Please don't refer to those mouth-breathing knuckle draggers in city Hall as "chimps". That is an insult to chimps. Next thing you know we will have chimps protesting up and down Union Avenue.

What is the big deal people. Let the dang Klan do their thing! The Gays march, the NAACP march, everybody marches but heaven help us the Klan can not! What's up, we gotta share this world whether we like it or not. Let be what will be and turn your eyes to the sky. If you pay attention to the future of your soul, you won't be so angry to anyone!!!

If the klan wants to honor General Forrest, they should obey his orders to DISBAND.

The Democrats started the KKK to control the black folks. Only thing that has changed is the blacks don't have to work anymore to get thier freebies. Just vote every four years. So if the KKK wants to demostrate, let them. Go or don't go, who cares. You may find under those robes are some very educated and important citizens. And this may surprise you, there are some black folks under those robes.........

Tying the local historic organizations to the KKK is like saying Bill Cosby is a Black Panther. Don't believe the hate-mongering elected officials. Like Ophelia said "Thahts sthupeed, educahte yourself!"

Memphis' comments clearly show nothing short of racism. Are you people back in the 1860s? Who cares if the Sons of Confederacy stands against the Ku Klux Klan? Who cares if the KKK wants a rally? No one but the Memphians who are against having to work for a living, attain no education, have no original thoughts and always ride on the slavery bandwagon. Move on. This is the 21st century.

I wish the media would stop giving the Klan press. This event will turn out like the last time. Three or four people standing around for fifteen minutes. Then a few in the counter protest will take advantage destroy property, loot then blame it on the Klan. Memphis is not the city it was 100 years ago, and truth be told Forrest probability wants to be moved somewhere out of town. Remember the city Council is elected and if you don't like what they've done vote them out. Get someone in there to change things, or you can just move as WW said.
