Your comment is a bit off topic IMO. Swatting can occur regardless of how "militarized" a police force actually is.

- elzbardico 2y agoCan it? Do you really think that dressing in military special ops tactical clothing, with advanced and powerful weaponry, balaclavas, helmets and responding to a call in a armoured vehicle doesn't create any weird expectations on the mind of police officer of how they should behave in a call?
- magnetowasright 2y agoDoes playing dress up make any difference to how much murdering they do? I don't think that outcomes would be any different if they were sent in in their regular uniforms with their regular weaponry.
- smsm42 2y agoThe whole point of swatting is to cause massive over-reaction by the police endangering victim's life. If it would just cause a regular visit by a cop nobody would do it - what would be the point of it, waste 5 minutes of person's time? The whole premise relies on the massive militarized response.
