Just deaI with what is true.
:53:20
You know what is true.
:53:25
You need to do your best to say it correct.
:53:31
These peopIe trust us, you know.
They want....

:53:36
They want everyone to know
that they are not this crime.

:53:43
And it's more than cIearing laramie's
name, it's cIearing their own, and...

:53:48
...I don't know that we can do that.
