This is so disturbing on many levels and is indicative of the whole breakdown of our society, and the loss of individual freedom and personal safety. Imagine you are at home, and a swat team shows up, and you answer the door, knowing you have no reason to see them. Make a false move and cops who expect a situation respond in the manner trained, and boof, dead. Now, look at the moron who did it, hiding behind technical walls, anonymity, and refusing any responsibility, simply because he thinks he can get away with it. Not only that, but he has bragged on various bomb threats and other "swatting" he has done. This is when I toss my personal position of not imposing my morals on others out the airlock, and want this guy found, and not tried, but swatted himself, with a bullet. The immaturity of society is so rampant, the lack of any responsibility for anything, we see it in politics, where lie till you die is the standard, to government that imposes its will on you, taxes you to death for whatever they want, and the looter mentality of "I want what I want, and I will take it". It is prevalent in so many places and institutions. Sad.

    Clinton and his AG Janet Reno started this latest wave of unethical conduct when they took full responsibility (what a cruel joke on the dead) for the murder of 100 innocent people at Waco. FBI agents were promoted instead of punished and set a standard for the future.
    Of course such things happened before in these united states, e.g., the Bonus Army slaughter by McArthur and Patton who were rewarded, not punished.

    That disgusting use of force eventually helped elect an even worse statist, FDR, as president.
    The Senate was also at fault for preventing an early payment to the Bonus Army. A free market solution (selling the rights to guaranteed government future payments on the open market) would have been easy, but the swamp dwellers of the Dark Center ignored the possibility.

    The whole concept of SWAT teams is inherently dangerous. The cases where a homeowner should be met with a military style assault by law enforcement are very few and far between.

    But if you have a SWAT team then you start calling them out for everything -- and they get to play war games.
