Ah, yes; the incident that introduced us to the term "white Hispanic" from the chief hustler of the day, Reverend Al. A wholly avoidable situation all around. As I recall, Martin's father lived in the subdivision. How hard to say, "My dad's house is right around the corner. Follow me."

In fairness, an ARMED community watch person is not the norm. The job is to be eyes and ears, not an enforcement mechanism. Again, avoidable, except that cannot happen with the activist wing of any cause. When possible, an incident must be framed through the lens of the cause. Perpetuating grievance is a livelihood for too many and a source of political power for others. No one is jumping off the gravy train when the grift remains in play.

There is nothing wrong with a NW member being armed. What we are told is not to engage. And there is no evidence that George did.!
