it is very sickening.
But....Bumpers was an amazing speaker.
When my daughter graduated from the U of Arkansas, he was a guest speaker. When he walked up the isle I was tempted to put my leg out and trip him and watch him fall on his face.
Then he gave his speech. This was not long after the Columbine shootings and he gave one of the most Down speeches I ever heard.
One of the students graduating with my daughter said, about Bumpers’ speech. “Well I guess we all should just go out and kill ourselves!”
