Louisiana senator's 'call a crackhead' video becomes instant TikTok meme

A political ad by Louisiana senator John Kennedy has inspired a wave of TikTok videos, after he told people who hate the police to 'call a crackhead' instead.

Since then, creators have been showing off what could happen if you actually did call a 'crackhead' to help you in an emergency.
