It would do well for these idiot democrats to look up the real history of General Forrest and his relationship with the KKK...At the time Forrest was the leader of the Klan, their purpose was NOT racial...They were supporting southerners who were being victimized and basically robbed by “carpetbaggers” from the north who came south after the war to take advantage of the defeated people.

When the Klan turned to racial violence he resigned.

REAL history....

Forrest is far better than the people of TN routinely elect now.
