Something wrong with the clip?
Quote
[Ron is attempting to walk in the hospital; Willie is beside him]
Ron Kovic:
Am I good? Hey
[drags himself forward]
Ron Kovic:
, am I good?
Willie:
Man, you're one crazy Marine, Kovic - so gung-ho and everything, but you don't know shit about what's really happenin' in this country.
Ron Kovic:
Fuck you, Willie.
Willie:
I'm serious man. It ain't about burnin' the flag and Vietnam, man. While we fight for rights over there, we ain't got no rights at home. It's about Detroit and Newark, man. It's about racism, man.
Ron Kovic:
Is that right?
Willie:
Because you can't get no job at home. Vietnam is a white man's war, a rich man's war.
Ron Kovic:
(contemptuously) Where's my money?
Willie:
I'm serious, man, you gotta read some books. There's a revolution going on, Kovic. Brothers are gettin' it together, and if you ain't part of the solution, man, then you're part of the problem.
