it's probably going to be on national news. let's hope they mention blockland for publicity.
erm, i doubt it

erm, i doubt it

i have yet to see a series of swattings not being on the news all over. the media will eat this up considering the fact that the guy is 12 and can use it to push some kind of cause such as increased internet surveillance.

This statement doesn't make sense

1. It implies you know about every single instance of "swatting" to ever occur. Which you don't.
2. Based of my first point you would have no idea if the news has nationally broadcasted every instance of "swatting" because you don't know about every instance of it.
3. Minor events like this really don't make for that big of a news story. News agencies aren't government entities they don't really care about pushing legislation that doesn't directly benefit them. increased internet surveillance doesn't directly benefit them.

there's about 5 other points I could make to shut down this discussion but I think these will suffice

They will reenact the act on Blockland.

If anyone ever dies because of swatting kiss your internet freedoms behind.

Internet freedom is literally hanging by a thread and if someone dies because of a false swatting then that will loving cross the threshold of our freedom.

That's domestic terrorism. A kid went to jail for 10 years for that stuff. He was tried as an adult.
This was a hoax. Read into it a little more, tone

No it wasn't.

You go to jail for swatting, end of story.

Forgot to add, he apparently confessed to swatting multiple people when the police arrived at his house. I don't really know much more about what happened yet.

okay now all you have to do is just provide a source of these claims besides yourself

I don't have a source, this is coming in via a phone call from the guy who did the investigation at the police station. If you don't believe me it's really not my problem, I can't make somebody write an article, and I'm not desperate enough to go to them and ask for some kind of visual verification. I made this more to put the people here who were actually personally attacked by this guy at ease. If an article is made, then there you go. It happened, but you don't have to believe it.

Once again, if any more information is disclosed, I'll let you guys know.
