NYC Leos

Post deleted. Nothing to see here. Move along.

She's supposedly a Traffic Officer, but it seems sorta staged to me too. Then there's the fact that the "homeless guy's" voice is picked up perfectly, as if he was wired for sound. It also seemed they shot this with a lot of cameras (different angles) that would have all had to be hidden...which for one of the shots would seem to be somewhere right in the middle of the sidewalk!

Even for a mere 'Traffic Officer', she seems odd. The uniform doesn't seem to fit very well, she has her left hand in her pocket, which I find peculiar -- even during training as a Corrections Officer we were chastised if we did that.

You noticed the various camera angles, and the audio. Notice how quickly and conveniently the passers-by have money at hand.

There are also very subtle verbal and postural clues, even in the introduction, which raised my suspicions. I've had a good deal of training and experience regarding con artists, so what may be suggestive or even obvious to me may be less so to others, but this entire video looks like a set up.

Apparently the 'producers' have a reputation for fake, scam videos

I see my attempt to post only the link failed. Ah well.

That wasn't about NYC LEOs. It was about homeless people being treated badly, and they admitted it being set up. The kid anyway, but why not the whole thing?

I have no idea, real or fake, but when the video is published by guys that have "Prankster" in the title, I'd be careful what I believe.

Well, yeah. I didn't believe it at all, but I'm a natural born skeptic anyway. But too many people do believe that crap, and most of them were commenting that that "bich" cop should be fired or worse. And while the video says it's a social experiment about homelessness, I think the producers knew damn well including an evil 'cop' would increase the social media hits.

So, yeah, judging purely from the comments, it was playing primarily into this cop hate thing, and the homeless bit was secondary. imo.

99.9% of ewchoob is crap anyhow. I just hate how so many eejits are into this whole 'cops are teh satan' thing.

The less intelligent they are, the more readily they believe the ******** of the day on social media. And anarchist groups have figured out how to use this to their advantage. It's not just ISIS exploiting media with propaganda.
