$10 NL HE 6-max: $10NL facing raise in BB w/AJo

How should I have played this hand? The raiser was pretty loose preflop. Should I have fired when he checked to me on the flop? I had position on the raiser, but wasn't sure what to do post flop.

full tilt poker No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (6 handed)

CO ($10)
Button ($28.68)
SB ($13.95)
Hero ($12.65)
UTG ($10.23)
MP ($4)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A[:club:], J[:spade:]. MP posts a blind of $0.10.
1 fold, MP (poster) checks, 2 folds, SB raises to $0.4, Hero calls $0.30, MP folds.

Flop: ($0.90) 6[:heart:], 3[:spade:], 4[:diamond:] (2 players)
SB checks, Hero checks.

Turn: ($0.90) T[:spade:] (2 players)
SB bets $0.6, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $1.50

Results below:
No showdown. SB wins $1.50.

1. players that post the bb early usually aren't any good.

2. preflop you don't know that you will have position against the sb as MP1 still has to act (see point 1).

3. AJ against an loose villian and the possibility of being out of position against an unknown make this are a clear preflop fold for me.

Fold pf makes sense, I 3bet pf here quite a bit, MP likely doesn't have anything as an early post and SB is loose.

If you're not going to take the initiative pf, then fold > call. On the flop, you can fire, but you're going to have to fold to any raise and shut down to a call.
