Groups will respond to mouse events.  The event might be caught by a 
handler in a containing control or group or, if the group has 
background behavior set, the card.  A front script might also steal it 
away

Perhaps you defined a mouseDown handler in an contained control.

Example:

Suppose you have a control owned by a group that is on a card.  The 
path is like this:

==> front scripts ===> control ====> group ====> card ===> ...
