So, are these cops mentally retarded or something?

Like, I get it the first time; they get a call and need to be safe rather than sorry.

But if they've investigated and found it was not a credible threat, then they get another call, with as much evidence as the first time, and they still SWAT him, what are we to make of their competence?

It gives them an excuse to use their toys and justify their budget.

All those meatheads enjoy getting psyched up to kill someone in the name of Government Monopoly on Violence.

They may also like just hanging out at Tim's place.

They may be obligated to send a car out to do a wellness check on a call.

I know in a lot of jurisdictions fire depts are required to do the same even on an acknowledged false alarm. They slow their response, put supporting units back in service, but the main responding company does have to arrive and look around a bit just to log it as done.

SDS200 with a roof antenna.

Excellent choice. I’ve been really happy with the SDS200. Wish I could use an outdoor antenna though.

Actually in US court is was determined the police are legally under no obligation to protect you: https://www.barneslawllp.com/blog/police-not-required-protect

So I would say they could settle for a phone call and tuning in BML (Beanie Man Live) if they really wanted to.

The cops know what's under that beanie. You can't trust a man who's that obsessive about hiding his true nature.

Once they put Tim on the no-swat list then the crazies will show up in person because no police response. In fact these SWATs could be test runs to see whether the police will respond.

What police should do is have Tim provide a list of their phone numbers and if they call it's an actual emergency.

We got Swatted again tonight but this was interesting

Police said the call was automated and traced back to a California resident

We have their name

But an automated system?

Probably a fake name

I figured they used a pseudonym, I was more trying to think of the possible culprits. And Rocco Castoro, Tim's absolutely psycho ex-employee who is currently being sued by Tim, would absolutely fit the bill.

Woah woah woah what's this all about? Been following Tim since 2017 but not super closely, so what's the info on this?

Here is the video of Viva Frei giving his breakdown of the lawsuit if you want the full.

The TLDR is that Tim hired Rocco and another girl named Emily Molli to run his spinoff news network Subverse/SCNR [Scanner] for him while he continued his normal things, with Emily being given a 5% stake in the company shares. Both of them were fired after attempting to dox Trump supporters at the Jan. 6 rally and not listening to Tim when he told them to stop. Emily then called an "Investor meeting" with Rocco, "voted" to remove Tim as CEO, and made herself CEO. She then sent the email to Tim, Tim said "That is literally not how this works", and Emily and Rocco just replyed "Lmao XD", moved to California, and took the equipment and money (a little over $1 Million), and have refused to return them to Tim.

Thanks! I'll give the vid a look at. I remember hearing something about Emily Molli. Something about her and some other guy (this Rocco, apparently) and something about a cat but I guess I'm not read up on my timcast L o R e. Pretty fucked the separation was over Jan 6 doxxing. I liked her work and she seemed pretty alright back when she was the other host on the podcast Tim was doing with his brother. Guess the mask slipped off.

Oh yeah, I remember when Tim had that guy on his show and literally everyone was like, "Dude, Tim, this guy's a nut."

Man, Tim is a bad judge of character for some people.

Not related to the show, but much to my surprise she did a livestream with Destiny earlier that afternoon. Surprisingly entertaining to watch. They were at a protest in DC and she was wearing a BLM shirt and he was wearing a MAGA hat.

I get the feeling that Tim keeps pornographic magazines on his coffee table.
