01:18.2 ROBBIE(OFF) THE COPS DON’T LIKE TO COME OUT HERE AND THIS PLACE IS BUILT ON BEING LEFT ALONE BY THE AUTHORITIES
01:26.3 ROBBIE PEOPLE SAY TO THE GOV’T FUCK YOU, CHINCA TU MADRE, WE DON’T WANT YOUR GOV’T AND YOU CAN GET OUT OF HERE
01:42.4 MAMA PHYLLIS ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS THAT LEAVE YOU WHEN YOU FIRST MOVE O HERE ARE YOUR BOUNDARIES, BECAUSE THERE ARE NO BOUNDARIES.
01:51.5 MAMA PHYLLIS THERE ARE VERY FEW RULES WE HAVE OUT HERE, THE BASIC RULES ARE YOU DON’T STEAL FROM YOUR NEIGHBOR, YOU DON’T SHOOT YOUR NEIGHBOR
02:03.0 COWBOY(OFF) WE DON’T DIAL 911, WE DIAL 357… 357 MAGNUM
02:20.2 STAN(OFF) I AM MY OWN MAN HERE
02:22.2 STAN I DON’T HAVE TO CONFORM TO ANYONE, I CAN LIVE IT LIKE I WANNA
02:36.4 MAINE(OFF) WHAT DAY IT IS AND WHAT MONTH IT IS KIND OF IRRELEVANT OUT HERE IT DOESN’T REALLY MATTER IF IT’S TUESDAY OR WEDNESDAY OCTOBER OR SEPTEMBER OR, NONE OF THAT REALLY MATTERS.
02:49.5 JEFF(OFF) WHEN I TURN OFF OF THE HIGHWAY AND GO ACROSS THE CATTLE GARD ONTO THE ROAD THAT I LIVE ON I FEEL THAT I AM REALLY IN AMERICA, THERE IS A REAL SENSE OF FREEDOM OUT THERE
03:00.0 JEFF(OFF) WHERE I LIVE IS THE LAST REMAINING LAND OF AMERICA THAT IS LEFT, YOU CAN DO WHAT YOU FUCKING WANT THERE, IT IS THE LAST PART OF AMERICA WITH ALMOST TRUE FREEDOM
03:39.4 JEFF IT IS PHYSICALLY HARDER TO LIVE OUT HERE, YOU HAVE TO CHOP YOUR OWN FIREWOOD, AND YOU HAVE TO HAUL YOUR DRINKING WATER. BECAUSE THERE IS NO WATER OUT HERE, YOU’VE GOT TO HAUL YOUR TRASH OUT OF HERE, WHICH I NEED TO GET A TRUCK SO I CAN DO THAT MYSELF. THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT LIVE WITHOUT MONEY AND IF YOU ‘VE GOT POT YOU CAN TRADE FOR JUST ABOUT ANYTHING, YOU DON’T NEED MONEY.ITS VERY OPEN
04:05.0 JEFF(OFF) WHERE I LIVE YOU DON’T WANT A NICE VEHICLE BECAUSE ITS GONNA GET TORN UP, DRIVING UP AND DOWN THEM ROADS, THE ROAD I LIVE ON EATS CARS.
04:31.3 JEFF ALRIGHT, AND THAT’S MY ADVENTURE DAILY, ON A DAILY BASIS GETTING IN AND OUT OF HERE. SO, HOME SWEET HOME.
04:34.3 JEFF I AM IN THE PROCESS OF BUILDING THIS THING; I BARELY GOT A ROOF ON IT, WO ITS WARM. THIS IS MY COOK STOVE, I PAID 50 DOLLARS FOR THIS THING, THE STOVE IS ACTUALLY MORE OF A HEAT SOURCE THAN A COOK STOVE.THROW SOME MORE IN HERE, TO KEEP IT GOING. IT’S A REAL PAIN IN THE ASS TO START THIS THING. THE SOLAR PANELS I TRADED A HALF OUNCE OF POT FOR.
05:01.0 JEFF I GREW UP IN THE MILITARY. I JOINED THE ARMY WHEN I WAS 17 YEARS OLD. IN THE MILITARY YOU DO NOT CALL ONE OF THESE A GUN. IF YOU DO THEY MAKE YOU GET UP IN FRONT OF EVERYONE AND SAY THIS IS FOR KILLING THIS IS FOR FUN. IT’S LIKE THIS IS NOT A GUN IT’S A WEAPON.LAUGHS.
05:33.3 JEFF(OFF) MY MILITARY OATH, YOUR MILITARY OATH IS NOT TO DEFEND THIS LAND, NOT TO DEFEND THE PEOPLE, NOT TO DEFEND THE MOTHER FUCKING PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. MY MILITARY OATH GOES. I SOLEMLY SWARE TO DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FROM ALL ENEMIES FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC. AND AS FAR AS WHAT I KNOW THIS FUCKING GOV’T THAT IS IN PLACE RIGHT NOW, I S THE BIGGEST ENEMY I KNOW TO THE CONSTITUTION OF AMERICA
06:16.2 JEFF(OFF) I GUESS YOU WOULD CALL ME A PATRIOT, BECAUSE I BELIEVE IN THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
06:25.2 JEFF I WAS IN THE MILITARY DURING THE GULF WAR, AND I THOUGHT WHAT WE WAS DOING WAS RIGHT, AT THAT TIME. THEN I COME BACK HOME AFTER THAT AND THERE IS SO MUCH MORE INFORMATION THAN WHAT THE MILITARY WAS TELLING US. I WAS JUST OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL WHEN I WENT IN AND THEN YOU GO THROUGH THE WHOLE MILITARY BRAIN WASHING AND THEN YOU COME BACK OUT INTO THE REAL WORLD AND LIKE UNBRAINWASH YOURSELF AND A….FIGURE OUT WHAT IS REALLY IMPORTANT TO YOU AT THE SAME TIME
07:06.1 MAINE(0FF) I THINK A LOT OF VETERANS LIVE OUT HERE, BECAUSE THEY CAN LIVE OFF THE GRID TO AN EXTENT WHERE IT’S NOT A HARDSHIP FOR THEM. WHERE OTHER PEOPLE MIGHT SEE IT AS A HARDSHIP THEY SEE IT AS DISNEY LAND.
07:26.3 MAINE MY FRIENDS CALL ME MAINE. I SERVED TEN YEARS AS A SECOND LEUTENANT ON THE 82ND AIR BORNE DIVISION. I WAS DEPLOYED TO IRAQ IN 1990. I CAME DOWN WITH WHAT THEY CALL GULF WAR SYNDROME.
07:50.5 MAINE IT’S A LITTLE BALL AND IT GOES UP INTO MY JUGULAR VAIN. I WAS IN THE RE-CON UNIT AND OUR JOB WAS TO GO AND ADVANCE OBOVE THE BATALIANS? AND FIND STASHES OF WEAPONS AND DISPOSE OF THEM. THERE WERE HOLE DIVISIONS OF GUYS WHO COULD BE LIKE WE WERE HERE AT THIS SPOT ON TAKREET ON THIS DAY AND WE DISPOSING OF ORDIANCE AND THERE WAS NO DOUBT IN MY MIND THAT THEY WERE CHEMICAL WEAPONS.
08:19.0 MAINE AT ONE POINT EVERYTHING THAT WENT ON THE HIGHWAY THAT GOT BLOWN TO FUCK. AND THEN WHEN WE CAME IN THERE WAS NOTHING BUT BLOWN UP VEHICLES AND BODIES ALL OVER THE GOD DAMN ROAD. AND YOU GET DESENSITIZED TO IT BECAUSE YOU SEE IT SO MUCH. AFTER YOU HAVE SEEN IT A BUNCH OF TIMES. YOU HAVE SEEN ONE DEAD GUY YA IT WILL FUCK YOU UP A LITTLE BIT. YOU SEE 15 DEAD GUYS, IS THE 16TH DEAD GUY GONNA FUCK YOU BRAIN U? NO, HE BECOMES ANOTHER PIECE OF CACTUS. NO YOU JUST DRIVE BY. YOU DON’T THINK ABOUT IT. BUT EVENTUALLY YOU WILL. EVENTUALLY YOU WILL REMEMBER THAT. THAT IS WHY THEY CALL IT POST TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER. BECAUSE IT HAPPENS AFTER THE FACT.
09:01.0 MAINE I HAVE NEVER MET ANYONE THAT CAME OUT OF A COMBAT SITUATION AND WAS ABLE TO GO RIGHT BACK INTO SOCIETY. IT TAKES A LITTLE TIME YOU NEED TO BE OUT ALONE, A LITTLE BIT OF AIR. IF YOU ARE LUCKY ENOUGH YOU GET YOURSELF A GIRL AND REDISCOVER THE JOYS OF JUST BEING THERE WITHOUT ANY FUCKING HASSLES, WITHOUT ANYONE FUCKING WITH YOU
09:28.3 (OFF) MAMA PHYLLIS FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER, WE HAVE A LARGE POPULATION OF VETS WITH PTSD, POST TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER. WE HAVE OTHER PEOPLE WHO ARE JUST MENTALLY ILL.
09:47.5 MAMA PHYLLIS(OFF) WE GET A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO ARE COMING THROUGH, WHO NEED A PLACE TO BE, AND WHO NEED A PLACE TO JONES, A PLACE TO GET BETTER. THEY GO OFF AND THEY COME BACK
10:01.0 MAMA PHYLLIS (ON) I AM A NURTURER, THAT’S WHO I AM.I WAS BORN A CANCER. AND THIS IS A PERFECT PLACE FOR ME TO DO THAT. I MEAN I DID IT FOR 20 YEARS AS A PSYCHIATRIC NURSE. YOU KNOW. AND I CAN’T DO THAT ANYMORE. SO, I AM HERE, DOING IT HERE. IT IS THE LARGEST OUTDOOR INSANE ASYLUM; IT’S WHERE YOU CAN LET YOUR FREAK FLAG FLY. IF YOU’RE NOT INSANE YOU WILL BE.
10:27.3 MAMA PHYLLIS I DON’T KNOW HALF THE PEOPLES NAMES OUT HERE AND THERE IS A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO COME HERE FOR SOLITUDE BECAUSE THEY CAN’T FIND IT OUT THERE. OR THERE MENTAL ILLNESS HAS TAKEN TO SUCH AN EFFECT THAT THEY BELIEVE THE ONLY WAY TO SAVE THEMSLEVES IS TO BE OUT HERE WHERE THEY ARE ANONYMOUS.
11:03.0 GENE (OFF) MY NAME IS GENE, I SERVED IN THE FIRST GULF WAR
11:10.1 BOY OW OW SMOKEY

11:54.5 GECKO YEAH THAT’S FUN HUH.
EVERYONE BORROWS SOMETHING OUT HERE, AND IT GETS RETURNED IN SOME OTHER WAY.
12:02.0 GECKO OUR WHOLE BIG THING WAS TO COME OUT HERE, IT CHANGED OUR LIVES.
12:05.1 GECKO MY KIDS AREN’T IN SCHOOL ANYMORE. I TOOK MY KIDS OUT OF SCHOOL. THEY ARE BEING HOME SCHOOLED. THEY ARE LEARNING BASICALLY “OLD SCHOOL”
THIS IS WHAT YOU DO TO LIVE. THIS IS HOW YOU BOIL WATER; THIS IS HOW YOU MAKE A PANCAKE. THIS IS HOW YOU MEASURE.
12:18.2 GECKO’S BOYS THE MESA’S AWESOME. WE USED TO DRIVE A CAR YA THAT’S FUN. WE LIKE DRIVING CARS AND WE USED TO SHOOT A GUN TIL WE BROKE IT. THIS IS HOW YOU DRIVE A CAR. THIS IS WHAT YOU DO IN DRIVING……..
(MACHINE GUN NOICE MADE BY KIDS)
12:32.3 GECKO MY WIFE SHE GETS TWISTED AROUND A LOT. AND SHE HAS JUST STAYED IN CONNECTICUT TO LONG. AND THEY ALL GOT TO HER. AND THEY WERE LIKE YOU CAN’T MOVE OUT THERE. SHE CAME OUT HERE AND SHE WAS LIKE NO I CAN’T MOVE OUT THERE. MY KIDS ARE LIVING BETTER NOW THAN THEY HAVE EVER LIVED IN THEIR LIVES. AND MY WIFE WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND THAT.
13:23.2 GECKO(OFF) EVERYONE OUT ON THIS MESA SHOULD BE ON SOME SORT OF MEDICATION. WE SELF MEDICATE. SMOKE A LITTLE POT AND RELAX YOURSELF.
13:31.3 GECKO YOU DON’T PUT A BIG SIGN ON YOUR HOUSE SAYING I GOT POT. BUT YOU GO KNOCK ON SOMEONES DOOR AND SAY”HEY YOU SMOKE, YOU GO IN AND GET SMOKED UP“
WHEN PEOPLE SMOKE POT OUT HERE, EVERYONE IS CALM COOL, BUT WHEN THERE IS A DRY SPELL, AND PEOPLE START TURNING TO ALCOHOL AND COCAINE AND METH AMPHEDOMIENS. DUDE SHIT GETS RECKED. BUT WHEN THE POT COMES TO TOWN, WHEN EVERYONE DONE GROWING, MID SEASON MAN, EVERYONE COOL. IT JUST CALMS EVERYONE DOWN
04:05.0 MOONBOW LAST YEAR WHAT THEY DID, THEY FLEW HELICOPTERS AROUND, AND IF ANYONE HAD A GREEN HOUSE, THEY WENT TO THAT PLACE,
14:11.1 COWBOY AND WE JUST WATCHED THEM COME ACROSS THE MESA, CROUCHED DOWN WITH CAMEL FATIGUES ON; BDU’S AND THEY WERE COMING ACROSS THE SAGE WITH RIFALS AND SHOT GUNS.
14:22.2 JEFF AND THEN THEY BUSTED ABOUT, I THINK IT WAS ABOUT 5 PEOPLE THAT THEY BUSTED FOR GROWING POT. AND THEY DIDN’T HAVE WARRENTS FOR ANY OF THIS. THEN JUST WENT DOWN THAT ROAD AND BASICALLY WENT INTO EVERY HOUSE ON THAT ROAD WITHOUT A WARRANT. AND THEN IF THEY FOUND POT, THEN THEY WENT AND GOT THEIR WARRANT.
14:45.4 RAVEN UMM IT WAS SO INSANE TO BE THERE RIGHT WHEN IT WAS HAPPENING.
YOU KNOW IT HAPPENED ALL THE WAY FROM WHAT IT SEEMED FROM SANTA FE
14:54.5 JEFF SO THEY HAD HELICOPTERS ALL OF THE STATE THAT DAY?
14:57.6 RAVEN THEY DID, THEY HAD THE SAME HELICOPTERS AND IT JUST LOOKED LIKE IT WAS FROM ALL OVER THE STATE.
AND THESE GUYS CAME ALL THE WAY FROM TOWN AND KEPT ME TRAPPED IN A CAR FOR 4 HOURS, WHILE THEY BURNED DOWN THIS OTHER GUYS HOUSE.
15:12.1 NEWS ANCHOR(ON) (ON)
A NORTHERN NEW MEXICO MAN ACCUSED OF GROWING LARGE AMOUNTS OF MARIJUANA IS FACING SERIOUS CHARGES TONIGHT. POLICE ARE SAYING HE SET THE EVIDENCE ON FIRE ALONG WITH HIS HOME AND NEARLY A DOZEN OF HIS DOGS.
15:26.3 NEWS ANCHOR STATE POLICE AND SHERIFF DEPUTIES WENT TO DEAN MAHER’S HOME YESTERDAY. THEY SAY THEY COULD SEE MARIJUANA GROWING IN HIS GREEN HOUSE. AFTER A 15 MINUTE STAND OFF. THE POLICE SAY HE CAME OUT OF HIS HOUSE, BUT LOCKED HIS DOG INSIDE. 11 OF THOSE DOGS WERE KILLED.
15:41.4 DEAN THEY HAD NO WARRANT. 4 HOURS LATER THEY GAVE ME A WARRANT. THEY JUMPED ACROSS THE FENCE AND DRAGGED ME OVER THE FENCE WHEN I COULD HAVE PUT OUT THE FIRE. THEY DIDN’T EVEN ATTEMPT TO HELP ANY OF THE ANIMALS THAT WERE ON THE CHAINS THIS DOG WAS THE ONLY DOG THAT SURVIVED AND I LOST MY FAMILY. THEY HAVE ALL BEEN BURIED BACK HERE. RAISED THEM ALL FROM PUPPIES.
16:22.2 DEAN WHEN I FIRST CAME OUT HERE. I WAS SITTING AT THE CATTLE CROSS AND I WAS ASKING GOD FOR A PLACE TO STAY AND FOR $100 A MONTH. AND FOR 22 MONTHS I PLAYED A GUITAR AT THE BRIDGE, THE RIO GRANDE BRIDGE. AND SAVED THE MONEY UP AND BOUGHT THIS HOUSE. I WORKED ALL THIS LAND BEFORE THIS HAPPENED. I NEVER WENT NO WHERE. OH IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL PLACE.
16:53.5 DEAN I WAS IN THE ARMY; IN A I THINK IT WAS 73’. I JOINED THE MILITARY BECAUSE I WANTED TO FIGHT FOR MY COUNTRY WHEN I FIRST WENT IN THERE. OH I LOVED IT.
MY PLAN NOW. WELL I AM MENTALLY UNSTABLE RIGHT NOW SO THEY ARE TRYING TO WORK OUT A MEDICAL THING. SO I CAN JUST LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER ON DRUGS AND MEDICATION AND WITH A GOVERNMENT CHECK PROBABLY. THEN I WON’T BOTHER SOCIETY.
17:31.3 ROBBBIE (MUSIC)
IT WAS THE AWFUL SMOKE AND FLAMES ROSE HIGHER, HE RAN OUT THE DOOR TO GET OUT OF THE FIRE, BUT THE DOOR BLEW SHUT, AND IT TRAPPED HIS DOGS, AND THE COPS JUMPED ON HIM LIKE A BUNCH OF HOGS. “SNORT SNORT SOUND”
HIDDY HIDDY HIDDY HIDDY HI, HODDY HODDY HODDY HO
WELL MY FRIEND WENT TO JAIL, THAT’S EASY TO TELL, BUT I HOPE HIS LIFE ISN’T SOME KIND OF HELL. IF HE GETS TO COURT I HOPE THEY WILL UNDERSTAND HE WAS ONLY DOING THE BEST HE CAN.
18:05.0 (GROUP) HIDDY HIDDY HIDDY HIDDY HI, HODDY HODDY HODDY HO
ROBBIE WELL, HIS DREAMS ARE DUST, THERE IS NOTHING THERE, BUT GRAVES AND MARKERS AND PIECES OF HAIR, HIS DREAMS ARE DUST, I SAID THERE IS NOTHING TO DO, EXCEPT MAKE SURE IT DOESN’T GO AND HAPPEN TO YOU
18:32.3 (COWBOY)(OFF) AMEN
18:35.3 ROBBIE(OFF) IT WAS A PIVITOL EVENT AND A WATERSHED. WELL IT AFFECTED EVERYTHING.
01:18.48:17(ON) ROBBIE I CAME HERE IN ABOUT 94’ THERE ABOUTS. AT THAT TIME WHEN I CAME HERE, THERE WAS ABOUT A DOZEN PEOPLE OUT HERE, SOME OF THEM WERE OLD CHRISTIANS, AND OTHERS WERE BEGINNING TO COME IN WERE LIKE MYSELF. MORE OR LESS,MIDDLE AGED HIPPIES
19:03.0 ROBBIE I WENT TO EXITOR AND PRINCETON, LIKE MY FATHER AND GRANDFATHER. I STUDIED A LOT OF SCIENCE.
SEE THESE, SACRED LITTLE PLANTS, THAT’S HOPIE BLUE CORN, THAT WAS GIVEN BY THE HOPIE MANY YEARS AGO.
19:23.2 ROBBIE I AM GLAD THAT I AM HERE IN THIS COMMUNITY AND I AM A STABLEIZING INFLUENCE. I AM TRYING TO STEER THE VIBES. I AM TRYING TO BE THE STEERSMAN OR TRY TO GET AN EXTRA ORE ON THE HELMSMAN AND TRY TO STEER THE COMMUNITY IN ONE DIRECTION OR ANOTHER. AND I AM STEERING THE COMMUNITY TOWARDS PEACE.
19:42.4 MAMA PHYLLIS (on) WE ARE ALL GOING TO RANDEZ-VOUS AT A DROP SPOT WHERE FOOD COMES IN A VERY LARGE TRUCK AND THEN SMALL ORGANIZATIONS FROM TOWN WHO GET THE FREE FOOD, COME THERE AND THEY TAKE IT TO THEIR APPROPRIATE SPOTS
20:00.0 MUSIC ROBBIE BIG PURPLE GRAPES BURSTING OFF OF THE VINE, FUZZY SOFT PIECES THEY ARE YOUR’S AND THEY ARE MINE.

THIS LAND THAT WE LOVE, IT CAN FEED ALL THE FREE, IF THE GROCERS AND STORE KEEPERS STILL LOVE YOU AND ME.
(POTATOS, THERE YOU GO)( DEAN MAHER)
(OFF) ARE YOU THAT LITTLE BUNNY RABBIT?)
WE KNOW HOW HARD IT IS MAKING A LIVING. BUT THE RICHES AROUND US INSPIRE US TO GIVING. DON’T THEY KNOW?
20:54.5 ELISE FOOD IS THE ONE THING THAT ANYBODY CAN AGREE UPON. BECAUSE HUNGER….IT RULES….THIRST IT RULES.
21:12.1 JEREMY(OFF) IF YOU DIDN’T DO THIS WOULD IT BE HARD FOR PEOPLE ON THE MESA TO GET FOOD?
21:16.2 MAMA PHYLLIS FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE IT IS, BECAUSE THEY DON’T HAVE MONEY, THEY DON’T GET FOOD STAMPS, THEY DON’T HAVE A RIDE IN, THEY CAN’T BRING IT ALL BACK
21:27.3 WIREWRAP JAY HOW ABOUT BREAD STAN?
21:28.3 STAN YES

AND THEY TRUMPED ONE OF THEM, DOWN IN, DOWN INTO WHERE IT COULDN’T GET OUT TO SUCK, AND I HEARD IT SQUEAKIN AND I WENT AND GOT IT OUT. AND I PUT IT IN A SOCK, AND I PUT IT IN BED WITH ME, TO KEEP IT WARM.
22:36.4 STAN WELL I HAVE ALWAYS TOOK IN STRAYS. LOOK U KNOW. WELL LIKE SOME KIDS THEY NEED HELP, RUNAWAYS.
I HAVE A CAMPER BACK HERE, THAT I LET PEOPLE USE AND WHEN SOMEODY’S NEEDING A PLACE, AND I GOT A LITTLE HOUSE, ON THE SIDE OVER THERE, THAT I LET PEOPLE STAY IN YOU KNOW.
22:59.6 STAN THIS LITTLE HOUSE HERE WAS ONE OF EM, THAT ONE OF THE GIRLS THAT RUN AWAY SHE BUILT. SHE BUILT ON IT, AND WORKED ON IT HARD AND SHE HAD A LITTLE BIT OF HELP FROM HER FRIENDS. BUT SHE DONE IT.
23:15.1 STAN THERE IS USUALLY ONE OR TWO, SOMETIMES FOUR OR FIVE A YEAR. THEY DON’T EVEN HAVE A GALLON JUG TO PACK WATER IN, YOU KNOW
BUT I HAVE LIVED LIKE THIS, HAULING WATER AND MY SHEEP, HAD SHEEP CAMPS. SO I HAVE LIVED LIKE THIS ALL MY LIFE, PRACTICALLY.
23:35.3 VIRGINIA I AM NOT A WOOSE, I WILL BE CAREFUL
23:41.4 STAN I KNOW BUT THIS THING CAN KICK BACK ON YOU
23:51.5 VIRGINIA MY BOYFRIEND TOLD ME HE WANTS ME TO LEAVE. I AM GOING TO TALK TO STAN, ABOUT STAYING WITH HIM, BECAUSE I LIKE HIM AND I THINK HE NEEDS HELP. THAT’S HOW YOU CUT A PIECE OF LOG.
24:25.2 VIRGINIA STAN’S HERE TO HELP AND I’M GOING TO BE HIS LITTLE HELPER, AND I THINK IT WILL BE GOOD FOR ME.
24:31.3 VIRGINIA AWW, MY ARM HURTS.
24:39.4 VIRGINIA I GOT TAKEN AWAY FROM MY BIOLOGICAL MOM BECAUSE SHE WAS A HEROIN ADDICT AND A PROSTITUTE AND SHE SHOT ME UP WITH HEROIN TWICE.
24:48.5 VIRGINIA I LEFT HOME WHEN I WAS 16 AND I WENT TO OLYMPIA, AND FROM OLYMPIA I WENT TO TOUSON.
VIRGINIA MY WHOLE LIFE I WAS A OUTCAST AND I NEVER HAD FRIENDS. AND SO WHEN I CAME TO THE MESA, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN EVERYBODY…I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW, AND PEOPLE WOULD COME UP HUGGING ME AND SAY”HI SISTER”
STAN MAYBE THE GOOD LORD HAD A PLAN FOR ME, BECAUSE OUT HERE, BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO HELP SO MANY MORE THAN WHAT I HAVE.
TREAT YOU AS ONE OF MINE…ANOTHER ONE.
25:23.2 STAN A LOT OF EM NEED A BOOST, AND THEY NEED A PARENT. SOMEONE THAT THEY CAN RELY ON. MOST OF EM THAT I’VE HAD DON’T HAVE THAT, THEY JUST DON’T HAVE IT.
25:38.4 STAN VIRGINA, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME SHE IS RUNNING THE CHAIN SAW, AND THIS IS THE FIRST TIME SHE IS DOING THIS, AND SHE HAS DONE REAL ,REAL WELL. IT TAKES A WHILE TO LEARN HOW TO DO IT. BUT THIS GIRL IS GONNA BE ALRIGHT. SHE IS GOING TO LEARN HOW TO TAKE CARE OF HERSELF.
26:04.0 MAMA PHYLLIS THERE ARE ONLY TWO WAYS FOR A WOMAN TO GET OUT HERE. THAT IS WITH A GUY OR REALLY STAUNCH AND HOLE HEARTEDLY WANTING TO BE AWAY FROM CIVILIZATION. THEN THEY REALIZE WHAT THE COMMUNITY IS ABOUT HERE, AND THEY BECOME AND INTEGRAL PART OF IT. MAMA ENERGY IS A STRONG ENERGY. YOU CAN’T LIVE OUT HERE AND BE MEEK. IT HAS TO BE STRONG ENERGY BECAUSE THERE IS SO MUCH MASCULINE ENERGY. AND YOU HAVE TO COUNTERBALANCE IT.
26:33.3 LUNA(OFF) FIRST OF ALL WE ARE GOING TO CLEAN OUT THE TUB
26:41.4 LUNA THERE IS NOT MUCH WATER IN THE DESERT. WATER RAINS ONTO THE ROOF AND DRIPS DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN, INTO THE SISTERN.
26:53.5 LUNA THAT TICKLES
26:56.6 SAGE IT’S SQUSHY!
27:01.0 LUNA I MOVED HERE WHEN SAGE WAS IN MY BELLY STILL. AND WE WENT UP AND GATHERED FIRE WOOD. NOW I AM USED TO IT, I AM ACCUSTOMED TO THE EXTRA BIT OF WORK. TO ME IT’S WORTH IT TO BE ABLE TO COME OUT INTO THE YARD AND LOOK OUT INTO THE MOUNTAINS. AND BE NAKED IF YOU WANT. AND YOU KNOW THE FREEDOM AND THE SPACE AND ALL.
27:30.3 MAMA PHYLLIS I FIND A PEACE OUT HERE THAT I DON’T FIND IN TOWN. I GET REALLY CRAZY IN TOWN. IT’S LIKE RUSH HERE RUSH THERE. I GET REALLY TIRED OF THAT. THAT IS WHY I LEFT NURSING, MMM, BECAUSE I COULD NOT DEAL WITH THE BULLCRAP OF THE INSURANCE COMPANIES. U KNOW, WHEN THE PASSION LEFT SO DID I.
27:55.5 MAMA PHYLLIS(OFF) THERE ARE TRADE OFF’S TO EVERYTHING. AND LIVING ON THE MESA IS A TRADE OFF. YOU TRADE THE STRESS OF THE BIG CITY, FOR THE HARDSHIP OF LIVING OUT ON THE MESA,
AND HAVING TO EAT ON DIRTY DISHES BECAUSE YOU DON’T HAVE ENOUGH WATER TO WASH THE DIRTY DISHES. ITS HARD OUT HERE, THERE IS NO DOUBT ABOUT IT.
28:11.1 MAMA PHYLLIS I NEVER SAW MYSELF DOING THIS. BUT NOW I COULD NEVER SEE MYSELF ANYWHERE ELSE.
28:29.3 MAMA PHYLLIS BASICALLY AT THIS MOMENT IN TIME WE DON’T HAVE ENOUGH WATER TO WASH OUR BODIES
28:42.4 ESPY WE HAVEN’T HAD A BATH IN A MONTH
28:45.4 MAN(OFF) I CAN TELL BY THE CLARITY OF THE WATER
28:48.5 ESPY YA THE SECOND WE HIT IT THE DEAD SKIN JUST KINDA CAME OFF
01:28.49. (MAN OFF) SAY BRO WHAT IS YOUR NAME?
28:51.5 ESPY ESPY, MY NAME IS ESPY
28:57.6 MAINE IF YOU HAVE WAITED TWO WEEKS TO TAKE A SHOWER, OR YOU HAVE WAITED A 4 WEEKS, AFTER THAT HAPPENS TO YOU A BUNCH OF TIMES. YOU SAY YOU KNOW WHAT I CAN WAIT ANOTHER WEEK. YOUR PRIORITIES GET IN LINE. WHAT WOULD YOU RATHER DO, SMELL GOOD OR HAVE SOMETHING TO DRINK?
29:20.2 MAMA PHYLLIS I USE THE MUD, IT EXFOLIATES THE SKIN, TAKES OFF THE DEAD SKIN AND YOUR SKIN IS SOFTER AND MORE SUPPLE. IT WORKS REAL GOOD IF YOU DON’T HAVE SOAP
29:37.4 MOONBOW WE BUILT A GREAT BIG HUGE GREEN HOUSE. THAT RIGHT THERE CAN FEED FOUR FAMILIES YEAR ROUND.
29:43.4 MOONBOW IT’S A REALLY HARD PLACE TO GROW OUT HERE, THIS WAS JUST AN EXPERIMENT TO SEE HOW THINGS COULD GROW OUT HERE, AND I THINK I DID RATHER GOOD.
29:51.5 MOONBOW LOOK AT THE GROWTH OUT HERE, ITS INCREDIBLE. ALL OF THIS IS GOOD DIRT. I HAVE TURNED IT AND EVERYTHING. AND A LAID THE STRAW DOWN SO I GOT WHEAT. AND I GOT MY BEATS IN THE OTHER GREEN HOUSE AND THE CAROTS.
01:30.1 MOONBOW’S KID DADDY IS GROWING BROCCOLLI
30:12.1 MOONBOW AND THEY ARE GROWING. I MEAN IT’S NOT THE BIGGEST CAROT IN THE WORLD. WE WILL GET THINGS IN A LITTLE EARLIER NEXT YEAR AND A WE WILL HAVE PLENTY. AND YOU CAN EAT THE LEAVES OFF OF THE CAULIFLOWER AND THE BROCOLLI. AND IT’S JUST AMAZING WHAT YOU CAN DO. OUR BIGGEST PROBLEM IS WATER.
30:38.4 ESPY WHEN WE GET WATER ON THE MESA, YOU HAVE TO BE SMART ENOUGH TO CATCH THAT WATER, AND USE IT. IF YOU CAN CATCH THE WATER YOU CAN USE IT.IF YOU CAN’T CATCH THE WATER IT WILL GO BACK INTO THE GROUND AND YOU WILL NEVER SEE IT AGAIN
30:50.5 ESPY WE JUST FINISHED CONSTRUCTION ON THE TOP OF THIS ROOF RIGHT NOW. THE ROOF IS ALMOST FLAT, BUT IT HAS A SLIGHT ANGLE TO IT. IT’S 16 INCHES ON ONE SIDE. I BUILT THE SLANT THIS WAY WHICH IS FACING WEST, BECAUSE THE SUN PREDOMINANTLY COMES THIS WAY. DURING THE HEAVY SNOWS OF THE YEAR, THE MOMENT THAT THE SUN HITS THE METAL OF THE ROOF, IT’S STARTS TO WARM IT UP AND WILL MELT THAT WATER BEFORE THE SNOW BLOWS OFF.
31:18.2 JEFF YOUR ELECTRICITY DOESN’T COME FROM A BIG POLLUTING POWER PLANT AND SO IF IT’S CLOUDY AND YOU DON’T HAVE THIS GREAT BIG BATTERY BANK, YOU HAVE TO PAY ATTENTION TO HOW MUCH POWER YOU ARE USING, SO YOU DON’T USE IT ALL UP. YOU ARE GOING TO BURN WOOD THAT YOU ARE GOING TO GET OUT OF THE FOREST YOURSELF, TO HEAT YOUR PLACE. AS APPOSED TO TURNING THE DIAL ON THE THERMOSTAT AND LETTING THE GRID DO IT ALL.
01:31:45:10 REBECCA”WHITE BUFFALO” I KNOW HOW TO SURVIVE WITHOUT ELECTRICITY AND HOW TO SURVIVE WITHOUT THE LUXURIES OF THE CITY.
32:00.0 REBECCA”WHITE BUFFALO”
I KNOW YOU JUST BUMPED YOUR NOSE. OHHH. YOU JUST BUMPED YOUR NOSE.
HEY, WHAT YOU GOT.
32:12.1 JESS MY CHAINSAW AINT WORKING SO I BROUGHT YOU WOOD
32:16.2 REBECCA”WHITE BUFFALO” YOU BROUGHT ME WOOD?
32:20.2 REBECCA”WHITE BUFFALO” YA I GET HELP.LAUGHS JESS IS ABOUT THE ONE PERSON I CAN ALWAYS RELY ON.
THANK YOU LOVE
32:31.3 JESS SEE U LATER
32:45.5 ROBBIE(OFF) A YOUNG SISTER THAT HAS BEEN HERE OFF AND ON FOR YEARS, WAS MORE OR LESS BEEN COUGHT RED HANDED, STEALING SOME STUFF FROM A SINGLE WOMAN AROUND HERE.
32:55.6 STAN SHE BROKE INTO A WOMAN’S HOUSE, SHE BROKE A WINDOW, AND EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR WAS UNLOCKED
32:59.6 REBECCA”WHITE BUFFALO” SHE TOOK ALL MY FRUITS AND VEGETABLES, AND ALL OUR BATTERIES, THAT SHE COULD FIND, AND ALL OF MY WEATHER PROOFING, THAT I HAD, THAT I HADN’T GOTTEN UP YET
33:09.1 MAMA ANN IT WAS YESTERDAY MORNING THAT I DISCOVERED THAT NONE OF MY BEANS WAS STILL DOWN THERE. AND THEY WERE 50 POUND BAGS THAT I HAD JUST OPENED THIS FALL.
33:19.2 ROBBIE AND THERE ARE OTHER THEFTS SUSPECTED OF THIS PERSON AND HER FRIENDS.
33:27.3 STAN WHEN THEY FIRST CAME THEY STAYED WITH ME FOR A MONTH OR BETTER, AND THEN SOME MORE KIDS CAME, AND SOME MORE AND SOME MORE, AND PRETTY SOON THERE WERE A BUNCH OF EM.
33:38.4 MAMA PHYLLIS THEY ARE ONE OF THE GROUPS THAT TRULY BELIEVE THAT BABYLON WILL FALL. AND THEY ARM THEIR CAMP, AND MAKE SURE TO HAVE ALL OF THE PROVISIONS THEY NEED.
33:47.5 STAN THEY ARE VERY ANARCHY. THEY RUN AROUND PULL THEIR HOODS OVER THEIR HEADS AND THEIR MASK OVER THEIR FACE. THEY ACT LIKE A BUNCH OF REVOLUTIONARIES. THEY CUSS THE SYSTEM, YET THEY HAVE THEIR HAND OUT FOR THAT SYSTEM, FOR EVERYTHING THEY CAN GET.
34:08.1 MAMA ANN THE REASON THAT WE KNOW THAT IT WAS THAT CREW, IS CAUSE THEY ARE AN ENTIRE VEGAN GROUP AND WE HAD GROUND BEEF, CHICKEN, CHEESE AND MILK DOWN THERE
34:18.2 ELISE IN THE FRIDGE
34:21.2 MAMA ANN AND ALL THEY TOUCHED WAS THE ORGANIC BEANS
34:27.3 ROBBIE SO NOW WE HAVE A REAL SERIOUS PROBLEM IN OUR COMMUNITY, BECAUSE WE DON’T WANT TO CALL THE COPS. BUT SOME PEOPLE HAVE THEIR GUNS AND ARE CARRYING THEM, AND I AM NOT ONE OF THEM
34:43.4 MOONBOW THE REAL LAW OUT HERE IS BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR; OTHERWISE YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BE HERE. THAT IS THE MAIN LAW IF YOU ARE NOT A GOOD NEIGHBOR, THEN WE WILL BAND TOGETHER AND CHASE YOU OUT OF HERE.
34:54.5 COWBOY IF YOU BREAK INTO MY HOUSE, NO MATTER HOW BIG OF AN ASSHOLE I AM. IF YOU STEAL MY WEAPONS, THAT PUTS THOSE WEAPONS IN CRIMINAL HANDS. I MEAN…NONE OF US CAN AFFORD THAT, NONE OF US. CAN AFFORD TO HAVE THAT KIND OF FIRE POWER.YOU BREAK INTO HIS HOUSE, THE FIRE POWER THAT IS AVAILABLE. ANY OF THESE DWELLINGS OUT HERE. THANK GOD REBECCA DIDN’T HAVE A WEAPON, THANK GOD SHE DIDN’T, BECAUSE THEN IT WOULD HAVE BEEN IN THE HANDS OF AN INDISCRIMINANT JUVINILE DELINQUINT.
35:28.3 MOONBOW OK WE SHOULD PROBABLY HEAD OUT NOW
01:35:29:14 COWBOY YA, WE SHOULD, WE SHOULD
36:05.1 MAMA PHYLLIS(OFF) ONE THING THAT WE DO NOT STAND FOR OUT HERE ON THE MESA IS SOMEONE STEALING FROM CHILDREN’S MOUTHS.
36:10.1 MAMA PHYLLIS WE ARE HAVING A COUNCIL MEETING BASICALLY OF THE ELDERS, ON THE MESA, WHO WILL TALK ABOUT IT, COME TO A DECISION. THERE ARE PEOPLE HERE TO DEFEND THE PERSON HERE WHO DID THE STEALING.
36:24.2 ESPY THERE WILL BE A LOT OF YELLING AND SCREEMING AND PEOPLE WILL YELL AND SCREAM AND THAT IS COOL. LET THEM YELL, LET THEM SCREAM. LET THEM GET IT OUT OF THERE SYSTEM
36:30.3 MAMA PHYLLIS IT’S THE ELDERS COMING TOGETHER SO WE CAN KEEP PEACE ON THE MESA. BECAUSE WE DON’T CALL THE COPS, WE TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS OURSELVES.
36:36.4 ELISE IT’S LIKE THIS IS A BIG CLUB. YOU PUSH PEOPLES BUTTONS TOO FAR IT DOESN’T MATTER IF YOU ARE A GOOD PERSON WHO MADE A MISTAKE.YOU MAKE TOO MANY MISTAKES AROUND HERE ITS BETTER THAT WE GET YOU OUTA HERE, THEN SHOOT YA. CAUSE THAT’S WHAT’L HAPPEN. BECAUSE ONE DAY SHE WILL BE TRYING TO RIP SOMEONE OFF CAUSE SHE AINT FEEL LIKE SHE IS GETTING ENOUGH FOOD FROM HER FRIENDS, AND SHE WILL GET SHOT IN THE HEAD. BECAUSE THERE ARE PEOPLE AROUND HERE THAT ARE LIKE THAT. THANK GOD SHE AINT HIT SOMEBODY LIKE THAT YET.
37:15.1 MAMA PHYLLIS WE ARE GOING TO ASK THAT YOU PUT THE CAMERA AWAY
37:18.2 NOW WHERE KID(OFF) JUST GIVE ME A GOD DAMN CIGARETTE!!!
37:27.3 ESPY EVERY SINGLE ONE IS ARMED, DEFINITELY, DEFINITELY. I WOULD TAKE THEM VERY SERIOUSLY.
37:40.4 JAY THIS REALLY IS, IT REALLY IS, THE OLD WEST, EVEN LAW WISE
37:46.5 MAINE DUDE YOU GET ESCALATED, THEY DO SOMETHING, YOU DO SOMETHING HARSHER. THEY DO SOMETHING, AND YOU DO SOMETHING HARSHER. IT’S JUST THE WAY IT GOES. YOU SHOOT ME IM GONNA SHOOT EVERYBODY MAN. YOU SHOOT HIM, OR YOU SHOOT ONE OF MY BRO’S, IM GONNA SMOKE THE WHOLE VILLAGE. THAT’S JUST THE WAY IT GOES. IT’S A UNITED STATES PLACE. DROP A BOMB ON THE WORLD TRADE CENTER, GO AHEAD FLY A PLANE INTO THE WORLD TRADE CENTER, AND SEE WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENS. IM GONNA GO TO AFGANISTAN AND BLOW EVERYTHING TO FUCK. WE ARE GONNA DRAW TONS AND TONS AND TONS OF ORDINANCE. YOU ARE GONNA THINK GOD HIMSELF TOOK A CRAP IN THE BACK OF YOUR FUCKING YARD. AND THAT IS JUST THE WAY IT GOES, THAT’S THE WAY IT GOES. THAT’S THE WAY YOU GOTTA DO IT. SO THEY WON’T DO IT AGAIN.YOU GOTTA TRY AND UP IT.
38:32.3 ROBBIE THIS YOUNG PERSON JUST CAME FROM THE CITY AND EXPRESSED A VIEW WHICH I HOPE I CAN PARAPHRASE.
IF SOMEONE IS NOT UTILIZING OR USING SOMETHING, IF THEY WALK AWAY FROM IT THEN IT HURTS THE WHOLE SOCIETY, AND IT IS OPEN FOR OTHER PEOPLE TO USE, BECAUSE PEOPLE SHOULDN’T BE HORDING IN THESE TIMES OF MISERY, AND STUFF, NOW THIS PERSON CAME FROM AN INNER CITY SITUATION OR SOMETHING, WHERE THAT MAY BE TRUE, BUT THIS IS A DIFFERENT KIND OF PLACE! AND WE HAVE TO LET THEM KNOW THAT.
38:57.6 JOANY I HAVE NEVER HEARD THAT BEFORE, IF A PERSON HAS EXCESS, THEY THINK THAT YOU ARE HORDING AND IT’S OK FOR YOU TO SHARE, EVEN THOUGH IT IS STEALING.
39:10.1 ROBBIE I HAVE SEEN THE RICHES AND THE WASTE IN OUR SOCIETY. AND IF THESE FOLKS ARE COMING FROM DETROIT OR LOS ANGELES OR SOMETIHING, THEN THEY HAVE SEEN AN INCREDIBLE AMOUNT OF RICH FOLKS WASTING. SO THEY SAY THESE PEOPLE HAVE ALL OF THAT. BUT THEY HAVE BEEN CONDITIONED INTO THAT IN THE CITY TO THINK THAT, THAT EVERYONE IS AGAINST THEM TOO, AND HERE THEY HAVE TO THINK THAT PEOPLE ARE NOT AGAINST THEM.
39:25.2 ROBBIE I WOULD LIKE TO SEE ,IMMEDIATELY, OR WITHIN 12 HOURS, A DELEGATION GO OVER THERE WITHOUT GUNS, WHERE THESE PEOPLE ARE, THEY ARE ALL IN ONE PLACE, AND SAY “YOU GUYS HAVE TO LEAVE”
39:56.6 MAMA PHYLLIS THE CORE OF THE CAMP RESPECTS THE MOMA ENERGY. SO WE WENT THERE AND BASICALLY SAID THIS IS NOT COOL, YOU CAN’T DO THAT. WE KNEW THAT IF WE SENT THE GUYS THERE, NOTHING ONE, WOULD GET RESOLVED AND TWO THERE MIGHT BE MORE AGRO ENERGY, THAN ANYTHING ELSE. I TRULY BELIEVE THAT IT WOULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN RESOLVED IF THE MOMMA’S DIDN’T GO DOWN THERE. THEY ARE YOUNG, WE REMIND THEM PROBABLY OF THERE MOTHER….(LAUGH)
PLUS, WE DID IT IN A NURTURING WAY, THAT DIDN’T CONDEMN THEM. BUT IT WAS ALSO OBVIOUS THAT WE KNEW WHAT WAS GOING ON, AND WE WANTED IT TO STOP.
40:37.4 COWBOY TO ME THAT WAS A GREATER RESOLUITION THAN PUTTING SOMEONE IN JAIL, GETTING EM’ ON PROBATION, OR WHATEVER. WHATEVER THE HELL THE SYSTEM WANTS TO DO WITH THEM. THERE IS A DIFFERENT WAY TO DEAL.
40:48.5 COWBOY(OFF) I THINK THAT OUR MORE SIMPLE APPROACH TO JUSTICE IS A MORE CORRECT METHOD. WE KEEP IT WITHIN THE TRIBE, AND JUSTICE MOSTLY IS SERVED.
41:00.0 COWBOY WE ARE NOT RENOGADES OUT HERE. WE ARE NOT OUTLAWS, WE ARE NOT BANDITS. WE ARE JUST SIMPLY FREE PEOPLE THAT WANT TO REMAIN THAT WAY.
41:08.1 COWBOY DEMOCRACY OUT HERE IS OUR MOST PRECIOUS ASSET. I FLY THE STARS AND STRIPES. I AM A PATRIOT. I ABSOLUTELY BELIEVE, WHAT I BELIEVE FIRST AND FOREMOST IN IS OUR RIGHT TO HOLD THIS COUNCIL, WHIHOUT INVOLVING THE GOVERNMENT. WE ARE AMERICANS; WE HAVE THAT FREEDOM OF CHOICE.
41:53.5 AUSTIN(OFF) WHEN KIDS RUN AWAY, THEY RUN AWAY TO A MAGICAL PLACE. SOMEPLACE INSIDE THEIR HEAD THEY RUN AWAY FROM THEIR PARENTS, THEY RUN AWAY FROM SOCIETY. AND EVENTUALLY, WHEN TRAVELING, THEY HEAR STORIES ABOUT THIS MAGICAL PLACE THAT IS SPIRITUAL AND BEAUTIFUL AND THERE IS THER PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT SHARE THEIR SAME IDEAS.
42:25.3 (AUSTIN) THE MESA IS KNOWN IN UNDERGROUND CIRCLES, IT’S LIKE WO, THERE IS THIS PLACE, IT’S BADDASS. THERE IS NO ELECTRICITY, NO WATER. THERE ARE LOTS OF COOL PEOPLE. BUT IT’S NOT FOR EVERYBODY. HIPPIE KIDS COME HERE ALL THE TIME AND EITHER GET RUN OUT OR SHOT AT. OR SOMEBODY KICKS THEIR ASS, OR THIS PLACE KICKS THEIR ASS.
42:53.5 AUSTIN THIS ISN’T A TOURIST SPOT, THIS IS REAL LIFE. THIS IS THE HARSHEST OF ALL REALITIES. IT’S THE DESERT, IT’S THE MESA.
43:07.1 AUSTIN WHEN I CAME HERE, I WAS AT A REALLY BAD POINT IN MY LIFE; I WAS AT A REALLY LOW POINT. AND I DIDN’T KNOW WHERE I WANTED TO GO, I JUST LEFT. I THREW UP MY THUMB AND HAD A BACK PACK AND LEFT.
43:21.2 AUSTIN HITCHHICKING IS VERY DANGEROUS. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET THE 3AM PERV OUT ON YOU. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN SOMEONE IS GOING TO REACH OVER, WHEN U ARE HALF ASLEEP AND TRY AND GRAB YOUR CROTCH. IT’S NECESSARY TO ALWAYS CARY A KNIFE. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN YOU ARE GOING TO GET INTO THE WRONG CAR WITH SOMEBODY AND THEY ARE GOING TO PULL OVER ONTO THE SIDE OF THE RODE, AND LOCK THEIR DOORS AND TRY TO RAPE YOU
43:44.4 AUSTIN . YOU KNOW
A LOT OF RUNAWAY KIDS, 15 OR 16 YEARS OLD. THEY RUN AWAY FROM EVERYTHING AND GET INTO THE WRONG CAR, AND GET FUCKED UP, REAL BAD. IF THEY LIVE THROUGH IT, THAT’LL TURN YOU MAN. THAT IS ONE OF THOSE THINGS THAT LEAD YOU TO A DARK PATH. BECAUSE IT’S HARD, THOSE SCARS, RUN DEEP, THEY RUN REEL DEEP. YOU REACH A POINT OF EMOTIONAL AND PHYSICAL COLLAPSE. AND THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS, THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS TO A LOT OF THESE KIDS, THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS TO A LOT OF PEPOPLE. THEY REACH A POINT OF COLLAPSE, AND THEY DON’T COME BACK FORM IT.
45:06.1 VIRGINIA BEFORE I MET JAMES, I LET A LOT OF GUYS USE ME. AND THEN I LIKE ALL OF A SUDDEN FOUND JAMES AND I THOUGHT MAYBE HE WAS ONE OF THOSE SCUMB BAGS, BUT HE IS WAY DIFFERENT. I LOVE HIM AND I AM IN LOVE WITH HIM. AND A LOT OF PEOPLE THINK IT'S KIND OF EEWWW. BUT I DON’T CARE WHAT THEY THINK, THEY CAN THINK NEGATIVE ALL THEY WANT, CAUSE I AM HAPPY WHERE I AM AT. MORE HAPPY THAN I HAVE EVER BEEN. I THINK OF HIM LIKE A FATHER FIGURE. I NEVER HAD A DAD.
45:47.5 VIRGINIA I KNOW HOW TO MAKE MONEY. HUSTLING UP SOME BUCKS ON THE CORNER.YOU KNOW. FLYING A SIGN, NO SEXUAL FAVORS OR NOTHING. YOU KNOW, I AM NOT A WHORE, AND I HAVE TOLD PEOPLE SO MANY TIMES.BECAUSE WHEN I FLY A SIGN PEOPLE HAVE ASKED ME FOR BLOW JOBS AND STUFF, AND I HAVE TOLD THEM I AM NOT A WHORE, BEACAUSE I AM NOT!
46:13.1 VIRGINIA I SMOKE CRACK, BECAUSE THAT’S WHAT I DO. SMOKING HTAT STUFF, THE DUST FROM IT. GOES DOWN INTO YOUR THROAT AND YOUR LUNGS, AND ITS REAL BAD FOR YOU. BUT YOU KNOW, I AM YOUNG, AND LIKE, I HAVE GONE MONTHS AND MONTHS WITHOUT IT.
46:35.4 VIRGINIA I FEEL LIKE I’M A KID, I STILL AM A KID. BUT I HAVE GROWN UP. DUDE, HE LIKE MADE ME GROW UP REAL FAST, REAL FAST.
46:49.5 JAMES AKA BOYFRIEND I JUST MADE YOU AWARE OF SOME THINGS THAT YOU WEREN’T AWARE OF.
46:53.5 VIRGINIA YAAA
46:53.5 JAMES AKA BOYFRIEND AND YOU MADE THE CHOICE TO LISTEN TO WHAT I HAD TO SAY TO YOU OR NOT.
47:11.1 GECKO I KEEP THIS PART OF MY DAUGHTER’S DIARY IN MY WALLET, BECAUSE IT’S THE FIRST THING SHE WROTE WHEN WE GOT OUT TO THE MESA, AND IT MEANS A LOT TO ME….
47:20.2 GECKO “I WAS PLAYING WITH MY TOY BABY, THEN AFTER I SANG TWO TIMES, IN THE AFTERNOON WE WENT TO TOWN TO CALL MOM, TO CALL MY MOM. I GOT TO TALK TO HER FIRST, SHE SAY’S SHE MISSES US A LOT. THEN AFTER THE THREE BOYS GOT TO TALK TO HER. THEN WE CAME BACK. YESTERDAY WE HAD DINNER AT LISA, CONNOR’S AND PAT’S HOUSE. THEY HAVE A REALLY COOL HOUSE”
47:42.4 GECKO I JUST KEEP THAT IN THERE. BECAUSE THAT IS THE FIRST THING SHE WROTE WHEN WE GOT OUT HERE. SANG TO TWO TIMES TODAY. YA, YA YOU DID. MY LITTLE CUTIE.
47:56.6 GECKO THE KIDS, WELL MY WIFE, WROTE ME TO BRING THE KIDS TO ALBUQUERQUE, BECAUSE THEY ARE FLYING OUT. AND THEN AFTER THEY LEFT, I FOUND OUT THAT MY MOM HELP TO BRING THE KIDS BACK TO CONNECTICUT. I DON’T KNOW I HAD NO FAITH, NO TRUST. I DON’T THINK I LOOKED AT MY WIFE IN THE FACE ONE TIME. I WAS MOMENTS AWAY FROM KILLING HER; I REALLY WANTED TO STRANGLE HER. BUT KILLING NOBODY NEVER SOLVED NOTHING. I CRIED FOR THREE HOURS. THEY ARE MY KIDS.
48:38.4 GECKO I GAVE UP EVERYTHING TO RAISE MY CHILDREN. NOT ENOUGH THOUGH, I DIDN’T GIVE UP ENOUGH, SHOULD HAVE GIVEN UP MORE. AH WELL, BEING AN ALCOHOLIC, AND GOING ON ALCOHOLIC RAGES. YA I COULD HAVE GIVEN UP ALCOHOL.

YOU KNOW HIS FUCKINGWORD MEANS SOMETHING, HE TELLS YOU SOMETHING AND IT MEANS SOMETHING. YOU KNOW WHAT HE IS GOING TO DO IN A SITUATION. BUT YOU KNOW HE IS LIKE YOU, HE JUST WANTS TO BE LEFT THE FUCK ALONE.
GIVEN THE CHOICE BETWEEN DYING IN A FUCKING HOSPITAL BED, OR DYING OUT HERE, UNDER THE STARS. THERE AINT NO CHOICE MAN.
51:44.4 MAINE IT’S A LITTLE BIT OF A MESS, BUT IT’S GOT A WOOD STOVE IN IT, SO IT’S NOT COMPLETELY COLD. THAT IS PRETTY MUCH IT. YOU CAN SEE THE UP TOP. THE UP TOP IS KINDA NICE. IT GIVES YOU A LITTLE MORE HEAD SPACE.

THEY CHECK MY CELLS, MY RED CELLS, MY “BLUE” CELLS, MY T CELLS.AND YOUR WHITE AND YOUR PLATELETS AND ALL THAT CRAP. I DON’T KNOW WHAT THE FUCK THEY CHECK. THEY TAKE BLOOD, AND COME BACK AND TELL ME HOW I AM DOING.
52:25.3 MAINE THEY THINK YOU ARE CRAZY IF YOU REFUSE TREATMENT. YOU KNOW, THEY THINK I AM NUTS, I DON’T WANT CHEMO. I AM A RED CARD, TROUBLE CASE, BECAUSE OF THAT. AND THEY THINK I NEED PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATION BECAUSE OF IT.

53:22.2 MAMA PHYLLIS MAINE HAS EXPERIENCED DEATH, AS WE ALL WILL EVENTUALLY. BUT HE HAS EXPERIENCED DEATH, IN ONE OF THE MORE GRUESOME WAYS I CAN THINK OF. WAR. IT CHANGES A PERSON. IT MAKES THEM DIFFERENT. WETHER THAT IS GOOD OR BAD. I DON’T KNOW. BUT HE IS A FINE HUMAN BEING. HE IS A FINE HUMAN BEING. AND I WOULDN’T TRADE KNOWING HIM FOR ANYTHING IN THE WORLD. HE HAS GRABBED A LITTLE PIECE OF MY HEART. AND I AM GOING TO BE SAD WHEN HE LEAVES.
54:22.2 MAINE WOULD I LIKE TO WAKE UP IN THE MORNING AND HAVE IT ALL BE GONE. HAVE IT ALL BE MAGICALLY GONE. YA SURE, THAT WOULD BE GREAT.

YOU CAN DO WHATEVER THE GOD DAMN HELL YOU WANT IN THIS COUNTRY. THERE ARE CERTAIN RULES AND REGULATIONS, WITHIN A NORM. BUT GO TRY AND DO THAT IN SAUDI ARABIA. SEE HOW THAT GOES FOR YOU.
