Here his speech after he breaks down
Here it is word for word folks!!!! Nothing is over...Nothing! You just don't turn it off.It wasn't my war. You asked me, I didn't ask you and I did what I had to do to win but somebody wouldn't let us win! And I come back to the world, see all those maggots at the airport protesting me, spitting, calling me baby killer and all kinds of vile crap! Who are they to protest me. Huh?! Who are they unless they been me and been there and know what the hell they're yellin about! It was a bad time for everyone, Rambo, it's all in the past now. For you! For me civilian life is nothing! In the field we had a code of honor, you watch my back I watch yours. Back here there's nothing! Your the last in the elite group, Don't end it like this. Back there I could fly a gun ship, drive a tank, I was in charge of million dollar equipment... back here I can't even hold a job parking cars!!Huh!!
Oh my god where is everybody? Gosh I had a friend, went in the Air Force, all these guys, man, back there I always fight with guys who were my friends cause back here theres nothin.
Remember the airforce,Danforth with his black headband, I took one of his magic markers that he said he found and mailed it to Las Vegas cause we're always talkin about Vegas. And this *beep* car, this red 58 chevy convertible, always talkin about this car he said we was going to cruise to the tires fall off...we were in this bar in Saigon, and this kid come up,this kid carring this shoe shine box and they said "uh, shine please, shine" and I said no and he kept askin yeah and Joey said yeah. And I went to get a couple beers and the box was wired and he opened up the box *beep* blew his body all over the place and he's layin there *beep* screamin his pieces all over me.like I'm trying to pull him off,you know, and my friend is all over me! He's got blood and everything and I'm trying to hold him together an puttin the guy's *beep* intrails keeps fallin out.
And nobody would help. Nobody would help and he's saying "Please I wanna go home, I wanna go home" he keeps calling my name ""I want to go home, Johnny. I wanna drive my Chevy," I said, "With what? I can't find your *beep* legs! I can't find your legs."
Trautman I don't think you understand. I didn't come to rescue Rambo from you. I came here to rescue you from him. Teasle: Well, we all appreciate your concern Colonel, I will try to be extra careful! Trautman: I'm just amazed he allowed any of your posse to live. Teasle: Is that right? Trautman: Strictly speaking, he slipped up. You're lucky to be breathing. Teasle: That's just great. Colonel, you came out here to find out why one of your machines blew a gasket! Trautman: You don't seem to want to accept the fact you're dealing with an expert in guerrilla warfare, with a man who's the best, with guns, with knives, with his bare hands. A man who's been trained to ignore pain, ignore weather, to live off the land, to eat things that would make a billy goat puke. In Vietnam his job was to dispose of enemy personnel. To kill! Period! Win by attrition. Well Rambo was the best.

Teasle: Are you telling me that 200 of our men against your boy is a no-win situation for us?
Trautman: You send that many, don't forget one thing.
Teasle: What?
Trautman: A good supply of body bags.

That would have been missing the whole point of the movie. The cops had no valid reason to roust John out of town.
No they didnt... THEY CAUSED ALL OF IT!!!!
Like John said "THEY DREW FIRST BLOOD" -- They sure did..... They saw John as a Military person and many ppl do not like them for the way they treat ppl badly in other countries....... IT WAS NOT JOHNS FAULT THAT MR. GALT WAS KILLED WHEN HE FELL OUT OF THE HELICOPTER....... It was Karma that got him... HE WAS GONNA KILL JOHN!!!
ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES EVER!!!! -- They sure picked the wrong guy!!!!!! (Im glad I found a good copy (In SP mode))
Back there I can fly a gun ship, I can drive a tank, I was in charge of million dollar equipment. Back here I can't even hold a job parking cars.
First Blood was about his mind not being right. Was about his unsuccessful transition to civilian life. There was no way he wasn't going to let the Sheriff know he was not going to be pushed around.
I liked all the Rambo movies though it's different/tough looking back at them now. They were definitely Stallone's best efforts. First Blood!
