How are the black citizens of Tennessee supposed to feel about this? Since Forrest represents Tennessee values, how should they feel about Tennessee? I guess they don't count. Or maybe they count as 3/5ths of a Tennessee citizen?

Sometimes I laugh at this idea because the highest populations of black americans are in these southern states, so essentially those people arguing that the South should be its own country of ass backwards morals so that the rest of the country can be free to continue progressing, would essentially be supporting legitimate persecution of blacks. Allowing them to create their own government would be horrible.

It would have to happen, but I guarantee just like the last time, not everyone would have the means to do it and will be stuck there and have to live with it.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nathan_Bedford_Forrest

Nathan Bedford Forrest (July 13, 1821 October 29, 1877) was a Confederate Army general during the American Civil War. Although scholars admire Forrest as a military strategist, he has remained a highly controversial figure in Southern racial history, especially for his alleged role in the massacre of black soldiers at Fort Pillow, his 18671869 leadership of the white-supremacist/terrorist Ku Klux Klan, and his political influence as a Tennessee delegate at the 1868 Democratic National Convention.

It's not dead but it's overplayed by race baiters like you. The KKK literally has less than 10,000 members....it's in the thousands, maybe not even 8 thousand.

As for a statue, who cares. It's a damn statue it's not coming to life.

First, the KKK is one organization that reflects one type and level of racism, not the full range of it or its primary expression. In a country with huge mass incarceration, segregation, wealth and income inequality, and other racial issues, you can't point to KKK.

Second, you constantly defend racists and it's noticeable.

Not actually a racist post but it definitely is on gfaqs lol.

Anyway, if the south broke off and created its own country and government what would happen if it was a tremendous failure? Would people claim they were oppressed or kept down by someone? Perhaps some people would think they were given free reign and still couldnt establish a successful 1st world country... would that be racist of them to think that?

Just because not everyone is stupid enough to be actual KKK members doesn't mean there aren't a shitload of racists. But hey, not surprised in the least that you'd defend this.

I'm more curious to see how full blown racist the rest of the Southern politicians would go without the rest of the country calling them out on their racism.

we'll take the northeast and minnesota but the rest of you guys are on your own. :v


As long as MA is included, it's fine by me. Either VT or NH would have to come too for border reasons. VT would be more agreeable of the two imo

That was going to be my next question, are they celebrating that part of his life? Are they going to focus on his pro-racial stuff (again if that even was him) or is it just a blanket "Forrest Day" thing without any talk about his crimes/evils and his dismissal of those things.

It's early on a Saturday morning and I'm too lazy to go down a rabbit hole of TN politics myself. >_>
