    Immorality aside, this is both socially irresponsible AND socially dangerous! The risk of inducing trauma to an individual at risk is bad enough, but worse, there is the risk of triggering an unstable individual into vigilante thinking. This is an invitation for a disaster! Let us not forget how many killings have been making the news, employees in their work place, children and young adults at how many schools!?!
    In contrast, in a convenience store with only him, the clerk, and me, a legitimate on-duty police officer grabbed me from behind and asked the clerk, "Did you know this guy is a felon, wanted on a warrant for his arrest?" The clerk's mouth fell wide open, eyes bugged out! I simply said, "Hi Ken, how's it going?" Only 3 of us, the clerk laughed with us... it was funny, safe, harmless, because I knew the officer and the clerk well, but they didn't know each other.
    PUNCH LINE: What if there had been others in there? What if one of them had a gun and drew the gun to help the police? What is the possibility someone would have been shot by accident? I also worked in that store, and I had many customers who carry a gun! Some of them carried one because they were paranoid, carrying it for "self protection!"
    These email videos are NOT in the hands of responsible pranksters, issuing the prank under controlled and safe conditions.
    HOW LONG BEFORE...
