Fear and Misunderstanding in Society
George
You know, this used to be a helluva good country. I can't understand what's gone wrong with it.
Billy
Huh. Man, everybody got chicken, that's what happened, man. Hey, we can't even get into like, uh, second-rate hotel, I mean, a second-rate motel. You dig? They think we're gonna cut their throat or something, man. They're scared, man.
George
Oh, they're not scared of you. They're scared of what you represent to em.
Billy
Hey man. All we represent to them, man, is somebody needs a haircut.
George
Oh no. What you represent to them is freedom.
Billy
What the hell's wrong with freedom, man? That's what it's all about.
George
Oh yeah, that's right, that's what it's all about, all right. But talkin about it and bein it - that's two different things. I mean, it's real hard to be free when you are bought and sold in the marketplace. Course, don't ever tell anybody that they're not free cause then they're gonna get real busy killin and maimin to prove to you that they are. Oh yeah, they're gonna talk to you, and talk to you, and talk to you about individual freedom, but they see a free individual, it's gonna scare em.
Billy
Mmmm, well, that don't make em runnin scared.

Customer 1
You know, I thought at first that bunch over there, their mothers had maybe been frightened by a bunch of gorillas, but now I think they were caught.
Customer 2
I know one of them's Alley-oop - I think. From the beads on him.
Customer 4
Well, one of them darned sure is not Oola.
Customer 1
Look like a bunch of refugees from a gorilla love-in.
Customer 2
A gorilla couldn't love that.
Customer 1
Nor could a mother.
Customer 3
I'd love to mate him up with one of those black wenches out there.
Customer 4
Oh, now I don't know about that.
