No sirre, bob. Can't have no steenkin' 6'3" 300+ pounders saunterin'
along the road without that reekwired offic'u's paper trail. If'n we
'llowed sich un'merican activities I s'spect our WAY OF LIF' would jist
collapse rit' there on the spot.
An' we mit' has to have us a leetle chat about you using that "umbrage"
in public. There mit' be women-folk and yunguns about.
