On his radio show March 11, 2011, Dennis said about the 1994 Northridge earthquake: “That was unbelievably jolting. I’ve been through a lot of earthquakes living in Southern California but that one was scary and I don’t get scared easy. That shook my house to its foundations. I thought the house was going to fall down.
“For those of you who have never experienced an earthquake, one of the worst aspects is the sound.”
“Peter King of New York had this one-day hearing on domestic terrorism. He had people from every angle speak.”
“It’s a very responsible question that many Muslims acknowledge — how do you explain the radicalization of some American Muslims who attend a mosque and hear hateful things about the United States and their parents don’t understand what’s happened to them. The Muslim parents of one terrorist wanted to know where did my child pick this up.”
