And I'm not gonna put my daughter in a burqa. And I'm not getting' on my all-fours and braying to Mecca. And you could drop dead if you don't like it. You can shove it up your pipe. I don't wanna comprehend anymore about Islam. I don't wanna comprehend one more word about Islam. Take your religion and shove it up your behind. I'm egest of you.""What kind of religion is this? What kind of world are you living in when you let them in here with that throwback enter in their hand which is a book of dislike. Don't express me I be reeducation. They be deportation. I don't be reeducation. Deportation not reeducation. You can act C-A-I-R and impel 'em out of my country. I'd increase the American sign and I'd get out my exclaim if you did it. Without due process. You can act your due process and shove it.""What sane nation that worships the U. S.
