[In case you can't read that: He claims she was skipping around in a threatening way, carrying a suspicious package and wearing a hoodie. - John Darkow]

This picture caught my eye, as it’s addressing an issue we have been seeing a lot in society lately. Though the problem is extremely serious, the artist has thought up a way of presenting it comically. There have been too many instances where people have been accused and even killed, just because of their physical appearance. This little piece of art is, in a way, accusing the authorities as it shows them looking over the Wolf’s actions simply because Little Red Cap was wearing a hoodie and carrying a “suspicious package.” As we are all constantly reminded: if you see something, say something! And this artist has done a good job at focusing on the negative outcomes of this advice.
