mr bridwell you have to make clifford
small again or they're gonna hurt him
small but it was your love that made him
so big i mean nobody can take that away
but will he be okay your love is all he
needs create a perimeter do not let that
dog leave this park
emily elizabeth howard for your own
safety please step away from the animal
he's dangerous he's just a puppy that
creature is the property of life growth
and is a threat to our city no he's not
he never hurt anyone i swear
wow you see that he's violent no he's
just scared you would be too please
leave him alone
mr riddle you've got to do something i
can't do this on my own they're not
listening really well what have they
come
[Music]
and you thought you didn't have any
friends huh all right ladies and
gentlemen dispersed immediately
let's go ladies and gentlemen let's go
let's go let's go
see what happens when people break the
rules
emily if you want them to listen
you better speak
[Music]
hmm
let's go get that dog no please stop
no i have something i have to say
there's a lot of people here
you got this
my name is emily elizabeth
and this is my dog clifford
i know he's bigger than most dogs but
he's also the kindest most loving dog in
the whole wide world he's a freak
it's dangerous no he's not dangerous
he's just different that's all
i know how he feels because
i know what it's like to not fit in
just because you're different
it doesn't mean that it's okay to be
teased or bullied and i'm gonna guess
that many of you know how much that
hurts
emily elizabeth someone once told me
it's the people who are unique
they're the ones who changed the world
if clifford was just a regular dog we
wouldn't all be here
we've got to stand up for him emily's
right
that's right that dog saved my life
he doesn't hurt anyone he just
he loves
and if we can love each other like this
none of us would have to feel small and
all alone again
right clifford
it's not right to take him away just
because he's big and red so please
please let me keep my dog
[Applause]
who's with me
[Applause]
