“Forrest denied any association with the KKK.”

And other people have absolutely confirmed it.

Do you really think that someone involved with terrorizing and murdering people would admit it??? Prisons are full of people who deny committing crimes. Do you think they are all innocent? Of course General Forrest denied it, silly.

Southern heritage is a beautiful thing and most of our Confederate brothers are worthy of honor under their banners and flags, but let’s not delude ourselves. Next you’ll be telling me that blacks LOVED slavery because a few hundred slaves served the Confederacy in exchange for freedom.

Don't you DARE to presume what I will be telling you next, you pompous ass!

I merely referenced the article, and what it said; that does not give you license to publicly slather me with your slimy babble. Do you take your debating instruction from Chris “Spraymouth” Matthews?

What sources do you cite for that accusation? That Forrest was involved in the beginning of the KKK is in little dispute, no evidence of being or advocating “Nightriders” is there.

Can we see citations? Not accusations, but the confirmations?
