If you read the Knoxville rally article and wondered, read this

I've gotten some questions from readers about the rally I wrote about in my article at AC.

At the risk of being accused of beating a dead horse, I want to make something clear so that everyone who wonders will understand without having to write to ask me:

My story was the attempt of a novice freelancer to produce a news story. It was written with the intent of being as unbiased as possible. This was done in the hopes that it would be accepted as a news story rather than a general article, which might fetch less than the flat rate for news does.

The article in no way represents my endorsement of any political group or belief held by any group or persons quoted or referenced in the article or in the comments posted in response to the article.

As a Christian with traditional Anabaptist beliefs, I don't participate in political matters. I will say that I believe violence against any person at any time is wrong regardless of the person's race or political affiliation.

As a human being, I make mistakes, and reporting on a topic that is so closely tied to politics despite my religious convictions against involving myself with political issues was one.

Thanks to all of my readers but I'm afraid if you're only here because of the Knoxville article you'll probably find my work terribly boring from here on out as I am sticking to topics I'm more experienced in.

My heartfelt sympathies and prayers are with the victims' families in this time of grief.
