collect. You know we'll take care of it. We can't do
anything right now cause see, there's states rights and
in this case our hands are tied. Phew. Eight years of
that. Liberals. Hands are tied. They're gonna have a
hell of a trip with this tria] in Chicago. They're gonna
write out a check The Conspiracy, it's really a trip going
up to -, saying, rigbt, of course, I'm constitutional
law, yea, right, it's ridiculous. Law is a police state
facism coming in. Well, give us a check. Well, who do f
make it out to? The Chicago Iegal Defense Committee or the
Chicago Eight? No, we're the conspiracy. Oh, my pen's
stuck. That's OK. I got a felt one right here. Technology.

"People think there's alot of political repression
going on in this country. They grabbed 2] Black Panthers
in New York. Planning to blow the Botanical Gardens and
Macy's and alot of other national security interests. Same
as if Chicago won. You see, they think that’s gonna stop
us. They get all these people together. Like all these
different forces are gonna come into Chicago, comin' to New
York to defend the Black Panthers, cause we don't view these
acts as acts of repression. We view them as signs of a
dying sympton...system. The emperor's clothes are coming
off, And we're gonna rejoice, When this trial's over,
we'll dance on the graves of the systen.
"You meet alot of groovy people in a conspiracy.
You oughta start one. Take power into your own hands.
Decide what you want and go do it. Just wack from Berkeley.
University leveled a while building - gonna make a parking
lot. Like they're gonna do in Vietnam. Kids ran in and
put sod and made a park, People's Park; put up swings and
everything, right on the University's property. They look
at that. Whoo, they’re spooked. How they gonna move against
those little kiddies in the wading pool? Sneaky. Sneaky
commies. You know the commies, they aren't hiding under
the bed anymore. They came right up on top of the bed and
we're screwing them like crazy. We're gonna dance on the
grave of this system. You try it. You wanna get an education?
Try doing what you wanna do. And then you'll see that cops
come in. See who calls them. Check out the guys who own
this school. Check ‘em out. What else they own. Coca Cola?
United Fruit, Canada? What do they own up here? They own
you. Try taking it. You know people don't believe that
