Ricks definition of a “Swatting” isn’t getting enough attention.

[TheDarkFezRises]

Exactly. He was being a cunt and someone called the cops.

We've all seen the hellhole neighborhood he lives in. Imagine how much of an annoyance he would have to be for people to call the cops on him instead of the diverse dealers, junkies, and other delinquents.

As a cop, there's three calls that are the highest risk...in that they can go from zero to apeshit in .5 seconds:

1. Traffic stops
2. Domestic disturbances
3. Bar fights

Especially after dark, you're damned right we have a hand near the gun when approaching.

The best damned supervisor I had was killed responding to a domestic beef last year. Some meth monkey decided to start firing indiscriminately. Commander was just weeks away from retirement to boot.

That was also shortly after 1pm, nowhere near the 10-1130pm Rick is claiming.

When he saw the ad, I'm willing to bet he called the cops himself to report it. There were no cops at his house after dark.

I got swatted one time going 70 in a 55

I’ve swatted thousands of people playing basketball. Being 6’1 helps.
