Annie Wersching in Boston Legal.
Katey Tanner is on the stand and says that performing is not only fun, but important to them – they are standing up for white pride. Katey repeats what her mother Ellen taught her – that minorities are winning “the race war” with Mexicans and Chinese having as many kids as they can so they can “take over”. Katey says “with our songs, we’re saying that whites need to stand up and fight back.” Alan Shore asks Katey if her parents ever abused her or her sister Lauren and if they get enough to eat. She says they are treated well. Shore asks her with whom she would want to live with and Katee replies “we want to live at home, with our family”.
(In Judge Mike Matsumura’s courtroom one of the Tanner Twins is on the stand.)
Katey Tanner: This summer we sang at a Patriot’s day picnic in Richmond and at the solstice festival in Tampa. Also, we got to do the national anthem at an anti-immigration rally in Ft. Payne.
Juliette Monroe: Katey, do you ever whish that, instead of having to perform at those kinds of gatherings, that you could do fun things like other kids… summer camp, Disneyland?
Katey Tanner: Performing is fun for us, and it’s important. We’re standing up for something.
Juliette Monroe: And what exactly are you standing up for?
Katey Tanner: White pride. I mean other groups are allowed to be proud of themselves, right?
Alan Shore: Objection. Katey, sweetheart, you weren’t asked a question.
Judge Mike Matsumura: I’d like to hear from Katey.
Katey Tanner: It used to just be, like, blacks with their marches and history month and stuff. Now it’s everyone, like the Mexicans. They illegally cross our borders then say they want to become Americans. But at their rallies, they just wave their Mexican flags and talk Spanish. With our songs, we’re saying that whites need to stand up and fight back, because the minorities, they’re winning.
Juliette Monroe: Winning what?
Katey Tanner: The race war. Not, like with gun, with babies. The Mexicans, the Chinese, they’re all having as many kids as they can so they can take over. Whites are already a minority in California, Texas and New Mexico. We’ve pretty much lost those states already.
Juliette Monroe: And who told you that?
Katey Tanner: I learned it in school.
Juliette Monroe: Your home school? The one that your mother teaches?
Katey Tanner: Yes.
(Alan Shore approaches the bench.)
Alan Shore: Katey, have your parents ever hit you?
Katey Tanner: Hit me? No.
Alan Shore: How about Lauren? To your knowledge, have they ever been violent with her?
Katey Tanner: No, they love us. Alan Shore: Do the two of you always get enough to eat?
Katey Tanner: Um, yeah.
Alan Shore: How about your health? Any aches or pains not being attended to, perhaps a sore throat from all that singing?
Katey Tanner: No.
Alan Shore: Okay, now, Katey, Ms. Monroe mentioned that your mother is your teacher. Given all that time you spend traveling and performing, does she ever let you slide a little when it comes to school?
Katey Tanner: I wish. We do way more homework and get better test scores than kids in regular schools. And whenever we take a trip somewhere, our dad always turns it into a total history lesson.
Alan Shore: I can imagine. So, you’re safe and well fed, healthy and successful. Let me ask you. As long as you and your sister could be together, and if it were up to you, with whom would you want to live?
Katey Tanner: We want to live at home with our family.
