X-Men: Days of Future Past2014

Senator Brickman:
We are reviewing our defense expander ages, and all the black books are being opened. We can't support a weapon that targets our own citizens. If these Mutants as you describe are already living among us, then they are living here peacefully.

Senator Parker:
We haven't had an incident in over 10 years.

Senator Davis:
After what happened in Cuba!

Senator Parker:
It was never confirmed. [Addressing Trask] We have very real enemies out there: The Russians, the Chinese.

Senator Brickman:
We are talking about a 10th of a 10th of our population.

Dr. Bolivar Trask:
Allow me to read something to you.

Senator Brickman:
Please.

Dr. Bolivar Trask:
This was acquired from our friends in the CIA. [Opening a folder] It's a distantation written by a mutant at Oxford University and I quote "To Homo Neanderthalensus, his mutant cousin: Homo Sapiens, which is us, was an aberration. The arrival of the mutated human species, Homo Sapiens, was followed by the immediate extinction of their less evolved kin." [Closes the folder] Well now, we are the Neanderthal.

Senator Brickman:
Speak for yourself, Dr. Trask.

[Members of Congress laugh quietly]

Dr. Bolivar Trask:
[Warning Congress] You know, when you sent our soldiers to Vietnam without the weapons they needed to win the war, you underestimated your enemy. You do that with this enemy and it won't be some border skirmish halfway around the world. This time, the war will be for our streets, our cities, our homes. By the time you see the need for my program, it'll be too late and you'll have lost two wars in one lifetime.

Senator Brickman:
[Believing Trask is insane and paranoid] We're sorry Dr. Trask, but your Sentinel Program it ain't going to fly!
