You buy a lighter.

Yeah.

And you can just light things on fire.

When you're a kid.

Yeah, you want to light things on fire.

Yeah.

Yeah.

There's a million times in my life I could have done something stupid and gone the wrong way.

And just by sheer luck, I didn't.

And when I talk to people like yourself who obviously are very intelligent and have a lot to contribute, and you just imagine, that could have been me, man.

It could have been any of us.

That's the thing that people need to really get in their head.

It could be any of us.

Absolutely.

Any of us.

And leaving these communities the way they are and not doing anything to try to fix them is, to me, it's the biggest failure of our government.

Other than interventional war, interventional foreign policy and starting wars that are unnecessary and costing lives, which is the worst thing we've ever done.

And that's the next worst is that we don't do anything about it.

Just think about the thing about being able to make a tattoo gun out of a piano wire or a guitar string and an engine from something else, some sort of a motor.

And you see some of the tattoos these guys make in jail.
