Quotes
-
Damian Thomas : I know y'all got a job to do, but this story gets old. Rich white guy gets shot, cops go nuts, start rounding up innocent Black men. The FBI gets involved.
Special Agent Stuart Scola : Okay. A United States congressman was murdered. This country is at a tipping point.
Damian Thomas : And yet five miles away in his own district, the murders of young Black men barely register, so forgive me if I'm not shedding any tears for this two-faced politician.

Damian Thomas : You think I killed Logan Reed?
Special Agent Tiffany Wallace : You stood outside his house last week with a gun yelling that he needed to disappear, so, yeah.
Damian Thomas : I admit I got carried away with that, but I didn't mean what I said. I don't even own a gun.
Special Agent Stuart Scola : All right, let's try this again. Maybe this time don't treat us like idiots.
Damian Thomas : [he's shown a camera still with said gun circled] Come on, man. I took that gun off a kid at the rally. He was a hothead. I don't stand for violence.
Special Agent Stuart Scola : Except for when you're making death threats.
Special Agent Tiffany Wallace : Or someone throws a brick through the congressman's window.
Damian Thomas : The hothead did that. It's a good thing I took away his gun.
Special Agent Stuart Scola : You give it back to him?
Damian Thomas : I got rid of it at a gun buyback. I got the receipt, if it helps.
