I think the video is warning of a general police state rather than some kind of genocide. Not that individuals wouldn't be singled out and rounded up in such a scenario. Most likely political dissidents. This could easily happen in the USA in the event of a cataclysmic terrorist attack, such as one or more nuclear detonations in US cities. And sadly, those in power could easily take advantage of the situation to get rid of opponents.

I hope MTV's heart is in the right place.I do love the morons that think a handgun will protect them from the military, why not try knocking down a brick wall with snowballs? You'd be dead so fast. The idea that we can defend from that kind of fire power is propaganda used by organizations like the NRA.
I don't see how this is racial, to those who said things like "From how I interpreted the video it seems that black people are going to collect white people in an attempt to make us report to the cotton fields. It seems very racially/political motivated", there seems to be little sense in that statement. The phrase at the end wasn't literal, it is just saying to be aware and careful so we don't fall into the same hell Germany did.

I saw white soldiers/cops and white civilians, a few darker people in the mix, I saw no cotton fields

That.....was something pretty vague. Who are those people being rounded up and why are they being rounded up? What are the "warning signs" that shit like this is going to happen? If it was they should have put this ad out during the PATRIOT act era. MTV is just trying to capitalize on something and make its viewers think they are politically savvy.
"No dude, the government is going to round us up in the middle of the night for no reason!"
please...

The fact that we allow foreigners into our military makes me think that they wouldn't hesitate to follow those kinds of orders. Red-Blooded Americans would question it (I hope).

Just the holocaust reference at the end seemed a little too strong. It confused me, I watched looking specifically for white cops and I saw them. I just don't understand the commercial at all.
I'm just throwing out all the different ways some people might see this commercial. In no way do I think upcoming political actions are going to create a police state. I mean GWB created a police state after 9/11 and no one gave a shit. Military with fully automatic weapons over their shoulder and all that shit. Obama isn't even president yet and people are already saying hes going to push forth a police state.....this is fucked up.
Plus think.mtv.com seems like butthurt republicans.
