Am I not correct that Forrest was a founder of the KKK? I remember my father bumping heads with those cowards during my long ago childhood in Indiana.
Happily most of us here do not celebrate the Klan or have any illusions about it. It is an evil conglomeration of ignorant cowards who band together to prey on the weak and helpless. Being from Indiana I am quite familiar with it.
Invoking praise for the KKK even if you are joking is not a good thing for this forum.
No sir, you are not. Another well known myth spread by forces of the north. Forrest disassociated himself with the Klan because of their racist stance in '69. If you would like to know General Forrest's true feelings, I would suggest you read his speech to the Jubilee of Pole Bearers in '75.
This is just another in the long line of travesties done in the name of yankee revisionism
