i think we agree on everything you're doing everything up until the point of what will bring stability. and i believe that stability with us for. the small difference of its marshall himself i have i have a lot in common with him i support a lot of his views but the people i had an opportunity to encounter in the protest bush lied kids die 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 i have 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 he was a young kid he had here to camouflage on but i don't think using. those people demonstrating that shit their disgrace to our country nancy could serve for that and i need to get out of here and go live with the tears for all i
3:32 am
care. because i said. what are they doing to people that are just going home where they don't know that they're saying you know what you guys what you're doing better all we're doing out there is trying to go out there and make 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 feel like it's feel like there's a spin on it saying you know what you. just this is. i'm not i've never actually thought about this subject before so i can't say really have an opinion. or be neutral so. what do we do we just go by our business like nothing. 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 there. you know like it might be out there. now apathy is the most frustrating. combat.
3:33 am
you can start a discussion or debate with someone who's upset it was. certain to be very draining because in doing this big protest you're sacrificing all this time and energy. to do the other things with and stuff people might even care but really. think a lot of people have a connection like how fast people. in the monty cranch in coffee. in the car sit back turn on the radio an attack outside of baghdad another choppers down pipes will be managed in the center of the town. the evening news comes on the t.v. . two marines are killed planted i mean the big tax.
3:34 am
code book full of money being. two marines are killed two families left to greet. and many are dying overseas. in a war that was dying in the. brain and the brain is just coming having. way to use d.n.a. to move a brain. we're used to yank moving into great days day twelve the end of the second week of walking. through. the woods my buddy gone to get a return to joe dawn and build a wall in. there from veterans for peace their heart was even a korean war the only solar cookies for my mom and my sister made clear out of where you go wrong in a slow going to solar of oh you don't. you're
3:35 am
a good although so we go a bad business day by day. giving little to a warning so far away from the clergy in his side from students not to stand for kids become soldiers. men and women to die overseas. to no wall that was starting. to gain the bright and the brain just coming. in ways d.n.a. the old way or in theory past. may or may be a whole being the brain. mazie a way to rid. the walk over right now. i don't move through yesterday just in from the
3:36 am
low level it was so to do the ultrasound today. first hoping to improve that would. eliminate cancer of the sisters. swarm. but it wasn't so good it's probably cancer or a. nurse started chris and she's trying for more income coming. from coming home. who is or should be there are those who for years. really need to be but it's. slow as important as this war since homeroom porn. star. already .
3:37 am
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 and he said well. keep walking and get a second and keep walking toward for the world war this coming got up the next day and was. thinking that maybe that would be the luster the good of the war i was really happy that he could get out and he could keep walking even though he was scared to death and and devastated with the news. i was charged twelve felony counts for
3:38 am
a possible total sense of one hundred fifty 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 not papers high filter what i could do was expose twenty three years of lies on the basis of treaties and that it might help to solution people for war but expected that 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 i just thought it might help and i was ready to go to prison if it might help i told him again the blacklist for the rest of your life it will be on your record right. and. at that point he said well if that's the case then it will be that i'll be sitting in prison in iran now that i did not order my hands are illegal is just i just want to people in the
3:39 am
military in this city i think there are a lot and have to evaluate what you're being told us to do right. as the guardsman wielder goes around and even them at us and we didn't think that overloaded we're going to be a loaded gun here on campus as it was a college one for why would they have loaded guns the guardsmen on the end of the line 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 and to the groan like someone swinging a sledge hammer like a baseball bat and hitting you like a cartoon image were 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
3:40 am
. do you really think it could happen again yes i think we're going i think it's just waiting to happen because it's been a long time 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 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 police. part 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 are considered holy but it's
3:41 am
. even the mormon manias when they came to the first explorers said surely this is god's first home was the stake. oh in a used car i spent nearly every summer a minute. or so i couldn't walk for was on. the. street with the. key to everything certainly changed a lot of people short of the weather god but he's still the bill if it was a good cancer or not but there was some reasonable doubt. or some reasonable hope that she'd her parents are. really sort of that. you could make a difference this was worth so i think i just like the idea of no more bombs no more screaming no more care no more deaths from like bombs in the nuclear warfare
3:42 am
nuclear north korea nuclear warfare my dad always gets around that nukes to me here . she seems good cook well she was much better than more gun control or change. 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. all over the world from europe from the middle east from australia from china we've got hundreds and hundreds of names and so much support from our setting out of the shoes of our means tears that 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. we don't sign up thank you ah so much for
3:43 am
coming out. and who are so great for the wonder for paper that such a pick our pockets thought. that the fate of black family had something. i'm. never ever ever ever see this kind of. again everyone ever heard of them and close so no they will never have a grant trying to come close they will never enjoy all of the great things start next year provided. for us to be here in a matter of the first day i said you know march kept repeating here. the lesson that we wanted to be we had to be heard thank you for the privilege i'm lucky to get marshall for reminding us of our duty.
3:44 am
as a near the border i was excited i mean this is just like in the film walking did it . despite all the challenges. nobody believed the utah would support peace this much and it has sold all those people back in washington d.c. with all the hearts and warmongers know that utah supports peace. that the wonderful series. because they got caught up in the victory. 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 helped me to dog has walked almost every inch of it with me. i've never been prouder to be utah and then right now so wonderful thing. because it was very much tempered by the sobering thought that the war was still
3:45 am
going. anyone wearing a baseball cap are you 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 cap until taps is completely played and then you can put it back on any questions. thank you. joe down in the buttons for peace walk with me and comforted him but he couldn't for both of them if they do to show don't have a utah for us we are going to go california. today is veterans day and i would just like to thank. all of those that have served and all that are serving some of those the honor are represented by don'ts my group
3:46 am
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 carry myself. and if we learn to grieve as a nation. i think that this will help us feel as a nation someone is the truth today. 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 says i
3:47 am
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 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 and 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 you know right you want to honor to know you're going to do i had a right so yeah and that's a great story that point really felt like the whole interview come full circle. that you're sitting in iraq. and watch him for the fourth of july
3:48 am
about roag proving. that seem to how he dealt with the ghosts of war but protesting that he just hit with such force and that's exactly what i needed to do. and so following his example. because it's only. so reasonable led to listen to him as a vietnam veteran who's been in this real care for almost fourteen years it's an honor there are people you my family my friends and so forth it's. a good life you know young. thinking that. 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 knew how my loyalties can be abused
3:49 am
and so while i still feel that my service is honorable and still for other people service is honorable i could not really. just no matter how much money they offered me the shift in numbers that we've seen recently says that it like the rest of the country are starting to grow tired of the war starting to question the war and starting to question bush's leadership of the war and it happened especially almost coinciding with marshall's watch 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. the children.
3:50 am
and. i have to call attention to that dark angel in their midst and you have to be prepared to accept the wrath of the governments force and as long as you're willing to do that and you do it you can do everything you possibly can you give them your body you know and then you do it nonviolent they 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 except the back as soon as guys come home and say you know don't count me on the back because things got change we fix this things will change i'm a different scrutiny now i. was trying to change things or not i just had to do it i got it bill it. was just me i think it's maybe it's like speed me
3:51 am
ocean to know. it's yours you do what you can you have to make your own statements from your own. hard life and i still michael and i'm down has made that person she breeze sweet she's a sickness in store and this time. push will bring in our brothers sisters home piper peaks march for peace we 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
3:52 am
didn't do it for and their families. but soon the twentieth they're the walk. but to finish up hope it's a good idea i didn't know what to expect when i got involved with the peace we stand there 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 we 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. to children. it's all worth it. in that's the whole
3:53 am
point it's the sincere hope and conviction that nobody else has to. are you going to do a day. like your sorry i did step back from a record three months ago. i was going away for peace part of state utah. let me give me a board to come to the nation's capital and see if i like that i mean really does feel like her make sense the same. until it's clear the. snow.
