8:35 pm
i have a lot in common with him i support a lot of his views but the people they had nothing to do encounter in the protest bush lied kids died yada yada yada michael moore you know fahrenheit nine eleven it's things like that they're completely to the left and jaded but more so i find him very you know very charming intelligent clean cut individual. no animosity for him you know and eventually yes i think if this were a perfect world we would be occupying iraq oh there was another counter protester bringing up the total counter protesters to three and a young kid he had to hear to camouflage on but i don't think he was in the military those people demonstrating that shit their disgrace to our country once again certain for that kind of people need to get out of here and go live with the tears for all i care. because i said. what are they doing to people to troops that are just going home where they don't know that they're saying you know what you guys what you're doing is bad when all we're doing out there is trying to go out there and make
8:36 pm
a difference trying to help trying to trying to make so we can live here trying to make so people don't come here and kill innocent people building trying to do. that still like there's a spinoff saying you know what you. just pissed. i'm not i've never actually thought about the subject before so i can't say really have an opinion. or be neutral. but if we do this american people will just go back our business like nothing. i am now i don't have an opinion because i don't. listen to the news so i don't know anything about iraqi except that we're over there yeah you know like it might be out there at the. combat. you can start a discussion or debate with someone who's. served to be very. busy doing this big protest you're sacrificing all this time and energy you could be doing other things
8:37 pm

8:40 pm
but it wasn't so good it's probably fair to rape. her and started this and she's turning over more of them coming. in from. those i should be there those who for years. i mean to be are those. stores important to sport and so forth. so.
8:41 pm
i knew he wanted to quit because he wanted to be a good dad and he wanted to be there but i also knew that this walk is why he was a good dad as he said well. he walk in we get a second and keep walking toward for the more this kind of got up the next day and was. thinking that maybe that would be the luster the good of the walk i was really happy that he could get out and he could keep walking even though he was scared that and and devastated with the news. i was charged twelve felony counts for a possible total sense of one hundred fifteen years so with good behavior i'd be getting out of two thousand and eight. when i realized that the war was wrong and always get home which i realized when i read the earliest sections of the kind of
8:42 pm
the papers i then filtered what i could do was expose twenty three years of lies from bridge of treatments and that it might help to solution people for war but expected there with seven thousand top secret pagers they would have to use the full extent of the law against me and that there would be basically a life sentence. that's what nixon had in mind to put on i just thought it might help that i was ready to go to prison if it might help i told him to get me blacklisted for the rest of your life it will be on your records right. and. at that point he said well in that case then it will be that i'll be fitting and president before i ran out that i did not order my hands are illegal is just i just want to give people in the military at least cosmetic by case law and have to evaluate what you're being told asked. as the garden will be goes around and even the mattress we didn't think it loaded we're
8:43 pm
going to be loaded gun here on campus this is it was a college one for why would they have loaded guns to the guardsmen on the end of the line and decided to not fire in the direction everybody else was but to turn ninety degrees and pick me off while i was running for cover and the bullet hit me in the abdomen just below my belt and it knocked me through the ear into the ground like someone swinging a sledgehammer like a baseball bat and hitting you like a cartoon image where it flew in the air and landed on the ground i was shot a second time by a guardsman who testified in court that he knew had already been shot once and when they asked him so why did you shoot him he said well everyone else was shooting him . do you really think you could happen again yes i think we're doing it and i think it's just waiting to happen because it's been a long time yet so they can pull this stunt again and i believe it was a stunt i believe this was planned to stop protesting and the more that
8:44 pm
protest in this current now the more i look for it to happen and today just scares ranko big. as my hero and his example really got me into all of this. i remember that he said once that there was a palpable turning point when public opinion really shifted against the war and it marked the beginning of the end of the vietnam war and he said that was kent state walked until he came to sign national park and i could discuss a little bit more at the border in you miles but i really wanted to walk through zion national park the native americans who live there consider the holy place. and even the mormon manias when they came to the first explorers said surely this is god's first home this for the sake. oh in a new star i spent nearly every summer minute. or so i couldn't walk you
8:45 pm
through turkey. because of the. heat everything started and. a lot of people showed the weather god but he still is no if it was a good cancer or not but there was some reasonable doubt. or some reasonable hope that you too have things that. really sort of that. could make a difference this was worth so i think i just like the idea of no more bombs no more screaming no water. no more deaths from like bombs in the nuclear warfare nuclear north korea nuclear warfare my dad always gets me on that new clear. she seems good cook well she was much better than more god started tweeting.
8:46 pm
during the walk we kept getting e-mails from people that said you know i wish i could be there for i really care is there any is there anything i can do and sal and my sister in law got the idea that we have balloons there representing everybody that wanted to be there and e-mails from all over the world from europe from the middle east from australia from china but we've got hundreds and hundreds of names and so much support for setting out of the shoes of our communities tears are real reality for me there's certainly a lot of emotion that goes through when you start reading names looking at names and beliefs and wonder in the story. why not sign up thank you so much for coming out. and who aren't so great for the wonder for paper better than such a big house hotness lock. so grateful that they are flat belly putter. i'm.
8:47 pm
never ever ever ever see this kind of. government ever heard of lemon close so no they will never have a grant trying to come close they will never enjoy all of the great things that make her provided. for us to be here in a matter of the first day i said you know marcia kept repeating that a. good lesson that we wanted to be we had to be thank you for the privilege i'm lucky to get marshall for reminding us of our duty. as they neared the border i was excited i mean this is the slate in the film walk and did it. despite all the challenges. nobody believed the
8:48 pm
support he's this much of that has sold all those people back in washington d.c. with all the hearts and warmongers know that utah supports peace. that is the wonderful thing. because they got caught up in the victories. right now because like a wonderful victory made a five hundred miles and it's thanks to all you into my family and all the wonderful people who told me to dog years walked almost every inch of it with me. i've never been prouder to be utah and then right now so wonderful thing. it was very much tempered by the sobering thought that the war was still going. anyone wearing a baseball cap or coming out to take it off and place it over your left shoulder if you want to is not mandatory and anyone who wants to salute you can slow keep the
8:49 pm
cap until taps is completely played and then you can put it back on any questions. thank you. joe down until buttons for peace walk to and comforted him but he couldn't for both of them if they didn't that show don't have a new thought for us we're going to go california for the. today is their chance today and i would just like to thank. all of those who have served and all that are serving some of those the honor are represented by don'ts my group conference there. that's how my son came home this is a picture of him as he turned twenty one. it was his last birthday. today and i asked you all to help me carry my grief. because it's very hard to
8:50 pm
carry myself. and if we learn to grieve as a nation. i think that this will help us deal as a nation so one is the trans day. we honor on the family thank you. martin luther king said a time comes when silence is betrayal a time comes like the time we're in right now at this moment. when anything other then raise your voice opposition to this. is a betrayal of this country that we call the so don't take me to one side he says big i want you to meet wrong kovac. and. i had no idea and also there's frank who pick right in front of me you just have this or
8:51 pm
someone who spent his life doing good things and i think there is no greater right here that could be part of the peace process right now in golf in bringing him into this forest children's hospital dealing missed nation and committing ourselves to never allow what happened in the iraq war in vietnam to never happen again i told him that i'd seen born in the fourth of july in iraq and it really made him happy to write you one of the cornerstone you'll remember what i knew i had to write so yeah and that's a story that point really felt like the whole interview come full circle. that you're sitting in iraq. and watch it for the fourth of july about rogue hoover. and see how he dealt with the ghosts of war but protesting that he just hit with such force of that's exactly what i needed to do. and so
8:52 pm
following his example. because it's only. so reasonable they drilled into him as a vietnam veteran who's been in this real care for almost fourteen years it's an honor to call you my brother and my friend and so forth it's a. good life you know on. thank you. i'm driving down right now to go turn in all my equipment and so i can get out of the army the army offered me a twenty thousand dollars reenlistment bonus in iraq so there's been one lump sum tax-free twenty thousand dollars after iraq and you how my loyalties can be abused and so while i still feel that my service is honorable and still for other people service is honorable i. could not realist no matter how much money they offered me the shift in numbers that we've seen recently says that it does indeed utahns like the rest of the country are starting to grow tired of course starting to question
8:53 pm
the war and starting to question bush's leadership of the war and it happened especially almost coinciding with marshall's walk and i don't i don't know how many utahns marshall himself swayed to the other side it certainly wasn't just the walk but there were tons of other people doing things there's military families speak out in very active in salt lake there's rocky anderson and the norwalk is part of that so it feels really good. to see. children. and. i have to call attention to that dark angel in our midst and you have to be prepared to accept the wrath of the governments force and as long as you're willing
8:54 pm
to do that and you do it none but let me do everything you possibly can you give them your body you know and then you do it nonviolently you do it lovingly hell i even try to do it with a sense of humor you know it's no big deal searching. nothing's going to change until a guy's coming home and accepting a pat on the back as soon as guys come home and say you know don't cut me on the back because things got change we got to be all fix this things will change in a different scrutiny now i. was trying to change things or not i just had to do it i got to do it. not just me i think it's maybe it's like spit in the ocean you know. it's yours you do what you care and you have to make your own state . but from your own heart. and i still michael and i'm down has made that a person should brace ricci's illness instead and this time.
8:55 pm
push will bring in our brothers sisters home piper peaks march for peace stand for peace and leave. to play a game from. it is a time of hope our time to believe that peace can come that we can and just for that we can change the priorities of our country that we can move in a new and dynamic direction that we can make this an america that we can all be proud of that the sacrifice of our young men and women in iraq a must not be undone by. the only regret. is that i didn't do it correctly i mean. the sooner the twentieth there the walk. but to finish up hope it's
8:56 pm
a good idea i don't know what to expect when i got involved with the peace corps standing here for peace to excite it really renewed my faith in people and humanity and it's really reinforced my patriotism activists have a lot of different reasons for getting involved but in the end it all comes down to this it comes down to the hope that what you're doing to commit the world a better place and they could maybe even save a life. because. if what we're doing could save one person's life and that justifies all the embarrassment all the sacrifice all the pains of public protest. children. die it's all worth it. in that's the whole point it's the sincere hope and conviction that nobody else has to do. are you going to do a day. like your sorry i did step back from
8:57 pm
a record three months ago. that i was going provide food or pay for the state utah. let me give me a block to come to the nation's capital a suicide like that for me really does look like her would make sense the same. until it's clear the. snow. sleet. snow mr see. the sun comes up.
