I ain't supportin' this bill about sickle cell awareness day. Ain't nobody got time for this. Why we gotta have a whole day for this? It ain't gonna do nothin' for me or anyone I know. This is just a waste of time and money. We got bigger issues to deal with than this.

I don't understand why this is necessary. It seems like a waste of time and resources. There are so many other important issues that need attention. Why focus on this? #confused
