Nathan Bedford Forrest statue removed

"We can't change history."

True, but that doesn't mean we have to continue to honor someone who's "notorious for the massacre of 300 black Union soldiers after they surrendered." [Source]
General Forrest's remains -- and those of his wife -- "will be taken, along with the statue, to the National Confederate Museum at Elm Springs in Columbia, Tennessee."
