On Thursday afternoon, we let the Oklahoma internet world know that US Representative Markwayne Mullin "loosely" used the words "Volunteer Walk" in place of "Trail of Tears" in a recent interview with Fox News. Here it is in case you missed it.
The story created the expected level of outrage. I guess people around here get mad when an Oklahoma politician who is a card-carrying member of the Cherokee Nation creates a more casual and less abrasive way to describe the atrocious forced relocation of Native American tribes to Oklahoma in the early to mid 19th century (a.k.a The Trail of Tears).
