Here is some backstory that may shed light on the situation. This looks to have been a SWATting by someone who didn't like the shelter director. Maybe even by a news reporter. I don't put anything past the "fourth estate".

This is only possible because our government at every level has gone feral and is instinctively violent at any perceived affront.

Hence the rise of SWATting. People know that the government will react out of proportion to the offence without bothering to substantiate the charges first.

We could go alinsky on them and flood tiplines with bogus tips. That might be the only way to get their attention. It is not as if any politicians are going to have the guts to help us out.
