We usually associate bullies with being big, strong people, so the authors use of the word “muscle” helps picture the image of Bull Connor as a bully.

Answer:

The word "muscle" helps readers connect with an image of Bull Connor as a bully who pushes others around. The author could have used a word like "power," but that would not connect with the reader in the same way. "Muscle" helps readers imagine him using his power to hurt others, which creates a negative tone.
