Without the murder and cannibalism.” Of course, the swine probably WOULD make that analogy, too.

Dang, that takes some serious denial to make that claim. Good grief they’re either the worlds biggest liars, or they are so completely delusional that they simply live in some alternative universe. I’m not sure which it is that seems to plague modern pop culture or media.
