More snot than sense?
Hypothetical situation:
If I decided to dress up in all black — ski mask included — and go jogging around my neighborhood for a good workout at night, would that be a crime? It might be cold so I should be completely insulated. Maybe I should take some free weights or something to help boost the cardio. Oh yeah, I don’t have any free weights though so I’ll have to take some DVD players or something. That wouldn’t be a crime would it?
Maybe not, but I guarantee you some cop would come up and start questioning me. What would give them the right? I’m not committing a crime and I’m sure I don’t have any warrants out for my arrest. Since cops don’t harass normal citizens exercising in their own neighborhoods, maybe he’s really a criminal who has shot the real cop and is impersonating him. I should run. Fast.
Yeah I have worked at a law school too long. Or maybe it’s just this cold is causing me to have more snot than since.

Actually I could see that happening…now what does that say about me. Maybe I read the newspaper too often and the cop blogs.
