Sick Bastards

BTW, will we be changing the name of "Forrest Gump"? Can we recast an updated version without the racist Tom Hanks in the lead role?

THIS HAPPENED IN 2015 BUT IS STILL RELEVANT TODAY: A group of protesters decided to go digging to destroy a Confederate General’s grave. No kidding! Does anyone out there think this will do anything productive? It’s horrible to desecrate someone’s grave so these people are doing what they preach against…This is hateful! Let it be!
The campaigners claim it has taken officials in Memphis, Tennessee, too long to exhume Nathan Bedford Forrest – who was a lieutenant general in the Confederate States Army.
They also want the statue of the soldier on a horse on the burial site to be removed. The rebel cavalryman, who died in 1877, has been buried in the city’s Health Sciences Park since 1904.
