if you see something, say something...unless it is one of the protected groups listed below.
There are many house confined older folks and medically compromised who sit by the window and watch the neighborhood like a hawk as it makes them feel useful and relevant.
To make this a racial incident is race baiting.
the real story is, people who still get newspapers????????????? aside from those with parakeets who use the paper to line the cages or housebreak puppies.
Some people have too much time on their hands and too little sense. I got the police called on me while I was watering new sod.
I gather that you didn't run to the media and try to make something racist out of it though. Makes me wonder just how sad and pathetic a "news" station has to be to try to make a story out of this. Let alone a washed up talking head trying to make a name for himself.
CNN, a national embarrassment.

Yeah because in the USA nothing says terrorism like a young child with a newspaper bag picking up newspapers.
Paper boys don't normally take newspapers off your porch. It was obviously suspicious and unsurprising that someone called the police. I'd love to meet (and laugh at) the goofball CNN media guy that decided this story supports the current calling-the-police-while-white narrative.
Unsurprising to call the cops for someone taking newspapers? Really? In what world do you live in that that type of situation warrants calling the cops? That is beyond paranoid & a complete waste of time & money. Give me a break.

Get on that!
He didn't have a newspaper bag. He was in a car, jumping out and running to front doors to take stuff off porches. There was a legitimate concern that he was a porch pirate stealing deliveries.

Were you using a hose?
