Video was taken with a digital camera by VFP Greater Atlanta Chp. 125 member, Debbie Clark
, not a professional filmmaker, and is not of professional quality {actually Debbie is being modest, the video feed isn't bad at all}. Video was unfortunately taken in segments due to the limitations of the digital camera and cut a little short due to the memory card getting full before the end of the speech. However, most of the speech is there and the full text of the speech is also below. {Visit Site Link, HERE For Full Text Of Speech}VIDEO OF LT WATADA'S SPEECH

Lt. Watada's Mother: My Son Needs Your Support
Carolyn Ho, mother of conscientious objector Lt. Ehren Watada, asks for support during her son's pre-trial hearing on Aug 17 and 18. "Whether or not he is permitted to submit evidence supporting his refusal to deploy and his first amendment rights remains to be seen," she says. "Nevertheless, the military must know that the world is watching and that justice must be served."
