DHS must be throwing office parties nationwide, as Americans call police to report kids playing the "Assassin" water gun game.
NH police, said the game poses a threat to public safety and has resulted in a rise in suspicious person calls. Neighbors are calling police to report 'suspicious activity'.
DHS's "See Something Say Something" program is out of control, it's created a nation of spies.
"Police departments nationwide have seen the consequences of teenagers sneaking around with water guns..." East Kingston Chief Timothy J. Connell said.
DHS must be thrilled, as schools encourage students to snitch on anyone caught playing "Assassins."
"Hunter College High School is warning seniors it could ban them from prom or graduation or even snitch to college admission officers if they're caught playing a popular toy-gun game in or near the school building."
"You should be aware that any students found playing the game within the school or in the immediate vicinity of the building will receive disciplinary consequences" Hunter College High School Principal Tony Fisher said.
In 2015 the dangerous "Assassins" game lasted for two weeks in San Francisco, where anyone could be a target!
The SF Gate reported, the only "safe zones" for participants are the city block in which they work, all public transit, hospitals and government buildings and inside bars (but not restaurants). So if you're walking down the street and someone charges by with a super soaker, you know why.
WikiHow describes how to play "Assassin" using Super Soakers, socks, water balloons etc.
"Commonly used weapons are sharpies, spoons, nerf and water guns, toy swords, cardboard tubes, water balloons, socks, etc."
Let that sink in, people across the country are calling police to report kids with water balloons, super soakers etc.
Another example of government overreaction; school officials suspend a kindergartener for bringing a plastic bubble gun to school!
Please America, stop living in fear! That kid with a water balloon isn't a SUSPICIOUS PERSON!
