So she got swatted. Let's call it what it is. She got swatted because some assholes decided to call the cops on her. Those assholes' intentions are irrelevant. If you call the cops on someone in America, you should expect the police to show up with guns and possibly shoot that person. That's what they do; that's mostly all they do. As a society, we've decided that the police should show up in many situations where they are not needed, like medical emergencies, and have also decided to give them the right to murder with impunity and without consequences (see qualified immunity). This is what happens when you give a bunch of bullies who barely graduated high school guns and power: complete abuse of that power leading to hundreds or thousands of unnecessary deaths a year; not to mention all the non-lethal violence they also cause being essentially the largest gang in the nation. Americans need to learn that the police are not their friends and teach their children that. Police will not save you when there is a real threat. Police will stand back, hidden, away from danger just like they did in so many school shootings. They do not give a fuck about you, your kids, or your safety. They do not give a fuck about your life or anyone's life other than theirs (something they constantly talk about on every single cop show ever, in case you doubt this claim). I truly cannot think of a single positive thing police do in our society or any reason to call them, ever. Not one.
