Racism was the reason. The lone holdout's unconscious racism almost released a maniac to kill again. If people would quit demanding special treatment for their race, and quit hating people for crimes against their race that occurred 100 years before they were born, and quit assuming some affinity with criminals because their skin color is similar to their own -- the "N" word that I couldn't use would go back to being merely the scientific racial designation you will find on the birth certificate of 15% of the population old enough to live in the Villages, and I wouldn't be forced to make up silly euphemisms to mention it.
