Default I could have Zimmerman'd it...

....but I didn't.

Just got back from picking up two barbecue dinners from a local church
fundraiser (chicken and ribs) and who do I see walking up the street
towards me while I'm on the last leg of driving home? Two teen-aged
boys, both minority kids, each carrying a soft drink and a bag of chips.
Neither kid looked familiar to me.

Should I have reached for the firearm I don't carry and confronted them?
Should I have waved as I passed by them? Decisions, decisions.

I waved. They smiled and waved back.

Of course, I am used to seeing teenagers walking around here. We have a
goodly number living in the neighborhood, they have friends, and I am
sure a percentage of the couples living here have had more than one
marriage, so kids from previous couplings might be visiting.

Waving at kids is a lot better than confronting and shooting them.
