Interviewer | What did you think | 0:01 |
of those letters you received and that you sent? | 0:01 | |
- | Very distressing because just about every second word | 0:05 |
was blacked out, so you have no idea | 0:11 | |
what he's trying to tell you anyway. | 0:14 | |
Now, you weren't allowed to, | 0:16 | |
there was no, you know, I love you or anything. | 0:18 | |
That's all blacked out. | 0:20 | |
So most of the letters, it wasn't hardly worth sending. | 0:21 | |
But you have to, you know. | 0:24 | |
And it was the same with his. | 0:26 | |
In his letters that he got from us, | 0:27 | |
all our I love yous and we all care about you, | 0:29 | |
all blacked out. | 0:33 | |
So it's mind, it's playing with his mind. | 0:35 | |
Interviewer | Why would they black out I love you? | 0:40 |
- | Because they don't want people caring about you, do they? | 0:43 |
They didn't want him to think well, hang on a minute, | 0:47 | |
someone at home does care about me | 0:49 | |
enough to worry about me being in here. | 0:51 | |
Why else would you black a message of love? | 0:54 | |
Love's all, isn't it? | 0:59 |
