As if the TIPS program wasn’t bad enough, the LAPD now has a program called iWatch, which encourages others to report anything that doesn’t seem right.

“You report, let the police decide” is their mantra.  It is incredibly creepy and should be smacked out of existence as soon as possible.

By the way, the guy who says, “My name is Chris Matthews,” is lying.  He’s just an actor.  It’s likely that all the people in this video are actors who don’t really care about iWatch, the LAPD, and/or their communities.

If you see, hear or smell something suspicious … Report it

Can I report the LAPD or are they exempt from iWatch and will I get arrested for doing so?

It is absolutely insane to ask citizens to spy on their neighbors and report them for the slightest little thing.  I do not live in Ceauşescu’s Romania nor Stasi filled East Germany.  Then again, you already can’t make coffee in the nude at 530am in your own house because the neighbors call the cops on you.
