00:17 You come point guns in the direction of my wives and my kids, dammit I'll meet you at the door any time. We knew we were being watched from across the road. We knew there was some kind of government agency... agents over there. I hear the shots. Oh my God! There's going to be a bloodbath. 911 what is your emergency? Yeah 75 men around our building and they're shooting at us Tell them their children and women are here and call it off
01:12 When you realize that not only were they shooting at you, but now you had dead federal law enforcement officers outside. It was a whole different ballgame from that point on. We're looking to God to indicate how we play this This is my family and no one's gonna come in on top of my family and start pushing my family around. It's not gonna happen, ain't gonna happen! What do you think is going to happen in the next few days? You guys are gonna kill us Your organization in this United States of America Is a liar! You're saying peace with your mouth But your words are words of a dragon
