 I wish I could say I'm shocked by what I've seen here today. The truth is -- I have spent the past ten years of my life predicting just such an incident. There are people in the government and the liberal media, who -- for whatever reason -- would like you to believe we have nothing to fear from the mutant populace. I urge the American public to wake up and see the "mutant menace" for what it IS, if for no other reason than... for the children. 

—Senator Robert Kelly
