with the hood up when I go shopping tomorrow. I'll look stupid but some people may catch my message.

to support a local protest on Monday. As an older guy I never thought I'd have one, but this situation changed my mind. Besides, it actually looks pretty cool on me. It's warming up now so I won't really be able to wear it until next fall, but I'll wear it Monday because I think it's important.

Need to go to bed b4 my blood pressure explodes. Stay safe, everyone - especially if you're exercising your right to wear hoodies or hijabs.

The San Diego lady who was beaten has died.

I have one from each of the colleges I attended, my brothers attended and my nieces & nephews attended. I have one for 2 different pro football teams that I like, and 3 different ones from cities I have visited.

Being a 55 year old female, wearing one I don't think will get me killed, however I wore one 3 days this week, when the weather was cooler in solidarity.

That's in addition to another L.A. march for Trayvon today sponsored by Occupy the Hood.

At the link, they also ask people to send in photos of themselves in hoodies.

and, as a woman of a certain age, I'd certainly be one hot flash away from insanity.

That said, my son wears one nearly every day - even before the murder of Trayvon. All this talk about how hoodies look threatening or "ghetto" makes us laugh. Geraldo should visit any middle or high school in this country to see how absurd his statement was.
