I like this article by Erick Erickson on Red State. He asks very pointed questions, including the ones in this passage:
|
Why the hell must I pick a side in the George Zimmerman trial? A 17
year old boy is dead and a man who may or may not be guilty of murder is
on trial but, even if not guilty, will never again be safe because so
much outrage and so much politicization has been poured into the trial.
A 17 year old is dead. Why am I forced, as a conservative, to cheer
for the guy who took his life? And you people who support Trayvon, how
are you given a pass on seeing things from George Zimmerman’s
perspective? Why must I decide on the guilt or innocence of George
Zimmerman based on the outrage of people whose politics differ from
mine? Why must a death and trial comport to a political world view?!

The entire article is definitely reading.
