I dunno why I wanted to know but I did so I googled it.

I'm rather proud of being totally out of sync with modernity but I got kinky today.

Fun stuff.

Sort of reminds me of ordering Domino's pizza to the sh*thead's house in the neighborhood, me and my buddy laughing our asses off looking thru our bedroom window shutters.

In the mind of a leftist, ‘swatting’ is the perfect tool.

To them, cops are all hair-trigger having murderers, so if one them shoots a right wing political figure it’s a win-win, right? The annoying person you called the raid in on a gone and the police are further discredited.

When the OG left wing operatives learned the fine arts of political terrorism from their foreign…advisors…they learned very well. And passed on what they learned to today’s generation.

If we take umbrage to it take my suggestion.

Illegals should get information on how the beautiful young single unarmed women in Whole Foods and yoga parking lots from Austin to Bethesda to Seattle are just walking around, and how all those EV's contain people with lots of money and no guns.

That would be the New Improved Swatting.

I wonder if that would make Liberals even more anti-immigrant than they already are these days.

Umm, you do realize that Boebert and Greene called each other "whores" on the House floor. There's more evidence to say it's republicans doing the swatting, not 'leftists.'

Most people mature as they age; you seem to have only gotten worse.

I recently saw a bumper sticker on a Prius:
"I save gas so I can buy more guns"

We gotta get past those stereotypes!

Swatting a left wing thing. They invented it and their online masses snicker about it. None of them would shed any tears over someone they hate getting shot by police.

https://archives.fbi.gov/archives/news/stories/200...

This quote sums it up
Why did they do it? Said Kevin Kolbye, Assistant Special Agent in Charge of our Dallas office: “Individuals did it for the bragging rights and ego, versus any monetary gain.” Basically, they did it because they could.

Because they could.

Seems to happen in Georgia a lot.

This happens to Republicans. A lot.
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/rick-scott...

Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) was among the latest swath of politicians to be "swatted" this week after two House Republicans and Boston Mayor Michelle Wu were victims of false emergency calls on Christmas.

Yes, the odd democrat is in there. But it's not really close. MTG must be the record holder.

Lt. Gov. Burt Jones (R-GA) said his home was swatted Wednesday night, and a bomb threat was called to his office on Thursday. Jones vowed in a post on X that he "will not be intimidated by those attempting to silence me" and that "we will put an end to this madness."

and he's right. It's an intimidation tactic to show that they know where you live.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), who was the victim of a swatting incident on Christmas, said both of her daughters' homes were swatted and vowed that whoever is putting in the false calls will be "caught and it won’t be funny to you anymore."

Notice they're going after her family now, which is basically mafia- or terrorism-like behavior.

Sounding like an Incel.

I've learned there is nothing of value coming from EchotaSheeple and I never look at his posts, but every once in a while someone else quotes him in their post. Why bother?

ges.....

Why so anti immigrant?

Why don't you want immigrants to do yoga or eat organic?

Oh I get it, they can pick your vegetables just not eat them.

Seriously, you need Trump to teach you tolerance ......

I won't let you dodge :)

Jonathan Turley just wrote a piece criticizing swatting…

…and then he himself was promptly swatted.

This is just who they are and what they do.

Anti Muslim slurs on their homes.

And promptly publicized in a not too obvious way.


Now - that -- - would be swatting.

Hmmmmmm

More projection from Dope: "This is just who they are and what they do."

Swatting sucks. Ask any celebrity who has been subjected to the stunt. Yet swattting is many degrees below the level of attacks perpetrated by groups of the conservative/rightwing/MAGA/Xtian persuasions.

Whether it's bombing clinics, doxxing people they don't like, terrorizing customers, shooting up churches, disrupting public meetings, threatening government people, public figures, or threatening kidnapping, conservative/rightwing/MAGA/Xtian groups are so well represented the DoJ deems the extremists among them to be a leading source of terrorism in the USA.
_______________________________________________________
"Maine Secretary of State says home ‘swatted’ after Trump removed from ballot"

"14 right wing extremists were charged, nine were convicted in connection with the plot to kidnap Gov. Gretchen Whitmer...... Their motive was anger over the Democrat’s Covid-19 restrictions and their plan has become a symbol of rising far-right violence and the threat it represents to US democracy."

The real tragedy is the right-wing support for an orange spray tanned rapist who encourages this kind of anti-democratic bullshit.
