Demonstrated Genius: Video Prank Shows How Innocent People Can Unwittingly Become Radical Protest Leaders

Published 1, September 18, 2009 Bizarre , Criminal law , Society 9 Comments

    Great ‘Fesser T,

    That song playing is the great Scotland the Brave!

    The tune could cause a Scot to march into oblivion, red flag or no…

    The idea for this prank comes from a scene of a Charlie Chaplin movie (“Modern Times”, I think).
