insurrectionists fought and gained our freedom from England. Today’s socalled “liberals” would be the tories of yesterday who would rat everyone out to the British soldiers. Shameful.
Misprision of a felony?
. That will stop "swatting" in its tracks.
Last time I checked, SWATTING was slightly ILLEGAL..........................
In most jurisdictions, what this clowns are proposing could make them an accessory to murder.
In fact, if they were to SWAT someone, and the SWATted person were to take a life in self-defense, the victim might never see a day in jail while they could go in for life.
This means ‘OPEN SEASON ON DOGS!!!’
Those that call in false emergencies that result in the victims getting injured should be executed. There should be a death penalty for those that call the police with these complaints and accusations. Liberals won’t like this but it would stop it in its tracks.
[[Could that lead to someone being charged with a crime. Such as the caller? ]]
No no- it’s only a crime IF someone talks icky about muslims, Loretta lynch said so
It is illegal and the group should be charged. Anyone who is a victim of this should sue them.
I’m thinking multi-million dollar lawsuits if there are injuries or deaths.
Much of this over-reaction can be laid at the feet of “polezei locus”.
In Michigan, open carry is legal. Not long ago, my neighbor had a visitor from Indiana with a belt-holstered Glock-9.
Me, (not being reactionary), wondered whether the visitor needed to identify to the local constabulary, so I called the DPS. DPS told me that it is considered a professional courtesy to do so.
Next thing I know, the local DPS showed up next door, tackled the guy and just summarily “abused” him (they used GPS locationing from my house phone).
Although I felt somewhat responsible, I did not expect such an over-reaction.
Maybe next time, I’ll just go ask the gun-owner about his weapon and leave DPS out of it..
Unfortunately, the cops like the opportunity to check someone out. Even if the gun situation is legal, they may find something else to cite them for.
Police dispatch already treats calls about someone carrying a gun as a legitimate complaint, even if the caller doesn’t indicate any illegal activity like brandishing AND even if it’s an open carry state.
Note that these cowards don’t confront anyone on their own.
What can happen to the innocent party. He mistakes the police intrusion for a criminal intrusion, and exercises his right to self defense, and the police exercise their right to their self defense.
The people who actually do this “swatting” need to be put in jail for the rest of their lives, and their property sued out from under them.
I would hope SWATing would be punished as harshly as flying an unregistered toy drone.
The nature of the controversy is illustrated by just how far these people are willing to go - this action is (1) illegal, and (2) likely to get somebody killed. This is pure class warfare in a literal sense, and a death is regarded as a positive outcome so long as nobody inciting it gets caught. It isn’t about the guns, it’s about the gun owners, who are considered evil people deserving of death, and the candid activists will admit it. These are not non-violent people.
If the swatting results in death of the target, prosecute the swatter for first degreee murder. It is a premeditated act with the intent of directing deadly force at the victim. Death penalty for the swatter. Apply on an expedited schedule.
