- scythe 8y agoKirtaner, the owner of 420chan, was infamously swatted by g0shawk some years ago. He lives in Canada (and g0shawk is in Australia).
- oh_sigh 8y agoHostages are only taken by crazy people in America? I doubt that.
- Hamuko 8y agoHe's saying that swatting only happens in America. Which is pretty much the case.
- oh_sigh 8y agoDo other countries even have SWAT teams?
- dragonwriter 8y agoOther countries usually have police tactical response teams and/or separate paramilitary police forces to which high threat situations are escalated. The details, of course, differ considerably from country to country.
- ben-schaaf 8y agoOf course not. It's just in other first world countries a regular police officer shows up first to assess any credible threat before further action is taken for a single anonymous call.
