[A French man was held hostage by a group of people on the subway]
The Plaintiff asked for change of a dollar, when these five pulled out these weapons and held him at bay until the transit police arrived.
We thought he was crazy! We thought he was insane!
What did he do?
He talked to us.
Sir, these are not a group of thugs. These are ordinary people, simply frightened about the increased violence on the subways.
What is that weapon?
...Surface-to-Air missile launcher, sir.
It wasn't loaded, sir. I was just using it for intimidation!
People, people! Don't you see that you are just contributing to the problem? You're tearing a hole in the fabric that binds us together as civilized human beings. What I'm trying to say is...
We don't get the guns back?
[giving up] No, you don't get the guns back!
