I dont think its strange, I dont live in the ghetto, nor do any of my friends, but all of us have "posted up" for one reason or another. Really you're just letting others know you're up and aware.
The only people I've heard of doing this in Ohio is in the ghetto. Rightfully so I would think. Why are you letting know others your "up and aware". Unless perhaps you live in the ghetto. Ill just set the alarm if anyone wants to screw with me or a gun will do. I just don't get it. If your going out and relaxing or hanging out I see that everyday. Walking out and specifically looking around to make sure "others know you are aware" just sounds paranoid to me.
Very common where I grew up in Southern California. A lot of people will also hang out front of their house and drink beer or whatever and just sort of watch the neighborhood. Especially if they lived in Los Angeles area in the 80's and early 90's.
I see people hang out on their porch all the time. I can see that. Walking out and specifically looking to the right and left then walking back in just seems like your paranoid of others or you live in a down trotten area which you have to look around to make sure nothing bad is about to happen.
