Did ya'll notice this?

A black hoodie on a 103-degree day? Raise alert level. Is this the BG equivalent to a Hawaiian shirt or vest?
(Not saying the officer did anything wrong BY ANY MEANS. . . just saying that as a passerby out in the hustle and bustle, this clothing choice alone would lead me to raise an eyebrow without considering any other factors.)
Something I posted just a few hours ago in another thread:

The Annoyed Man, earlier today wrote:I think about background all the time when I'm out and about. It's not that it is always at the forefront of my mind, but rather that I catch myself doing it, and realize that I've been doing it all along. Part of the reason for that is that as part of just being generally aware of my surroundings, I am always looking for "what doesn't fit"—meaning whatever doesn't belong in the picture. It's going to be 103 in Grapevine today, and the "low" tonight will be 80º......so that guy slouching around over there with his face hidden in a black hoodie is something that "doesn't fit" the picture.
