So that we can keep up with shootings where "hoodies" are involved.

13 people were shot in Chicago on Thursday night. Of course this is all fabricated because guns are illegal out side of your home. (guns in your home require a permit and a license) So there are no guns on the street in Chicago for anyone to be doing any shooting with.
And if your keeping track, here is the hoodie robbery of a Dollar store by two men in Houston a few days ago. No one was shot, however.

The link has changed from its initial appearance. The first time there was a somewhat shocking still photo showing a hooded man holding a gun right to the temple of a frightened employee. That has now been replaced by a video of two men in hoods walking into the store.

Oh, booo TAM; we're taking out PUN license away.
As for hoodies, they are trying to say if you focus on that you are racist. Hoodies are not a race thing. If you see someone in a hoodie an sunglasses, they are trying to hide their identity, period, no matter what their race is.

And now we have to take away your Tell-It-Like-Is license. Truth like that is NOT ALLOWED after a national tragedy until Al Sharpton and Bobby Rush are satisfied. Your punishment - Spike Lee will now tweet your address as the home of George Zimmerman, Darth Vader, and that guy from "No Country For Old Men"
That'll learn ya

I don't particularly care for young white thugs in hoodies with their pant's around their knees anymore than I do young black thugs. Anybody wearing a hoodie when the weather is warm calls for extra awareness.

I have a few hoodies, but don't wear them until it get's below 50 and even then only when doing certain activities. Otherwise, I'll just wear a jacket.

Yesterday, before I left the dialysis center, I had chat with my black friend, a dialysis patient, on next chair to my left. I made a quick reference to GZvz TM case and I was joking, I was wearing a red sports hoodie (in support of Mr. Marting?) AND I do carry my gun too. The gentleman went on to describe the injustice suffered by the black people for ages in US till the days of the civil liberty. It was a very interesting talk.

I have a few hoodies. They are nice for casual fall weather (pumpkin picking time). However I don't think a mom with a hoodies with little pink flowers on it is very intimidating.

Call it what you want, but I don't think there is a protected class or category of people who wear a hoodie and sunglasses due to their religion or culture
If I see a person in the middle of summer wearing a sunglasses, no problem. But if they are wearing a hoodie and all hunkered over like they are cold when they are entering a store, they're gonna be suspect.
