What to do if you smell a terrorist


Do you smell a terrorist? Did you know that “terrorism is a crime?” This iWatch PSA stars a cast of pretend-earnest actors encouraging you to rat out your neighbor, “if you see, hear, or smell something suspicious.” Don’t hesitate — “let law enforcement determine if it’s a threat, (says this fellow, who plays a sex-crazed Mr Pringles when he’s not playing a fear-mongering alarmist)” and “let the experts decide.” Be sure to report on anyone drawing important buildings, a favorite tactic of terrorists with an artistic bent!

Here’s Fox News’ pretend news story that explains iWatch.

Do you recognize any of the other actors in this waste of money PSA?




UPDATE: Am I wrong, or is the guy who says he’s “Chris Matthews” in the iWatch campaign (left) the same guy who calls himself “Michael Busch” at UCBComedy (right)? It seems suspicious. Should I let law enforcement determine if it’s a threat, and let the experts decide?
