Maybe I'm just overly... what's the word?

Why exactly is it... that "sensitivity" always turns out to be a one way street?

-- Des Moines, IOWA -- "We could see that the victims were white. And we could see that the offenders were African-American, but we could not see what provoked or caused the assaults.

"My concern is that we were calling it something beyond what it was."

Uh-huh.

See, Mo... it's the "acting up" that we're actually worried about.
