Better This World

How did two boyhood friends from Midland, Texas wind up arrested on terrorism charges at the 2008 Republican National Convention?

"Better this World" traces the journey of two young men from political neophytes to accused domestic terrorists and examines the impact the War on Terror has had on civil liberties and political dissent in post- 9/11 America.

In this excerpt, Directors Katie Galloway and Kelly Duane de la Vega give a behind the scenes look at their Emmy-nominated documentary.

Look at the number of views on this video and you realize why its not happening. Americans have been forming more and more militias but so far the media is doing a very good job of keeping information limited and closed. Most real hard men have jobs to do and dont have time or energy to do much research on the internet, come home from work, eat, watch tv and off to bed...

Don't Americans have a constitutional obligation to form armed militia's to fight against the government when it becomes tyrannical. I was under the impression the whole reason behind the right to bear arms was just for this purpose.

Long live fascism in America, God save us all if it exists.
