Only to someone who rejects the possibility of growth. It is also impossible to assess Forrest without first understanding where he came from. It is very easy to be anti-slavery in the USA today. Had you grown up where Forrest grew up, and when he grew up, what would YOU believe?

BTW - lots of Union generals had no problem at all with slavery.

Omar needs to be rejected because of her views. Views she holds right now.
