"...Martin put on his hoodie and ran to take cover. Zimmerman spotted him, got out of his car and followed him..."

When I put on my hoodie, I feel like I've got "cover" to commit a crime! But this is South Florida—where this past winter—I needed a hoodie only one morning.

I think the "hoodie" plays a bigger role in this very unfortunate event than people may think, right or wrong. A person of any color wearing a "hoodie" when it's hot out, and perhaps also pants down around his knees? I know that any youth I see dressed like that gets extra scrutiny from me. It may not be right that it makes me think that way, but I don't mind saying it does.
