1
00:00:00,324 --> 00:00:01,966
- Hundreds of people turned out tonight

2
00:00:01,966 --> 00:00:04,579
for the unveiling 
of a very controversial statue.

3
00:00:04,579 --> 00:00:05,372
- Yeah, it really is.

4
00:00:05,372 --> 00:00:09,632
The Satanic Temple of Detroit revealed 
the one ton bronze statue.

5
00:00:09,632 --> 00:00:12,170
Their message, they say, 
more about laws protecting

6
00:00:12,170 --> 00:00:14,408
religious freedom than about Satan.

7
00:00:14,408 --> 00:00:15,898
Priya Mann joins us live.

8
00:00:15,898 --> 00:00:18,891
Priya, I know there was some protesters 
out there this evening.

9
00:00:18,891 --> 00:00:21,726
Did the event remain calm?

10
00:00:21,726 --> 00:00:25,585
- See, Sandor, Detroit police say
this was a relatively peaceful event.

11
00:00:25,585 --> 00:00:27,544
There were a few protesters early on

12
00:00:27,544 --> 00:00:30,726
that tried blocking the doors 
so people couldn't get in to get tickets.

13
00:00:30,726 --> 00:00:32,882
They were told to step back,
which they did.

14
00:00:32,882 --> 00:00:36,246
The same statue will be unveiled 
tonight at a secret location.

15
00:00:37,756 --> 00:00:40,062
- (reporter) As a small group 
of protesters prayed,

16
00:00:40,062 --> 00:00:42,074
hundreds waited for tickets to the unveiling

17
00:00:42,074 --> 00:00:46,343
of an eight foot tall bronze statue 
of a goat-headed Satan.

18
00:00:46,343 --> 00:00:48,545
Most of the people here agree
with the teachings

19
00:00:48,545 --> 00:00:52,117
of this Satanic temple, 
the group responsible for the event.

20
00:00:52,117 --> 00:00:54,070
- It's here, it's in Detroit,
and this is fantastic.

21
00:00:54,070 --> 00:00:55,590
We get to experience this

22
00:00:55,590 --> 00:00:57,612
and we get to see this amazing statue

23
00:00:57,612 --> 00:00:59,427
being unveiled for all the world to see.

24
00:00:59,427 --> 00:01:01,379
- I'm just excited to see 
my Lord and Savior, Behemoth,

25
00:01:01,379 --> 00:01:03,892
represented in such glory 
as Italian stone.

26
00:01:03,892 --> 00:01:05,486
I do hope his eyes gaze upon me,

27
00:01:05,486 --> 00:01:07,638
and that my allegiance is recognized.

28
00:01:07,638 --> 00:01:09,761
I don't know-- notice me, senpai!

29
00:01:09,761 --> 00:01:11,146
Notice me!

30
00:01:11,146 --> 00:01:12,172
(crowd murmuring)

31
00:01:12,172 --> 00:01:13,108
- (protester 1) Jesus!

32
00:01:13,108 --> 00:01:14,378
- (protester 2) Lord, remove--

33
00:01:14,378 --> 00:01:15,781
- (reporter) Protesters 
took the heavy rainfall

34
00:01:15,781 --> 00:01:18,838
as some sort of sign 
and even brought their own statue

35
00:01:18,838 --> 00:01:20,841
of an angel crushing the devil.

36
00:01:20,841 --> 00:01:23,033
- Part of me wishes that angel statue 
would come to life

37
00:01:23,033 --> 00:01:24,562
and King Behemoth would rise,

38
00:01:24,562 --> 00:01:26,334
and two eternal juggernauts 
would do battle

39
00:01:26,334 --> 00:01:27,986
right here in the middle of the city.

40
00:01:27,986 --> 00:01:30,121
But for what is this battle raging, you ask?

41
00:01:30,121 --> 00:01:30,679
I dunno.

42
00:01:30,679 --> 00:01:32,114
What stands at the center?

43
00:01:32,114 --> 00:01:34,473
To that, I say, "My soul is at the center,

44
00:01:34,473 --> 00:01:38,632
offered up to the ageless ones,
only to be torn in twain."

45
00:01:38,632 --> 00:01:40,842
- (reporter) The unveiling 
here in Detroit is historic.

46
00:01:40,842 --> 00:01:44,235
The Satan statue has never 
before been seen publicly.

47
00:01:44,235 --> 00:01:47,880
The Satanic temple says the statue is 
a symbol for what they advocate:

48
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:49,876
the separation of Church and State.

49
00:01:49,876 --> 00:01:51,812
- It's like you can't have one 
without the other, you know?

50
00:01:51,812 --> 00:01:53,533
Like I'm equal parts God and the Devil;

51
00:01:53,533 --> 00:01:55,212
a cloak of shame covers this man

52
00:01:55,212 --> 00:01:57,493
and only supreme light 
will wash my body clean.

53
00:01:57,493 --> 00:01:59,240
But how could that light possibly reach me

54
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,204
with the thick clouds of indecency 
that surround my poor soul?

55
00:02:02,204 --> 00:02:04,091
So I carry my wrong-doings on my back

56
00:02:04,091 --> 00:02:05,532
like some kind of tormented hiker,

57
00:02:05,532 --> 00:02:06,963
lost in the hills of misfortune,

58
00:02:06,963 --> 00:02:09,653
looking desperately for that peak
to rescue him from the valley

59
00:02:09,653 --> 00:02:11,823
of depraved, habitual self-pleasuring.

60
00:02:11,823 --> 00:02:15,165
But again, I find nothing except 
for sweaty, devastated loneliness

61
00:02:15,165 --> 00:02:17,412
and a thousand judging eyes 
staring back at me

62
00:02:17,412 --> 00:02:19,872
from the cover of 
a stolen Victoria's Secret catalogue.

63
00:02:19,872 --> 00:02:21,746
I didn't take your mail, Mrs. Pemberton!

64
00:02:21,746 --> 00:02:23,128
Stop asking me that!

65
00:02:23,128 --> 00:02:24,593
(shrilly) Leave me alone!!!

66
00:02:24,593 --> 00:02:29,708
(crowd murmurs)

67
00:02:33,328 --> 00:02:34,793
Satan's pretty cool.

68
00:02:35,573 --> 00:02:38,496
- Now, it's important to know 
that the Satan statue

69
00:02:38,496 --> 00:02:40,115
will not stay here in Detroit.

70
00:02:40,115 --> 00:02:43,155
The Satanic temple wants
to take the statue to Arkansas.

71
00:02:43,155 --> 00:02:45,098
The state capitol there,
there is a monument

72
00:02:45,098 --> 00:02:46,322
to the Ten Commandments.

73
00:02:46,322 --> 00:02:48,858
They want to put the statue 
next to it as a form of protest.

74
00:02:48,858 --> 00:02:52,124
So again, the Satan statue 
will not stay here in Detroit.

75
00:02:52,124 --> 00:02:54,256
Reporting live, I'm Priya Mann, Local 4.

76
00:02:54,256 --> 00:02:56,298
- My, the controversy will move South.

77
00:02:56,298 --> 00:02:58,311
