The DHS Partners with Major League Soccer to Promote Fear
It seems to be harder and harder to keep people scared:
The Department’s “If You See Something, Say Something™” partnership with the MLS Cup will feature a “If You See Something, Say Something™” graphic that will aired on the video board during the MLS Cup championship game in Carson City, Calif. Safety messaging will also be printed on the back of MLS Cup credentials for staff, players, and volunteers and in game day programs distributed to fans. Throughout the MLS season “If You See Something, Say Something™” campaign graphics appeared on video boards and on the MLS website, and the “If You See Something, Say Something™” Public Service Announcement was read at games.
Will there also be “If You See Something, Say Something™” Day, with Janet Napolitano bobbleheads given to all the kids?
This kind of thing only serves to ratchet up fear, and doesn’t make us any safer. I’ve written about this before.
