David Hogg Had A Peculiar Response To The Swatting Call Against His Family
Political Insider ^ | June 6, 2018 | Ann

Posted on 06/07/2018 6:37:39 AM PDT by PJ-Comix

“Swatting,” the act of making a false report to emergency services in an attempt to dispatch law enforcement to a targeted address, is illegal and dangerous; in December 2017, a man in Kansas was shot and killed in a swatting incident. So it’s rather peculiar that vehement anti-gun activist David Hogg all but brushed off the swatting call made against his family on Tuesday.

Hogg told ABC News, “The swatting incident was just a silly prank.”

...Really? Hogg calls for boycotts against any company that donates as much as a penny to gun manufacturers, but an illegal swatting call against his family is just a “silly prank”? That reaction just doesn’t make sense – and lots of people were confused by it.

The author must have wrote this fast because it makes no sense.

Maybe he meant ‘NRA’ instead of ‘gun manufacturers ‘

Well, he wasn’t there for the school shooting so it might be a pattern for him.

He is poo-pooing the call to stave off any investigation into who was behind it. He does not want the police to dig too deeply into it. I wonder why.

Who benefits from the publicity this garners, especially when his publicity was waning? Look hard police at who might be behind it.

Well, it's now FRIDAY and still NOTHING on the investigation. No new info from Broward Sheriff's office and the Ft. Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel has NO followup story. Weird.

It's as if the local community is uninterested in who the perp is who called in the Swatting.

Pretty much confirms that he did it himself.

When the Broward Sheriff’s Department somehow can’t trace a phone call and when the local and national media show a lack of interest in tracking down the perp, it is definitely something that makes you go hmmmmmmmm.....?

I wonder about the people in that entire area including the sheriff. Anywhere else, they would be accessing phone records and the like. They would be leaving no stone unturned. Here they are content to just let it slide.
