Forrest sucked *** as a person and deserved to have his statue brought down and this has nothing to do with the event mentioned in the OP.
It is best that it is down, even though it has absolutely nothing to do with the city’s problems. The way the city leaders vilified the statue, and celebrated removing it was stupid (and one of the city council members ended up buying $2 million worth of property for $2,000). Like most things it seems the city leaders are doing, they celebrate doing stupid stuff that is meaningless, all while having zero impact on real issues.
My previous post was based on seeing these idiots celebrate and searching out every camera possible the night they took a statue down, but sat around hiding with their thumbs up their butt when those idiots shutdown a major interstate. They were practically silent when an accused murderer died trying to kill two US Marshals and all his thug friends started rioting. They constantly refuse to support the police. Also, this incident has hardly been reported here in Memphis.
