there was this video posted about a "suspicious" guy - AA with dreadlocks - all he was doing was ringing a doorbell......is it a BURGLER???? The man was wearing flip-flops - I very much doubt that someone who may need to make a fast getaway would be wearing flip-flops....also, no mask, when there is a perfect reason to BE masked now.

Ridiculous.
