Sergent Dave Karsnia: Okay. Um, I just wanna start off with your side of the story, okay. So –

Larry Craig: So I go into the bathroom here as I normally do, I’m a commuter too here.

DK: Okay.

LC: I sit down, um, to go to the bathroom and ah, you said our feet bumped. I believe they did, ah, because I reached down and scooted over and, um, the next thing I knew, under the bathroom divider comes a card that says Police. Now, um (sigh), that’s about as far as I can take it, I don’t know anything else. Ah, your foot came toward mine, mine came towards yours, was that natural? I don’t know. Did we bump? Yes. I think we did. You said so. I don’t disagree with that.

DK: Okay. I don’t want to get into a pissing match here.

LC: We’re not going to.

DK: Good. Um…

LC: I don’t, ah, I am not gay. I don’t do these kids of things…

Another doozy of a quote comes from Karsnia, “I guess I’m gonna say I’m disappointed in you, sir. I just really am… I mean, people vote for you.” Not anymore…
