The Spook Who Sat by the Door

Dan Freeman:
You have just played out the American dream... and now, we're gonna turn it into a nightmare.

Dan Freeman:
[confronting members of the Cobras street gang] Shut up... and listen! The big-time, bad-ass Cobras. Pumpin' away at the Pigs from the rooftops during the riots last summer? Oh, yeah! I know what ya's into. With .22 rifles and pistols did about as much damage as a mosquito to a elephant's ass! What did you expect to hit from that range, with those weapons at night? You might as well as *thrown* the damned pieces at the Pigs! You *really* wanna mess with Whitey? I can show you how. *I* can show you how!

[after being told he and the other light-skinned gang members are to rob a bank]

Pretty Willie:
All the yellow nigga's, right?

[His anger coming to a slow boil]

Pretty Willie:
Look, man, I am TIRED of that! I am not passing! I am BLACK! Do you hear me, man? Do you understand? I am BLACK! I am a NIGGA', you understand me? I was BORN Black, I -LIVE- Black, and I'm gonna die, prob'ly -BECAUSE- I'm Black, because some Cracker that -KNOWS- I'm Black, better than -YOU-, Nigga', is prob'ly gonna put a BULLET in the back of my head!

National Guard Soldier:
[after being shot] Why me?

Stud Davis:
Cause it's WAR, Honky!
