On the day of the funeral,
it was snowing and raining so bad.

1:00:14
By the time I got there,
there were already thousands of people.

1:00:17
Dressed in blacK. Umbrellas everywhere.
1:00:20
They had two churches set up and still
there were hundreds of people outside...

1:00:24
...who couldn't fit inside.
1:00:26
They had this parK set up,
and the parK was full.

1:00:36
''Thou shaIt not Iie down

''It is abomination.'' Matthew Shepard
Iived his Iife breaking that commandment!

1:00:45
If he repented in his dying hours,
we hope he did, if not...

Some peopIe are gonna be sent to HeII!
1:01:23
And I think you know who you are!
1:01:26
Nobody wouIdn't be here if this was just
a murder that the state was gonna handIe.

1:01:31
The state handIes hundreds of murders.
1:01:35
This murder is different
because the gays....

1:01:39
