There is one redeeming factor to General Forrest. He knew when the war was over unlike a lot of Freepers.

And when would that have been? After Lee surrendered and went into retirement, when Davis was imprisoned, after even Watie ceased fighting, General Forrest helped organize the guerrilla forces that wore down the occupation until it was finally ended.

You must be referring to those FReepers who support banning the Confederate flag. The ones who condemn those who want to honor their ancestors. Those who would ban all things confederate... you know, it typical Hugo Chavez fashion. They must be the ones you are referring to. They are the ones in lock step with the Chris Dodds, the Ted Kennedys and the Chuckie Schumers on this issue. If you don't like it, ban it.
