do you really think that passing a law like this is going to stop all the idiots from Swatting people???
All of them? No. It will stop SOME of them though.
Send armed police into enough potential hostage situations and sooner or later someone innocent will be carrying what could be mistaken for a firearm pointed at an officer. What is it you think happens next?
The police are not paid to get shot, and there is no moral or legal requirement for them to do so before firing in good faith - they have families they'd like to live to see too. How many police is it you think wake up WANTING to shoot someone? FFS.
Morons playing Swat should expect lengthy jail time until such time as other morons stop doing it.
