Is this weak of a button steal?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

BB ($89.65)
UTG ($73)
UTG+1 ($50)
MP1 ($34.50)
MP2 ($49.50)
CO ($83)
Hero ($75.80)
SB ($49)

Preflop: Hero is Button with Ahttp://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...miles/club.gif, 7http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...iles/spade.gif.
5 folds, Hero raises to $2, 1 fold, BB calls $1.50.

Flop: ($4.25) Jhttp://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...es/diamond.gif, Ahttp://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...iles/heart.gif, 6http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...es/diamond.gif (2 players)
BB bets $3, Hero folds.

Only read is BB is 15/2/.8 over ~30 hands. Easy fold?

If it folds to you on the button with a hand like this do you just fold? I think I would play raise>fold>call in this spot.

30 hands is way too few for a post-flop read, imo. His pre-flop numbers suggest he might be a nit, which is why I like a raise here.

I like the steal, personally. I steal with a lot worse.

I steal with a lot worse, too. Just not with horrible one-pair reverse-implied odds hands like A7. This isn't limit holdem; you can get yourself into more trouble than it's worth versus a tricky opponent.
