slave dealers in the south prior to the war were much like horse dealers...providers of beasts of burden, necessary for economic advancement...forrest utilized the slave trade to advance himself economically, and became a plantation owner, and hence, his own customer...

murderer? please explain?

forrest was the spiritual leader of the original klan, made up of local self defense vigilante groups, that came into existence in order to combat the excesses of radical federal reconstruction policies...when federal troops began to go home, forrest ordered the klan dissolved...and soon became an advocate for reconciliation with black citizens...
