      If a police department gets tricked into Swatting an innocent party due to a fraudulent call to 911, the entire department should be disbanded and replaced with officers who do due diligence before busting people’s doors down.

      But what if it’s actually serious?

        Yep. If the department ignores a call, believing it’s a hoax, & it turns out not be?

        Someone’s gonna shit the bed if that goes down.
