Quotes

[Reverend Jerry Gruidl is showing Louis the Aryan Nations church]
Jerry Gruidl: There's no armed guards or anything. Anybody that's white is welcome all the time.
Louis Theroux: What about people who aren't white?
Jerry Gruidl: Well, uh, they would be very uncomfortable up here, I think.
Louis Theroux: But would they be welcome?
Jerry Gruidl: No.
Louis Theroux: [smiling] No?
Jerry Gruidl: No, what would be the point?
Louis Theroux: Umm... just so they could have a look round?
