Hoods & Hoodies

There are all kinds of hoods:

There are neighborhoods


There are range hoods


There are car hoods


There are falcon hoods


There are hooded bath towels


There is Robin Hood


In the 1950's, juvenile delinquents were called "hoods"



Some hoods are despicable:



even if displayed on/near innocent little babies




and of course there are "hoodies" aka hooded sweatshirts

Apparently it's the "wearer" that "makes" the garment "threatening".

How many of THESE hoodie wearers get a "pass"...and how many get extra (perhaps deadly ) scrutiny?
