A teenager “serial swatter” from California is believed to be responsible for hundreds of swatting incidents and bomb threats throughout the US according to a pretrial detention motion. Now he has been extradited to Florida to face charges for a swatting incident at a mosque, according to the Seminole County State Attorney’s Office.
Your comment doesn’t really answer my question. Do they actually send a SWAT team?
I don’t really care about how they are armed. Is it called swatting because a SWAT team is deployed, or is it because that happened once or sometimes but it’s not always the case?
Have you seen how cops arm themselves? That is just as much force as a swat team.
A swat team is a specially trained unit.
An uparmored tactical larp response.from.many officers is not that.

your baby gets flash banged in the face and someone tries to make this useless point
What point? I’m honestly trying to find out if it’s only considered swatting if an actual SWAT team is deployed or if that’s become the generic term.
There’s a term for this, called genericide. Like how Kleenex is used for all facial tissues or Qtips is used for all cotton swabs.
If all you want to do is find reasons to get offended and be combatant take your bullshit somewhere else.
I’m so sick of people like you on Lenny eroding actual conversation so you can mud sling and interpret everything in the worst possible light.
Sometimes a question is just a fucking question jackass!
Blocked for being the waste of space you are.
