| And we are all endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights, and among those are life and liberty and the pursuit of happiness. and among those are life and liberty and the pursuit In Austin, we're pretty good at the last one of those. | |
| And I want to know, I want everyone to know that those words apply to everyone. | |
| No questions asked and no exceptions. | |
| Y'all have a great and powerful day. | |
| Thank you. | |
| Thank you, Mr. Mayor. | |
| Why are you guys blocking me? | |
| Why can't I get through? | |
| I know, I just want to go film him. | |
| They have an opening for you if you'd like to go around. | |
| Whose idea was it to do this? | |
| Ours. | |
| So you guys aren't really... | |
| I could break through here if I wanted to. | |
| So I could. | |
| I could. | |
| Snotty boy, okay. | |
| So how are you protecting them? | |
| I just want to go film them. | |
| I want to get their message out. | |
| I am part of the press, actually. | |
| What about a First Amendment? | |
| No, I want to go film is what I want to do. | |
| You guys... | |
| Hey, you know what's funny? | |
| You say you're welcoming, but you won't welcome people past you. | |
| How ironic is that? | |
| You guys are so welcoming. | |
| You guys are so welcoming. | |
| I can't believe you just wanted to come after me. | |
| You guys are so welcoming, you won't let me come in there. | |
| You're so welcoming, you formed a wall. | |
| Hilarious. | |
| Huh? | |
| Why can't we get in there? | |
| I just want to film. | |
| They said I'm not pressed. | |
| They say everyone's welcome, but I'm not welcome to pass their wall. | |
| What do you mean register? | |
| I'm an American citizen, man. | |
| I have a First Amendment right. | |
| Yeah, I absolutely do. | |
| Absolutely. | |
| Yes, make your wall bigger. | |
| It's banned. | |
| How are you? | |
| You seem to want to be standing really close to me. | |
| Why is that? | |
| It's crowded here. | |
| It's crowded here. | |
| Well, you could back up, but you wanted to stand next to me. | |
| I am proud that Austin reaffirmed... | |
| Why would I want your name and address? | |
| Why are you taking pictures, man? | |
| What are you talking about? | |
| There's thousands of people taking pictures and filming here. | |
| This is a big event. | |
| Yeah, I know, but nobody's being pushy, man. | |
| Actually, I was just trying to get through there, and all these people... | |
| Yeah, I was trying to figure out why, and there's no reason. | |
| Because nobody wants you to. | |
| Why? | |
| I'm an American citizen. | |
| I thought we welcomed everyone here. | |
| I thought we welcomed everyone here. | |
| Huh? | |
| I don't need a register. | |
| Here we go, here we go. | |
| No wall. | |
| They literally are making a wall. | |
| They made a wall. | |
| Look at this. | |
| They've banned me. | |
| They want to ban me from the event. | |
| And they made a wall blocking me. | |
| Look at this. | |
| It's amazing. | |
| No wall. | |
| This is awesome. | |
| That's awesome. | |
| I'm an American citizen. | |
| I have a First Amendment right. | |
| I'm not doing anything illegal. | |
| I'm not doing anything obstructive. | |
| They are. | |
| No walls, no bans, yet they're walling me off and banning me. | |
| It's hilarious. | |
| This is what irony looks like. | |
| That's fine. | |
| I wanted to get through peacefully. | |
| Y'all are the ones that started chanting. | |
| What were we chanting? | |
| No wall, no ban. | |
| Hey, I agree, man. | |
| Yeah, right on, bro. | |
| You got it. | |
| So you don't think there should be any walls, sir? | |
| Here, let's have a conversation. | |
| You don't like walls? | |
| I don't like you. | |
| Why? | |
| Because you're acting like an asshole. | |
| Alright, so let's ask about the policy you're out here protesting, though. | |
| Yeah, well, I want to entertain you, man, okay? | |
| Okay, so tell me, what don't you like about the travel ban? | |
| Yeah, yeah. | |
| What don't you like about the travel ban? | |
| You. | |
| No, no, no, the travel ban. | |
| You. | |
| I don't like you about it. | |
| I'm not banned from traveling to America. | |
| I can't travel to Iran. | |
| What's up? | |
| Oh my god, this is awesome. | |
| Okay, that's fine. | |
| Well, this woman's now blocking me. | |
| Why are you in my way? | |
| Okay, yeah, no problem. | |
| All these people keep wanting to touch me and be weird. | |
| Alright, so now we're over here. | |
| We can talk over here. | |
| Yeah, let's keep going. | |
| Let's talk over here. | |
| Come on. | |
| Okay. | |
| Why can't we just talk right here, dude? | |
| Well, because this is a free country and you're a free citizen, man. | |
| Yeah, so right here is just fine. | |
| So tell me, why don't you like the travel ban? | |
| Why don't you like the travel ban? | |
| Yeah, right here is fine. | |
| How are you? | |
| I'm good. | |
| I'm Carson. | |
| Hey, it's nice to meet you, Carson. | |
| I'm Owen. | |
| Owen, nice to meet you. | |
| It's nice to meet you. | |
| So the reason why folks have created a wall with their bodies is because there are certain communities, which is evident in a lot of the news that we've been seeing, are more susceptible to being... | |
| We're victims of hate crimes based on their religion, based on the way they look, their race, and so we're just trying to protect them. | |
| That's really all that is. | |
| Who are you referring to exactly? | |
| I'm talking about... | |
| Who are we trying to protect? | |
| In this case, Muslims. | |
| This is a Muslim day at the Capitol. | |
| There's lots of different marginalized communities that are more susceptible to this. | |
| So all that is, is just protection. | |
| So what type of hate crimes have been happening to Muslims that you are out here trying to protect them from? | |
| Yeah, there are people being beat up all over the country. | |
| There are people that are... | |
| Well, can you name an instance? | |
| Dude, there's... | |
| It really... | |
| It's just like some... | |
| Yeah, and it actually was a Muslim who was a suspect in those, too. | |
| Actually, in fact, you know, the biggest victims of radical Islamic terror are Muslim people. | |
| This is true. | |
| This is true. | |
| No, I will admit facts. | |
| So there's no proof of anything, but it's very unusual that one of those mosques in Victoria had been burglarized and also somebody had written some hate stuff. |
