00:00We are on our way to Williston, North Dakota.
00:06Destination, North Dakota.
00:08Hopefully to find jobs.
00:11I'm going to go out there and try to find an oil rigging job.
00:14I'll find a job within an hour or two, they said.
00:16People with ten felonies is getting a hundred grand a year.
00:19A new playing field with new opportunities.
00:22This may be some point of hope for everybody.
00:27Thought I could come out here and if I worked hard, was a hard worker,
00:30and knew what I was doing, then I'd get a job pretty easy.
00:32I'm seeing now that it's not that easy.
00:35I can't afford to live.
00:36I'm just at the end of my room.
00:41Everyone deserves a chance.
00:42This is America.
00:43That's what this country was founded on, you know.
00:45Helping your neighbors.
00:46Just being good people.
00:47We have people literally walking up to our door
00:51from all over the world saying, can you help me?
00:56If it wasn't for this place, we'd pretty much be lost.
01:00How long do we intend to support them?
01:02I can see that reaction from people.
01:04They look at me like I'm an illegal alien.
01:05They have no intention of building anything here.
01:08So what is community in this place?
01:10What are we going to do here?
01:11This is not my home anymore.
01:14Cut the hair.
01:15I'm serious.
01:16Did Jesus have sharp hair?
01:18Jesus doesn't have our neighbors.
01:25This morning investigators say they know a lot more
01:27about the two men they believe kidnapped her.
01:29But you haven't answered a single question.
01:31They are being invaded.
01:33I'm the one who's taking the risk here.
01:38You're going to nosedive some things you're getting ready to hit the fan.
01:42There was a large manipulation that went on.
01:47I came out here to save my family and it's probably going to cost my family.
01:52I will not give in to despair because hopeless should never win.
02:01And hopeless is a lie.
