    You can probably look him up. But I grew up in the generation of Jonesboro or Columbine. take your pick. Anyway we had this guy from Jonessboro come to speak to us how his wife died and his childeren died. One student popped up and to his face, well at the microphone and called him out that he was bullshit and just milking money He asked the student how dare he challenge him. But the student held his own. And simply asked him how much are you getting paid for talks like this. The he started get on the way he dressed called him anarchist and other slurs. It really told alot about him he ended it about five minutes after my friend sat down. I think he never spoke again about his wife dieing or son. Ever since then I like to go to meeting where there is an open mic and call them out. I don’t want other people to do it just off the cuff. I research the people talking and use the information gathered, When I was back in AR it was funny because I would go to city council meeting then when it was my turn I would fuck them up by having them answer questions about the law and everything else. Its funny as long as you have your information right and putting to the quote unquote MAN
