No problem. They come and go.
This is not a game.
A lot of people like to have
advertising. I do not.
If the congressman and reporters
go back to the runway ...
Jim Jones sends his
killers to stop them.
Hidden behind a tractor
and trailer.
The killings continued.
When the insane savior,
people are offered the ultimate salvation.
Organizing a mass suicide
under duress and at gunpoint.
The babies first.
The congressman is deceased.
Take the medicine.
Potassium Cyanide is simple.
Get in before it's too late.
Hurry up, hurry up.
"Love one another."
Die with honor. With dignity.
Finish your life with dignity.
Not with tears and pain.
Death is like going to
another plane.
Go this way not.
Stop this hysteria.
No way to die well.
Dying with dignity.
Finally, Jim Jones committed suicide.
After killing more than 900 Americans.
There is a lot of violence and ...
.. I do not know.
It has come to a point ..
The police, they also have guns.
Beautiful weapons they have.
Just murder people.
Come in, come.
Is there something wrong?
- Everything is fine, do not stay at the door.
Well, ..
- Hey, come on.
Go, now it's too late.
Take your seat.
Sit.
Fine, come close a little,
closer to each other.
In October 1980, James Hoskins ...
he hijacked this TV station in Cinccinatti ...
after a hostage
a news presenter.
Can I ask a question?
- Sure.
You know ... who is responsible?
All media,
course.
They are the ones who report
do and that is frustrating.
I have a studio near here
and I looked at people in the street ..
.. We fight for 5 cents ..
And I see that the
politicians do not care.
They all say the same thing.
Reagan says the same
Carter says the same thing.
The truth is that we do not
democracy today.
Jim, my tape is low.
I do not think more than one minute.
Are you saying something else?
No, I do not think there is anything
else to say except ...
.. give me a place
I can shoot at the police.
You people can go now.
Here?
I have no
better place to shoot.
They come with their weapons,
but people die in the streets.
And I have mine loaded.
I'm ready, as always.
But ... that does not help.
His idealism to severe extremes
just to exacerbate things.
You seem like a good man.
- You have to think.
Tonight I killed my girlfriend.
Nothing is more important to me.
Maybe ..
We had planned to occupy this station ..
.. Is a .. Madness.
But I try to put. Things in a row
I killed her.
"We were going to do things together
and I freaked out by.
She's dead.
You are not the person
so does anything.
You do not want to hurt us ..
I want to do anything. I
wants the police come.
They always hurt people.
So ..., come for me now.
That is not the solution.
It is not the solution, but I
killed my friend, what can I do?
All but
which is what you're proposing.
Well, tell me what I can do?
We can help
We are your friends.
You can not help me, they take me out
and stabbing me in jail.
They put you where they rape you ...
Put that bauble off for what I am about to say.
Waiting for the police, he was
the chair of the presenter.
And shot himself.
In April of 1979.
Richard Townsend,
San Diego psychotherapist.
Was forced under threat
with a firearm to retrieve his money from the bank ...
.. Newman Press Ball.
A Nigerian student who had two years together
lived with the Townsend family.
The police surrounded the white Porsche,
with Townsend behind the wheel ..
.. But the crowds Press Ball
gun to the head.
Road traffic was stopped.
After 2 hours of negotiations,
Press Ball had agreed to surrender.
As it was ordered ...
he threw his jacket, belt and shoes
I see him in the car.
He wears a red belt,
he removed the shoes, two shoes.
He comes!
Press Ball emerges
with a 45.
The hostage was rescued.
The gunman died in the ambulance.
The traffic was resumed.
Richard Hall, was abducted
in his own office
And walked through the streets of Indianapolis.
In 1977.
That's what happens with this nasty loan shark.
A novice agent
pulls his gun.
An older colleague beckons
and puts the gun back.
Go back.
- Damn, what we do with that individual.
Nothing.
This is what I want to look good.
Look what happens to people who play with ..
.. with the money of good citizenship.
No one moves.
I've never
seen many crooks together.
I admire the police.
Yes, I admire them.
They begin to act
if they are smart.
The gunman grabs
police handcuffs.
And a patrol car.
Anthony Corisis, a humble bartender
expressed his anger against Hall ...
... because he refused a loan.
The hostage was handcuffed with a gun
tied with a rope around his neck,
And with the barrel of the gun into his neck.
He walked three days around with reporters.
Listen, I want to understand.
I'll read it.
Number 1:
I Anthony Corisis ..Another cable runs of the tractor
around the neck of the kidnapper.
I want some water.
Give it to me.
Relax, I'm serene.
Six pints in 1976
but this year nothing.
Number 4:
restaurant, loan application,but there are no ...
Sufficient guarantees for the ... ...
.. protect both their interests,
as ours.
I went to borrow the money
Building a restaurant of 3000 m2 ...
.. That would be an average
2 million per year, gross.
And this son of a whore
gave it to another.
What happens, what happens?
- Nothing, nothing happens.
Jim, you know what I told this man?
You know what I said?
That, when this is over
I'm the bogeyman ...
... I read everything that is written.
And I also read some objections I
wrote some time ago, some things ...
.. that happened years ago.
I think I remembered the most.
Is not it Rick?
Not?
All the little things too.
It's true.
I hope this is not going away.
I can assure you ...
ladies and gentlemen.
The fact that this person
luck was with me.
I am calm,
I have no nerve in my body.
It's a damn lucky,
any nervous ...
would cover his head long
ago have blown down.
And I swear to God,
I had problems.
Had serious problems.
If you have a gun and decision
someone to abduct,
You can not move out.
I would like all
people thank ...
Who supported me
during these days.
And I also want my brothers Jimmy
and thank George,
Mark and John. And Johnny, I can
not remember his name.
Johnny Ferguson.
Corisis Hall finally let go.
And handed over to the police.
The judge spoke to him
free from the crime.
But he was included in
a psychiatric hospital.
Let me say something.
We live in the greatest country in the world.
But this is what ..
.. undermined the freedoms that
my father and my mother ...
.. search came from Greece here.
And probably all
ancestors, I'm sure.
I may not be a champion,
but would be less than John Wayne better.
I guarantee.
I did nothing.
For three days,
the street was ...
A man and a violent madman
on his back.
Throw the weapon.
Throw the weapon.
San Diego, 1979.
Sam Brown, shot from the sidewalk
