Eugene 'Bull' Connor was a racist Alabama commissioner who beat, sicced dogs on, and turned fire hoses on peaceful demonstrators during the American Civil Rights Movement. Bull was such a nightmare that President Kennedy quipped, 'Thank God for Bull Connor. He's helped the Civil Rights Movement as much as Abraham Lincoln.' This was because after seeing the horrific things Bull did to peaceful demonstrators, more people from all over the world began to support the Civil Rights Movement.
