Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene reported that she was swatted for a second time in as many days on Wednesday night. This after having been swatted on Tuesday night, as well.

"The suicide chat line that was used could not get a location due to the person(s) using a VPN."

A suicide chat line? Only in today’s America.
“How can they make the same mistake twice? Especially a member of the House?”
Let’s take a 911 call as an example. The operator asks, “What is your emergency?” If you say, “Robbery in progress” they’ll transfer the call to the local dispatcher. If you say, “Fire,” they’ll transfer the call to the fire department. If you say, “I’m depressed,” it goes to the suicide hotline. Also, if you ask the operator his name he’ll respond with “I’m operator fifty-one,” or whatever his assigned number is. There are at least three shifts per day and depending on the locale there might be over a hundred employees. There’s lots of maneuver room for bad actors.
What if the idea is to call wolf many times, get the police to stop reacting and then send in a mob to attack her?
Someone still has to call 911. 911 calls are not content driven from social media. Someone monitoring social media or chat rooms had to have placed the call to 911.
Myabe that’s what the caller wants...actually attack her, but make it so that the police blow off any calls in advance and don’t come until too late.
Yes, they knew that's why they arrived at her house the way they did. Nothing inappropriate unless you're trying to dig for something, which you apparently are.
so make arrangements with Greene by phone or something else so you don’t have to invade her home every night ,D’oh
They need to post an officer by her house now. She is in danger.
The SWAT team is sent with the idea that whoever is the occupant of the reported address IS the threat. It is not to protect the individual being called about.
I have no information on how they SWATTED her the first or second time. I am not sure what you are trying to insinuate that I am trying to dig for. Has anyone SWATTED Pelosi, Schumer, Biden, Clinton(s)? I don't know of any. Have they ever SWATTED Trump or conservatives in congress or Trump associates? I don't know the numbers for all of those. I don't need to dig for evidence of a two-tiered justice/law enforcement system.
There’s that word again - “activists”.
They run the world.
Sadly we don’t have anywhere near the number as the other side.
And the few that we have are called “extremists”.
Got it.
If the police would cease responding the calls will stop.
Having said that, this psycho needs to be caught and made an example of and made as famous as humanly possible.
I would find that assumption most unwise if I were planning something nefarious.
The VPN companies will all roll over for their respective national governments and provide whatever logs and subscriber information that is requested. And most nations have cooperative arrangements for exchanging such requests.
If the government wants to find the perpetrator of a "swatting" call, they will. It just takes more work than they usually want to do.
Yes, but the government handing them a warrant is not what was meant by “cyber sleuthing”. The person I was responding to was talking about private actors, hackers, digging up the info on their own.
Point accepted.
Though I have been repeatedly amazed at what is possible for a small group of private individuals can accomplish with some very basic internet research.
Never mind the VPN traces or warrants or subpoenas. Put a couple of OCD people on blog monitor duty, cross-correlate the names and keywords with a few simple reference tools, and you too can make a list of 200 individuals who are plausible suspects. One of them is going to be "that guy". Watch long and carefully enough and you will catch him.
That technique depends on "leakage". People talk too much. And they like to brag about their accomplishments. That sort of thing always gets around faster and to more places than anyone guesses. It can be traced back to the source.
It has been done many times before.
You would need a Vlad the Impaler or Hannibal Lecter Memphis scene to exert any type of impact, i.e., "oh s**t, we've been fabricating imaginary monsters, now we have a real one on our hands.".
“If the police would cease responding”
How can the police be absolutely sure there’s not a killer out there setting up a situation where if someone calls 911 for that address the police won’t come? How would it look if the police did not respond and the next day MTG and her family are found murdered in their home? The police are in a catch 22, but they have to respond.
My VPN doesn’t log or keep records. There’s nothing to acquire. Probably the same thing here.
