Bernard, I want you to know... that I try. When Jean and the kids at the school tell me that I'm supposed to control my violent temper, and be passive and nonviolent like they are, I try. I really try. Though when I see this girl... of such a beautiful spirit... so degraded... and this boy... that I love... sprawled out by this big ape here... and this little girl, who is so special to us we call her "God's little gift of sunshine"... and I think of the number of years that she's going to have to carry in her memory... the savagery of this idiotic moment of yours... I just go BERSERK!

You know what I think I'm gonna do then? Just for the hell of it? I'm gonna take this right foot, and I'm gonna whop you on that side of your face and you wanna know something? There's not a damn thing you're gonna be able to do about it.

Deputy: Now you drop that gun or I'll shoot her! I'm not gonna ask you again.
Billy Jack: You won't have to.
Deputy: What?
Billy Jack: I said shoot her.
Deputy: [cocks revolver] You'd kill her? just like that?
Billy Jack: [shakes his head] You'll kill her.
[points his rifle]
Billy Jack:
And then I'll kill you. Just like that.

Rest In Peace, Tom Laughlin.

I feel certain some of the young bucks here don't know this cult classic. Let's hope this posting moves them to rectify the matter.
RIP, Tom Laughlin. Kick some butt up there.

Possibly one of the worst written, worst acted movies of all-time...and I love it. Everybody should see "Billy Jack" at least once, Thomas.

When it comes to "worst" it's got nothing on "The Trial of Billy Jack". Holy crap, that's one of the most pretentious, ridiculous, horrible pieces of crap ever to be dumped on to film.

The theme song was as awful as the movie. But try to get it out of your head when you hear it.

RIP, "Billy".

But one is a cult classic, while the latter is just bad.

I somehow remember that awful song. I forget ten or 15 perfectly good things every day, yet my brain clings to this armpit of a ballad. No wonder I'm nuts.
