Sorry, I see anyone walking down the street, Black kid or otherwise, and I ignore him. He ain’t bothering me, so I could care less about where he goes or what he does.

That's all well and good by most people.

Until someone they care about is victimized by a thug who is later found to have a houseful of pocketbooks, credit cards, cash, jewelry, etc., that belonged to a bunch of other people's grandmas, sisters, moms, daughters.

And then the question becomes, "He's been doing this for years; why didn't somebody stop him before he hurt so many people?!"

If I see something that does not pass the smell test, I'm going to make the phone call. I don't want my mother, sister, daughter or granddaughter to be the thugs' next victim.

YMMV

Are you saying that Trayvon had a houseful of pocketbooks, credit cards, cash, jewelry, etc., that belonged to a bunch of other people?
