Georgia Politician Fights Terrorism by Mooning Sacha Baron Cohen
The costumed comedian finds that it's not that hard to dupe politicians with irrational fears.

Footage from the second episode of Sacha Baron Cohen's Showtime series, Who Is America?, shows just how much some officials will do to be perceived as tough on terror.
Cohen, posing as an Israeli anti-terror expert, approached an unsuspecting state Rep. Jason Spencer (R-Woodbine) to take part in an anti-terrorism video.
complete article at http://reason.com/blog/2018/07/23/ge...ha-baron-cohenCohen convinces him that a way to successfully identify a terrorist under a burqa is to use a camera attached to a selfie stick to peer under her garments. Spencer tries to recreate the lesson while posing as a stereotypical Chinese tourist, which he does by shouting things like "dragon chopstick" and "sushi."
The training escalates when Cohen informed Spencer that a successful tactic to avoid an ISIS kidnapping is to scream the n-word. Spencer gamely screams it repeatedly during a kidnapping simulation. At another point, Cohen tells Spencer that ISIS members are afraid of being perceived as homosexual. Spencer is then persuaded to pull down his pants and run at Cohen his buttocks out while shouting "America!" and "USA!"

One of the readers in the Reason article's comments section posted this observation I find interesting:

If you ever watch Borat, it unintentionally shows him to be an asshole and most Americans to be decent people. Nearly every scene consists of some dumfounded American going out of their way to be nice to him as he acts like a bigger and bigger asshole trying to provoke them. Borat ends up being a love letter to the reasonableness and painful politeness of ordinary Americans. I don't think Cohen intended it to be that way.

And that dipwad is a representative from my state...
ETA: Is it possible, just maaaaaaybe, this guy is highlighting morons in positions of power who don’t belong in an effort to help “drain the swamp”? Or at the very least remove incompetent folks from their positions?
Naive hope, I know.

Talk about cognitive dissonance. Being nice by running at someone with no pants and yelling America. Not my idea of being nice. Not that there is anything wrong with that recreationally. I've heard folks blaming Cohen.Nearly every scene consists of some dumfounded American going out of their way to be nice to him
If your instructor at your tactical class and says to you that the best way to distract an attacker is to take out your tallywacker and wave it - gonna do it to be nice?
As soon as this guy ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iY1mAlFjJTw ) shows up in one of Cohen's video's maybe I'll believe it. Until then, I'll just assume it is another effort by left-leaning Hollywood to use their platform to make conservatives look bad.
I think that quote was specifically referencing the movie Borat, not this show.

^^^I read elsewhere, (while reading the news this morning), that the pol was also reported to have used the "N" word. I did not bother reading the article so I cannot comment on it further. I can't believe what a bunch of loser miscreants some of these idiots are. (Okay, maybe I can believe it.)
There's nothing civil about this war.
Hey if you want to screw up someone’s OODA loop that might just do the trick. Wear Viking helmet for added effect.
