I would hope to get together with the Latino community, if I could ever have them talk to me without screaming and threatening me. So I hope to get together with the community and try to explain what we do, so that's going to be one of my missions coming up.

I can get along great with the Hispanics. In fact, I sure would like to meet them, even the politicians, maybe in the back room or whatever, have a couple of beers and try to explain. But they need to understand that I enforce the laws. I want to listen to them and hear their problems. I want them to tell me what their problems are.

If I could get the respect of 14-year-olds, I'm happy. They're the toughest audience.

Do I exaggerate? Boy, do I, and I'd do it more if I could get away with it.

I would wear a full-length cape if I could get away with it - I do love a good swirl in a fog.

I believe if the white and colored people could get together and be let alone, they would understand each other and consequently love each other.
