Ok, other than the obvious answer of "alien mutant killer ninja spider-cricket come to wipe out humanity", can anyone tell me what this creature is?

 

[AtlPhilip]

Looks like 6 legs, so non-arachnid

 

[Nemo]

Antennae certainly appear firm and jointed. Probably no cricket DNA in it.

Ok...so it only has six legs...got it

Antennae are firm and jointed...got it

So basically, what you're telling me is that it IS in fact an alien mutated killer spider-cricket. Got it. Thanks.

Y'all think it's a bug, but it looks like an escaped convict from an alien prison ship.

Head, thorax, abdomen.
Note the markings.

I'm going with the Ambassador from Altair -9.

Trying offering it a succulent piece of leaf and see what it does.

Nuke it from orbit, it's the only way to be sure.

Altair-9 continues its internal trade disputes. The "War With The Locusts" never ends.

The color is different, but everything else is the same....look at the head and butt.

It looks just like this one, which they are calling an assassin bug nymph:

Yea...if you scroll down in the link i put up it says the younger ones (nymphs) have curved parts.

An assassin none the less.

No, its probably alien, probably mutated and certainly not spider-cricket. More likely some genetically modified small creature from outer space who crawls in peoples ears and takes over their brains to let them be controlled by the hive mind.

They can easily kill you on command by destroying your brain so the assassin assessment above is fair and reasonable.

My best assessment overall. I could be wrong and this time I probably am.

Filmed here in Ga, and looks just like your bug.

Oh great, a killer alien bug that really likes sex.
