Bust of Nathan Bedford Forrest removed from TN State Capitol
MikeW replied to MikeW's topic in General Chat
Click the link for the guys blog update: UPDATE 2:00pm: I just got word that the bust of Nathan Bedford Forrest was not removed, but moved closer to the Senate to make room for the addition of Keeble’s bust. I’m still waiting on a call from the Tennessee State Library. UPDATE 2:51pm: The Tennessee State Library called with a wealth of information. The bust movements are done under the auspices of the state’s Capitol Commission. Forrest’s bust was moved one niche to the right into a more prominent spot while a bust of President Johnson was moved to Forrest’s old spot from an area where lobbyists hang out. Forrest’s bust used to be the first thing you saw when you exited the House, angering many black legislators. A smaller bust of Governor John Sevier was moved into a collection of former Governors. The bust of Keebler was placed in Gov. John Sevier’s old niche and will remain covered until an official unveiling in February. It cost $35,000 to create from funds appropriated by the legislature about two years ago. -

Bust of Nathan Bedford Forrest removed from state capitol in chains - Nashville Local News - Fwix Bust of Nathan Bedford Forrest removed from state capitol in chains by Christian Grantham - 12:10 pm - January 6th, 2010 The bust of prominent founding member of the Ku Klux Klan Nathan Bedford Forrest was removed from Tennessee’s State Capitol today to make way for the bust of the state’s first African American legislator Sampson Keeble. At least one unnamed lawmaker protested moving the bust of the Civil War Confederate Lt. General whose name and presence on public buildings and parks has long been a source of racial tension. In the 1960s, the state legislature struck Forrest’s birthday from state calendars. Middle Tennessee State University removed a commemorative plaque honoring him on the University Center in the 1990s. The state still issues official proclamations on Nathan Bedford Forrest Day every July 13 to honor his birthday. Keeble served as the first African American lawmaker in Tennessee in 1872 In November 1872, riding the coat-tails of a sizeable popular vote for President Grant, Sampson W. Keeble, who was listed on the Radical ticket along with Philip Lindsley and James W. Ready, was narrowly elected to serve as Republican representative of Davidson County to the 38th Tennessee General Assembly, which convened on January 6, 1873. Grant was enormously popular among black voters, so Keeble picked up those votes, but he certainly won a number of white votes as well, from people who found his moderate political stance acceptable. Keeble was the first African American to serve as a member of the state legislature . . . and the last for some time – it would be eight years before another African American member was elected. Progress...out with the old

I used a Surefire 6P LED on mine. Maybe something with more than 80 Lumens or UV would work better, good question. The charge on mine would not last "overnight"...an hour or two at best.

Eric that is the Weaver off of the PSS. Your ole 10x is on something else. I may have the Us Optics USMC MST-100 on the way soon (fingers crossed).

I tried them on they would not stay put very long. You may want to superglue them to be safe. They dont hold a charge as long as the ad says that they will either....just my experience. I hope that you experience is much better
