We're sick and tired of these stories. The reason they keep using the word ‘cannibal' about us is because they think we're savages. It's like calling Germans today Nazis because of their past, or Britain a land where witches are burned at the stake, of child slavery and public executions. It's just lazy, racist journalism.

I am sick and tired of folks that are doing everything they can to try to get a bad bill going, and then they vote against it when the bad bill's got the momentum to go through. We should be doing everything, using every tool in our toolbox, to stop bad legislation from happening.
