It would be a lot funnier if it made sense.

[spoiler]About 8 cops pull over a motorist and, guns drawn, order him out of his vehicle, whereupon they all yell at him, “Where’s the little girl? You know what we’re talking about! Where’s the little girl?”

He protests that he doesn’t know, finally breaking down into tears. At this, a grim-faced cop steps forward and taps him on the chest: “_There’s_ the little girl!” The cops all laugh.

Then they get in their cruisers and speed away, firing their guns in the air like gangstas.[/spoiler]

They do this (I think) because he’s driving a Prius Hybrid - a little girl’s car as opposed to the “Real American” (Bo Yah) I dunno what I guess.

Took me a while, but once I got the joke I giggled.

I just wonder  
a) Who made it  
b) Why  
c) Where the call to action is (assuming it is an ad and not just someone with too much money making a spoof)

Crawling out of the lurker zone for this one, but did anyone actually _find_ the little girl in the video? She’s in there.

She’s at 1:09, behind the light pole.

It would be funnier if it was funny.

Also, the production is good enough that you know it’s not real.

Plus, not being funny.

I’m against “bullies with power” victimizing the helpless but I found it funny. Probably in a similar way that I find running someone over with my car in Grand Theft Auto funny while simultaneously being against murder in real life. Funny how that works. God damn me to hell anyway, I guess.

What the… it’s not real. None of that really happened. They didn’t actually scare that man to death like that.

I’m offended by your use of “scare that man to death,” my grandpa was literally scared to death five years ago.

I know, but I did once have a cop bully me. It’s not in the least pleasant.

Of course it isn’t. If it were, the joke wouldn’t work. It was actually \*funnier \*to me because I have been in situations where cops were bullies.

Calm down. It’s okay now. You made it. They never found her.

Apparently I have issues (or a whole subscription) on this subject. Thanks for the feedback everyone.
