Rowan Williams, the former Archbishop of Canterbury, has a few choice words for Christians and, I suspect, a lot of other folks:
"When you've had any contact with real persecuted minorities you learn to use the word very chastely,...Persecution is not being made to feel mildly uncomfortable. 'For goodness sake, grow up,' I want to say." He added the level of "not being taken very seriously" or "being made fun of" in Britain and the United States is not comparable to the "murderous hostility" faced by others,....
Boy, if he had said that before Trayvon, maybe the 70-80% of white Americans might have, at least, understood the black reaction (though blacks were still incorrect),...
