        This wasn’t a “prank.” It was specifically targeted at a school mass shooting survivor meant to terrorize him and his family. And possibly trying to get one of them killed.

        Strongly agree. This is a terroristic threat. It risks lives, not just those of the Hogg family, but also of the SWAT team members responding. These are highly charged, tense, volatile, and dangerous situations.

        Someone could have gotten killed by this BS. Its not funny, its not a prank, its a threat. And they should find out who did it and arrest them. End of story.

        They swatted a former FBI agent. The mind boggles.

        Whoever made the call should go to prison. In the past, similar calls have resulted in the killing of innocent people. #AttemptedMurderhttps://www.google.com/amp/s/www.theverge.com/platform/amp/2017/12/29/16830626/call-of-duty-swatting-prank-kansas-man-dead-police-shooting …

        I love how you authoritarian socialists are portraying him as some type of victim. He wanted the attention, well he got the attention he so desperately craved.

        How fucking clueless are law enforcement officials there that they didn’t consider & prepare for this obvious eventuality?
