Forrest Gump Apologization Analysis
I spend more time apologizing than posting. In the middle of the discussion on Forrest this week I was informed that some information was incorrect. I took exception, as the source was the Library of Congress (LOC). I wrote them providing them my documentation and was shocked when informed the information was incorrect. To make matters worse the message to me had been altered their (LOC) originally message read quite differently.

First and foremost regardless of events it was and is my responsibility and mine alone. I began ill in 2007 and there were periods as my health declined that I had to request assistance. So using my email and accounts researched continued.

I am much worse and to the point as I told Brother Kenny Ford when I could not produce a paper on whether or not Irish or white slavery existed. I should just hang it up but I was trying to hold on until this next operation made a difference. But enough about me for whatever reason an individual received document evidence concerning Forrest involvement with the Ku Klu Klan and Fort Pillow and for some reason modified the material to read like what is found on several sites. For example where I listed General William Tecumseh Sherman held the investigation and made comments to Forrest should be hanged it was held was held by his brother Senator John Sherman of Ohio.

Most importantly apologizing to the induvial involve and to the member of Southern Heritage Preservation Group (SHPG) and Dixie Outfitters. I can offer no excuse and there is none. I can promise an accurate and factual response to Forests in the areas questioned. More importantly I have verified other material that was handled on my behalf and can promise I will personal ensure there will not be a

    I just finished rereading your Nov. 15th email and it's quite apparent (if I'm not mistaken) that you are now apparently insinuating that some homeowners are the reason behind your dubious actions. Shifting blame at this point in time doesn't seem appropriate or a principled thing to do. Nevertheless, that's your call. Do those homeowners know that they are being held responsible for your actions?…

    The number of dead in Vietnam was 58,000 and wounded is estimated to be around 300,000. Countless Vietnam veterans were psychologically scared, while other was embittered by poor treatment the public gave them when they came home.

    A guilt ad, according to Jack Solomon, is the manifestation of the American consumer’s weakness to general social stigma. Solomon illustrates this with examples of advertisements that reveal the American consumer’s “need” to stave off social rejection, to insure their own health, and to be competitive. Via guilt-trip tactics, advertisers manipulate the American consumer with guilt ads to make them think they need the advertised product so they can conform to the status quo. These guilt ads essentially help reinforce the American consumer-based society.…

    When reading these stories of the rasping truth and then reading the responses of the accused men, I became extremely enraged. They would contradict themselves and always blame the laws, that they were merely following orders, "Accused Boger would you care to reconsider your statement that you never fired a shot in the camp. Accused #2: I stand by my statement today and a thousand years from now I will stand by it. Not that I would have been afraid to shoot. I would only have been carrying out orders" 2. This man then continues to respond on the next page with "I did once"3. This really agitates me. Almost every one of the accused denied it first then eventually gave up and started to blame the obedience that led them to do it. They then start to try and make it sound like they should be victims too. "As an old soldier I was able to save many lives by helping with the evacuations. My own son was killed"4. This is where an accused person tries to make it seem like they should take pity on him. His son died? What about the…
