Lying or not, I wouldn't say making dumb forum posts is justification for being put in a situation where you could be seriously injured or killed.
I'm not saying that he should be swatted because of his act, I'm saying that some people out there like to randomly pick on people based on their act and go overboard with it.
They don't ask you if you're armed they loving scream at you to get down and put your hands behind your head and turn around lol
I'm pretty sure this is usually the first few things the SWAT does when breaking and entering into your house. OP said nothing about this.
OP - Has it been reported on news? Have you any pictures of the incident? What is your city?
Forums - Where is your Citation? Prove your theory on how it's fake. It's not fake if no supported evidence.
Okay, how are we able to prove this is fake when we only have text? We don't have any information on where he lives, where he goes to school/work/etc.
He can prove it's not fake if it was reported on the news because sometimes swatted events go onto the news. There's also other ways because someone's most likely going to report it
Okay, not like you can do anything, I live in Bothell.
We're trying to see if we can find any news, I got nothing other than a related situation that is a year ago around 4AM
