Personally, I am offended more by the comment that since Peter is "from the coast" he is more racially sensitive to terms. Man oh man, talk about a mouthful. Does that make everyone from the South automatically less sensitive, aka a bigot? When I was in Vegas last year, I spoke to several Blacks/African-Americans, from cabdrivers to people who worked in casinos to fellow ticketholders at concerts and to a man (or woman) once they found out I was from Arkansas they raved about Clinton (native born Arkie) and said he was "their man" and "the first Black president."
Being from the coast doesn't give anyone a leg-up on racial sensitivity.
My 2 cents.
