MTG swatted. Her two daughters swatted. Jack Posobiec parents swatted. Now Rick Scott, FL Senator was swatted last night. Fox News Legal Analyst Johnathan Turley gets swatted after talking about it on air. GA Lt Governor was swatted as well. MTG is saying on X many more Republican officials report incidents.
Of course, the FBI is too busy chasing grandmothers who were let into Congress to even bother investigating.
It isn't even 2024 yet, shit's already getting crazy.
Hell they tried swatting Styx just this week since he's back in the US.
Police are probably frustrated too being used like this and this is to more right leaning individuals so probably well armed unlike some random streamer. Just bump swatting up to an attempted murder charge, catch a few of these pricks and watch them stop using this tactic.
Surely the cops who pull the trigger instead of investigating if the call is bogus or not should just keep being put in a position to shoot first and never bother to ask at allr?
This is a bigger indictment on the ill-used military-police state than the low-I.Q., retards who are capable of easily abusing said system. In fact, why it's so easy to abuse seems to be a question no one bothers to ask.
If SWAT actually stopped one of those "mass murders" the Left are always complaining about using the exact same tactics they use to kill innocent people like the Wichita family man (ref: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/family-wichita-man-killed-police-swatting-incident-seeking-25-million-n1079836) then I would be all for it, but very conveniently SWAT only seems to be 100% effective at terroising innocent civilians thus far. Yet everyone puts the blame on the pranksters instead of the people pulling the trigger.
This has been bugging me for a while.
How, exactly, are these police departments setup such that annonymous calls with zero evidence can apparenty consistently get full SWAT teams to raid residential houses? Sometimes more than once.
Kinda insane, if you think about it...
But imagine it was a real situation that needed a SWAT team and all they sent was some info gathering cops... Your life could be in jeopardy if you're the victim.
I think instead of changing this aspect of the system, there needs to be greater emphasis on cracking down on fake calls. Attempted murder for fake SWATing people then start trying to track down the people making these calls.
Uvalde.
They have no issue pissing around and wasting time when their lives are actually in danger.
I have a feeling that the only way to deal with the matter will be to simply get rid of SWAT teams.
