    You forgot to mention that he was asked to speak at one of the 1st NAAPC meetings (and did). And the Grand Wizard of the KKK thing is NOT proven. Forrest in fact distanced himself from that organization as you pointed out. In any event, he was a very smart tactician & courageous ..... had 30 horses shot out from under him ....and he once said that he was up one horse ahead having killed 31 Yankees in combat.

    I am surprised to hear that about Matt Bevin. I just voted for him in the primary for governor. Mitch McConnell does not surprise me one bit. He might as well be a Democrat.

    You've convinced me. I've decided we're no longer going to sing Amazing Grace. After all, its author was a notorious slave trader.

    I grew up in the same time period and watched as peaceful desegregation took place over the objections of whites and blacks alike.
