the conduct of the gentleman in Boston for Mr. Howd.
That’s what he wants you to do. He has asked you to do
that. Because a member there, 1,500 miles away, how that
guy acted, and it was offensive, and Mr. Minton’s actions
were offensive. They are both offensive. You can’t
justify what either one them did that on that tape.
Nobody can justify it. I hope both parties are ashamed
of it. Both parties should be ashamed of it.
 
Mr. Howd has to be painted like that, when
you consider the reputation. That is what he is asking
you to do. Like I told you before, Mr. Minton went there
for one purpose, he had already picketed during the day,
you want people around so they can hear his message. He
can go out there, like I said, tonight, and the next
night, and the next night, and I don’t care if I go right
down to Clearwater ten years from now, if he is out there
doing it again, there is nothing wrong with that. There
is nothing wrong with that. You go out there and do what
you have got to do, everyday, and the State will protect
you. The State will protect him, much like the State
protects Mr. Howd.
 
On that day he committed a crime. Thank
you.
