GP: Boston’s Democrat Mayor Michelle Wu was swatted on Christmas Day in what turned out to be a nationwide swatting epidemic over the holiday weekend that largely targeted Republicans and conservative activists, including Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green (R-GA), Rep. Brandon Williams (R-NY), Jack Posobiec and “Catturd”. A Democrat former state senator in Nebraska was also swatted.
Three Ohio Republican elected officials were swatted on Tuesday: Attorney General Dave Yost, state Rep. Kevin Miller, and state Senator Andrew Brenner.
In Georgia, in addition to Greene, three Republican state senators, John Albers, Clint Dixon, and Kay Kirkpatrick, were swatted over on Monday and Tuesday. No one was reported injured in any of the incidents, which seek to provoke a deadly police response with hoax phone calls falsely claiming heinous crimes are taking place, usually at the target’s residence. more here
SNIP: Two of Catturd’s followers were swatted as well.
“… confirming the prank.” PRANK! Swatting can get somebody dead very effectively. Those swatters need to be hunted down and shot in the face.

Now that the liberal mayor of Boston was swatted, something will be done about it.
There must be some way of confirming these calls. Those found responsible must be sentenced to twenty years.
Gee Wally, surely there is a way to track the electronic footprint of spoofed calling.
Sure there is Beave… now that a democRAT’s been swatted!
When you think about it, this is Police harassment as well!
They can track down hundreds of J6ers phones without breaking a sweat, but those darned swatters are always in the wind. Weird.
Seems irresponsible to take deadly action without confirmation.
What am I missing here regarding police doing this on such flimsy information?
Seems a law should be passed to punish police for swatting someone without solid evidence of need and for the punishment of the fake caller.
Would be great justice for them to spend 10 years behind bars for this. Both the police captain and the caller.
Bet they’d think twice if their neck was on the line.
Wu was definitely swatted with the ugly stick.
Was Wu’s swat a coloreds-only swat?
Wu said her family is used to it by now?
Bull
SWAT needs an unlisted number.
