I am sick of the newscasts around here where they say something like:

"The police are searching for a man approximately 6' tall, 200 lbs, wearing blue pants, a white shirt, and a brown jacket."

They never say if he is white, black, hispanic, etc. How is this level of PC supposed to help?
I dunno about other places in this country, but in So cal they are more that ready to identify a white perp given the chance, but if he is identified as a minority they are reluctant to point it out because it might offend.

I personally am offended by them hiding information that might help but that person behind bars, even if he is purple and the man is out to get him.
