Please uprate so more people can find this, I agree the content doesn't deserve it but the awakening that is happening needs to see the propaganda this video represents.

"No one can terrorize a whole nation, unless we are all his accomplices."

This video has more videos than the original at LAPDonline1 posting.

Police Chiefs across the country are supporting a community watch project in the name of anti-terrorism that encourages citizens to spy on each other and report any suspicious behaviour to police.

The terroristic characteristics that are to be reported under the iWATCH program include wearing clothes that are too big.

"If you see something, say something."

Program materials list nine types of suspicious behavior that should compel people to call police, and 12 kinds of places to look for it. Among the indicators:

_If you smell chemicals or other fumes.

_If you see someone wearing clothes that are too big and too heavy for the season.

_If you see strangers asking about building security.

_If you see someone purchasing supplies or equipment that could be used to make bombs.

The important places to watch include government buildings, mass gatherings, schools and public transportation.

The program also is designed to ease reporting by providing a toll-free number and Web page the public can use to alert authorities. Los Angeles put up its Web site this weekend.

"It's really just commonsense types of things," Bratton said, adding that his department is providing technical assistance to other agencies that want to adopt the program.

But American Civil Liberties Union policy counsel Mike German, a former FBI agent who worked on terrorism cases, said the indicators are all relatively common behaviors. He suspects people will fall back on personal biases and stereotypes of what a terrorist looks like when deciding to report someone to the police.

"That just plays into the negative elements of society and doesn't really help the situation," German said

  • Is this fuckin real?!?!?!?!

    For over 50 plus years, America and the American people have been endlessly bashing the Soviet Union because in some parts of it, they set up a social program of spying on one another.

    And now America is perpetuating propaganda which advocates people to do the exact same thing that they have been critizing the CCCP for.

  • God this ad makes me feel like our world is becoming like the one in George Orwell's book "1984." Always being watched. I'm glad the majority of comments see it for being ridiculous, ha ha, I could see a lot of morons buying into this sort of thing.

  • USA and North korea aren't that different after all.

  • WTF??? Is this for real?

  • this will just lead to war..

  • Fuck you America, Europe fucking hates you

  • Fuck Society

  • I guess this shows off some sign of intelligence on the propagators side, they finally realized that the only way to monitor everyone is for the people to do it for them, it just isnt possible to hire enough people to do it as you would need like 25% of the population for that huuuuuge task, and that doesnt even account for human error. The US are the true terrorists, slowly replacing trust and freedom with fear and suspicion and meanwhile the population just stand around and chant "I AM FREE!"

  • said it before saying it again AMERICA srsly GO FUCK URSELF :P

  • yes, let the "experts" decide if its a threat.. christ..

  • so you are saying that we should all be paranoid and watch out for anything. if it smells funny when i open my fridge i can call an "expert" that can determent if its a dangerous threat ? unbelievable, do ppl really fall for this ? hope it was a joke!

  • Are these Freaking liberals for obama! Do they not learn from history? Does HITLER come to mind! I bet none of then own a knife or a gun!
