perhaps not explicitly from swatting, but police raids on bad or intentionally false information

hitting the wrong house

good job there guys

Swat killed a baby once by accidentally throwing a flash bang into a crib.

christ

I know theyve killed dogs

and false targets

in fact, there is at least one case of a police officer getting being shot and killed and the guy they were raiding getting off because they court was like "...so, you had bad intel, hit a house, and this guy thought you were attacking him.... MAYBE IT WAS BECAUSE YOU WERE ATTACKING HIM FOR NO REASON, HMMMMMM?"

They kill dogs on purpose though

yeah

perhaps the cop wasn't killed. but was at least shot

i know

lifehack against wrongful swatting:

Place landmines in your yard

thats illegal

like, actually illegal, in most states

I wanna know what percentage of swat team strikes are from intentonally false intel nowadays

booby-traps with intent to harm are very much not legal.

what about stand your ground laws? 😮 surely i'm defending my property!

Yeah. Otherwise I’d have them😂

are booby-traps with intent to disable illegal?

if its a wrongful swatting

Your intention isn't to harm 😛

is disabling someone not harming them?

its arguable

i mean, a net gun might be okay

Like a net?

by that logic, shooting in self defense is harming someone too

Or a tazer?

@Dr.Wol its not a booby-trap

Does the kid from home alone need to go to jail?

what if its a rigged gun? 😛

tripwired

that is not you shooting in defense

fucking fallout ptsd

pressure plate shotguns <a:POGGERING:443009728746881026>

i think the point is that there needs to be a person there to make a judgement call and also be accountable.

its defense by proxy! 😦

so wait,

an automated defense system is illegal in america?

most likely

shame

gun camera turrets are sick af

welp there goes my plans for home ownership 😦
