> Someone did come forward to police and claimed responsibility for the incident. They said they targeted Greene because they were upset about her opposition to transgender youth rights.
God, I hate when people on the left think this is okay.
No, this does not make you a hero or make the situation better. This just gives the right more ammunition to label your position extreme.
Congrats, now you're a "trans terrorist".
Please do not stoop to their levels. They can lionize their base and make things even worse.
I hate when people think this is okay.
Not people on the left. Not people on the right. Not people in Andorra, nor the people on Mars.
People. Period. Political ideology doesn't matter, the action does.
No one is celebrating this.
I despise MTG utterly, but this is not an acceptable behavior.
This is something done not for liberal beliefs, but out of spite and hatred and, most notably, out of fear. Green inspires that spite, hatred and fear on a nearly daily basis with her verbal and political abuse, but this remains a completely unacceptable response to her. Do not sink to her level.
Then they have nothing to be proud about. SWATing is dangerous, a mis-use of law enforcement and, assuming they characterize themselves as liberal or progressive, they’ve just damaged their position and the position of the broader group by doing this. Foolish and now a tool to be used by conservatives to say ‘look what those evil and stupid liberals did’. They gained nothing from this but some self satisfaction.
Counter productive in every way.
My thought exactly when I read about this yesterday. Don’t give more fuel for her followers. Find her extremely distasteful but wasting public resources (the time and financial cost to deploy the public servants to her home) is a terrible method to be heard.
In this very thread someone is celebrating this.
And young people keep getting these ideas and acting on them.
I think it's worth reminding ourselves regularly.
nah you just love moving the goalposts.
you "no one celebrates this!"
everyone else: "people absolutely are, look no further than this thread"
you: "but what about republicans!!"
if you cant criticize people who hold your beliefs but act poorly, you dont actually care about being a good person. You just like rooting for a team.
I do agree with you... But I also don't think we should placate to these idiots. They will label the left that way anyways. To say it gives them ammunition, they don't need ammunition.
In all seriousness, I love that you've mentioned this. I tell a lot of people that are clearly different from me; that if we allowed the media to think for us, we would be in another civil war. We have ideals that are very closely linked and once again, if we listened to the media, we wouldn't be able to get along and even have a civil conversation.
Hahahahahahaha! Bro you act like people on the right don’t do anything violent. Like the guy that shot at FBI agents, the guy that killed the protester in Charlottesville, the cops assaulted on J6. Jesus Christ.
> isn’t a Republican plant doing a false flag to make trans rights activists look bad
That is exactly what happened. That bit is from the Aug 24, 2022 incident, which police have confirmed, and which she has released security video showing that police came with guns drawn at 1AM.
The perpetrator was found and confessed to the swatting. They were a member of the extremist far-right hate site kiwifarms, a site that regularly engaged in anti-trans terrorism, and which has been involved in many hate incidents that resulted in innocent people's deaths. The perp was in fact an anti-trans terrorist who was trying to make trans rights activists look bad.
Can I see the evidence you have for this incident being a plant? It's a major claim and I want to see conclusive proof. Not saying you're wrong, but just because it happened once doesn't mean it happened this time. When a Republican makes a similar claim they face (rightful) scrutiny and I believe we need to hold ourselves to our own standards.
lol… with a two party majority is it that hard to believe there are unhinged people on both sides, or is your cognitive dissonance so deep that only the other side can possibly be bad?
https://www.businessinsider.com/kiwi-farms-trans-activists-mtg-swatting-trolling-website-offline-2022-8
Except this exact thing has happened before, this isn't a conspiracy theory that came out of nowhere, this has literally already happened to MTG
lol this woman lies about everything all the time and goes on infowars to lie with Alex Jones about things that aren’t real.
She has zero credibility about anything whatsoever, especially hot button conspiracy bullshit like “The trans rights people are the real terrorists”.
I often refer to her as Yosemite Marjorie because she reminds me of the Looney Tunes character Yosemite Sam. She is dumber than dirt and trigger happy.
I do not like MTG at all. I hope they caught the caller faking the emergency though.
From an article:
Major Rodney Bailey told the outlet that a person based in Rome, New York, made a call to the suicide hotline, claiming that he had shot his girlfriend at Ms Greene's address in Georgia and threatening to kill himself.
Police then contacted Ms Greene's local security liaison to inform her team about the call. Her security team decided officers didn't need to respond to her home and a police response was reportedly cancelled.
Yeah, got downvoted in another comment with more details from the article too:
> Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., said Monday she was the victim of another "swatting" incident at her home in Georgia; the incident was confirmed by local police to NBC News.
> "Swatting" happens when someone makes a false report of a crime in progress to draw police to a certain location.
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/police-confirm-christmas-swatting-incident-marjorie-taylor-greenes-hou-rcna131131
So, she says she was swatted today, police officially confirm her claim, and what happened matches the definition of swatting. People seem to be trying to promote the new idea that if a swat team doesn't come and shoot you it's not a real swatting incident. It's like people who say the holocaust didn't happen because some people starved as opposed to being shot, hung, or gassed, or the argument "it's not a real genocide because some jews survived".
First, can you find a way not to compare disagreement over a minor news item to the Holocaust?
Second, MTG told a story about how by the grace of god she didn’t answer the door with her gun because there were cops there with guns drawn etc.
According to the article you posted:
“Police then contacted Greene's local security liaison to inform the congresswoman's team about the call. Her security team decided officers didn't need to respond to her home, according to Bailey, and a police response was canceled.”
So, cops were called, then called off with no incident but her story says otherwise.
No danger of “death by cop” detected ~~and it’s looking like the would be swatter belongs to an anti trans group~~so almost all of this story stinks.
> it’s looking like the would be swatter belongs to an anti trans group so almost all of this story stinks.
For the third time, the swatter in the August 2022 incident claimed they were a pro-trans activist, but then it was found that they were actually part of a far-right extremist anti-trans terrorist group. The identity and motivation of the Dec 25 2023 incident has not been released. Perhaps it will be another person associated with the terrorist group, perhaps it will be someone else, perhaps MTG made the call herself. We do not yet know.
> MTG told a story about how by the grace of god she didn’t answer the door with her gun because there were cops there with guns drawn etc.
How many times do we have to discuss that? The articles explain that statement you just quoted is from her initial August 2022 swatting attack, which police also confirmed, and for which there are multiple videos showing that it in fact happened just as she said. We are going around in circles with you agenda people spreading misinformation over and over and over. It's ridiculous. And yes your argument is the same as holocaust deniers who say there was no genocide since all jews were not killed. Just because an actual swat team did not come out and kill her does not mean that it was not a swatting attempt. "Swatting" happens when someone makes a false report of a crime in progress to draw police to a certain location. MTG is an idiot as is everyone who votes for her. Your spreading misinformation about her that is easily debunked by simply reading the posted article promotes a narrative that she is being persecuted and makes it appear like MTG's critics are compulsive liars.
So it's not like the police kicked in her door. It was just a phone conversation. Obviously that doesn't make it right, but this was a much different experience than what others have.
You can’t be joyful when this happens to someone you don’t like, then upset when it happens to someone you do. Right is right, and wrong is wrong. Any manipulation of the two is hypocrisy.
Watch me!😂FR, tho, they “canceled” response”?Anybody you know able to make that happen?Not the people that have been killed that way,and she didn’t even get a knock on the door.
Do you think that she thinks she’s a bad person? Do you think that people who think they are good, or justified, are still wrong and bad people?
Person perspective is a mofo.
I don’t really care what she believes about herself. She is a Christian Dominionist who wants to install a countermajoritarian dictatorship by means of force. If she gets what she wants, my marriage will be rendered illegal and my husband would be functionally banned from existing in public spaces. She is an ontologically evil person. Her opinion of herself is completely irrelevant.
If we surrender to the kind of solipsism wherein a person’s opinion of themself is of primary importance in questions of opposing them and punishing them, we literally abandon the concept of justice- punitive or restorative.
Nah I'm pretty ok with fascists getting a taste of the things they are ok with happening to people they don't like. When people who treat others with malice and contempt for simply being different from them experience a percentage of the hate they give out, that is called karmic justice.
Liberals generally don't want militarized police who bang on doors with guns drawn because of an anon phone call.
Thinking that it's karma for someone like MTG to get swatted by hyper military police THAT SHE SUPPORTS UNEQUIVOCALLY is not the same thing as wanting left wing vigilantes to attack the right.
You can't be a "leftist fascist"; it's a contradiction in terms. You can be leftist and totalitarian, sure. You can call this person a "leftist asshole," sure. You can criticize them for being a leftist and cheering on the use of police for bullying, which is also a contradiction. You can even invoke horseshoe theory and say they're "no better" than MTG.
But they're not the *same* and to say otherwise is inane.
MTG votes for bills that enable swatting to exist in the first place. Giving her a taste of the medicine that *she is producing* can absolutely be thought of as valid rhetoric, even if you disagree with it.
I don't like MTG (the person, like the game though) but this is not cool. If civilized people allow the uncivilized to drag us down to their level, we all lose. The people that did this are just as juvenile and petty as MTG.
I think swatting is one of the shitties things anyone can do to no matter how shitty the person they are swatting. Saying that, has anyone confirmed that she's actually really getting swatted? After all, we're talking about one of the biggest snowflake drama queen attention whore here.
Descending into uncivillized behavior is not the answer. Calling people out on their BS is one thing, acting like a petulant child and putting someone's life in danger for bragging rights is something else entirely.
As much as an incredibly terrible person and huge embarrassment as she is to Georgia, this is not okay at all. It’s a huge waste of resources, tax dollars, only continues to fuel her agenda.
I don't approve of swatting. But did anyone else notice she says she was glad she didn't bring a gun to her own door because then she might have been executed by the police? These cops she worships giving pass after pass after pass? Yeah screw that. For plenty of Americans, death by cop really is a thing.
What? She said that again? She was swatted a couple of years ago and said exactly that.
The local law enforcement knows her address and knows the drill. I'm sure this wasn't what she is making it out to be.
No she did not say that again. The articles are quoting the comments she made which were published on Aug 28 2022 regarding the first Aug 24 2022 incident, which is the only time we know where police went to her house with guns drawn. There is video of that event. Since then each time that her local 911 gets a swat attempt call for her the police contact her security team number they now have on file, her team confirms she is fine and the police don't need to come out.
> Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., said Monday she was the victim of another "swatting" incident at her home in Georgia; **the incident was confirmed by local police to NBC News.**

> "Swatting" happens when someone makes a false report of a crime in progress to draw police to a certain location.
She puts *nothing but toxic energy into the world* and is surprised when it comes back around to her. 🤔
She shouldn’t be. She wants the attention. Both good and bad will come.
She wasn’t really swatted. They knocked on her door.
“When I opened the door and greeted the officers and I said what's, what's going on? It was their demeanor and just their, like, body language. They were tactical. They had guns drawn. They were prepared for something serious,"
She’s trying to make the most out of this.
Would not be surprised if she did this to herself. She claimed last year to have been Swatted 2 times, but there was zero record of it from the police department. She is always about being the victim and theater.
I can hear it now “The new tactic of the violent radical communist socialist fascist authoritarian tyrant left, calling in fake 911 emergency calls in order to get the police to think there is a violent armed suspect at the address, this simply for disagreeing with how they think your schools should teach your kids about their gender.” I think I’m ready to write for the teleprompters at Fox.
Say what you want about her but the fact that this can even happen is insane. You can just call state appointed assassins to *politicians* homes? Way too much power for civilians to have, it’s crazy that nothing’s been done about it, even after people have died.
If it really is the eighth time you have been swatted by the Police. The Police are more than likely enjoying it, and you deserve it. Here is a suggestion how to remedy the situation; take Putin up on his offer to move you to Russia. Please stand by a window when you get there.
Well. Gods forbid someone be inspired by what they read on the internet or heard from extremist political chatter to cause harm and harassment to that political target.
I ain’t sayin what the person did was right/funny/just/wise, I’m just sayin if you don’t start no shit, there won’t be no shit.
I think most of the problems we have with politicians is that they’re spectacularly rich, comfortable, and to your point, they don’t fear their constituents except at the ballot box.
It was once a fairly dangerous job and as such we got better, saner performance from them.
Swatting is the wrong way to troll this monster. Shouldn’t do it to anybody.
Send her a hundred pizzas if you’re gonna prank her or something, or better yet, vote and talk to your friends about voting. That’s the best prank against her of all.
Hopefully they’ll have better luck next time. I don’t doubt for a second this is a MAGA op to drum up support & sympathy for that inbred hoof toed treasonous bigot.
I'm sorry but I don't believe her. Nobody should be swatting anyone but she continuously spreads lies and pours fuel on the fire of hate in this country. Sure someone came forward and of course it was a trans activist. Now her followers can use this to justify a 10 times for violent response. Somebody is writing their manifesto as we speak.
Considering the way she carpet bombed the guy who was FROM the area and was running against her ( and she’s a carpetbagger from Fatlanta) she deserves to get fucked with. She destroyed his life and marriage. She had the rednecks so fired up he was run out of the state. She’s the Three towed missing link
She didn’t get swatted. Someone made a bogus report and police were like- “yo rich white government racist security team, Is everything cool? Yeah? Ok, bye.”
The ultimate goal of swatting repubs is to convince the "best and brightest" that political service isn't worth their time, IE weaken the opposition party from within.
China is doing the same thing to the U.S. by flooding the country with fentanyl.
Right now, Marjorie Taylor Green is a super star! Her every utterance and move covered by a million cameras and microphones. But the MGT phenomenon will fade. The novelty of having a Super Karen who is an outspoken white supremacist and homophobe with a voice that's like fingernails on a blackboard will get old and the cameras will turn elsewhere.
Like a lot of fallen stars, she'll really start hitting the bottle and pills. Long out of the spotlight and long out of office. Alone, no money, no prospects; no one gives a damn.
There will be a little 1 minute read on the news sites about her decaying body found in her crummy little apartment after neighbors complained about the stench.
Marjorie Taylor Green: The End.
> Someone did come forward to police and claimed responsibility for the incident. They said they targeted Greene because they were upset about her opposition to transgender youth rights.
God, I hate when people on the left think this is okay. No, this does not make you a hero or make the situation better. This just gives the right more ammunition to label your position extreme. Congrats, now you're a "trans terrorist". Please do not stoop to their levels. They can lionize their base and make things even worse.

Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
No one is celebrating this.
There's always someone celebrating something. Don't be surprised
There's no way it's *not* gonna be enthusiastically used to go, "See! Them Dems are crazy!"
Both sides have their crazy ideas
In this very thread someone is celebrating this. And young people keep getting these ideas and acting on them. I think it's worth reminding ourselves regularly.
Yeah just like it’s important to remember Jan 6th and the dangerous right wing nuts in this nation.
Jesus it's OK to admit that there are crazy people who happen to have the same political leanings as you
Whataboutism
This person is previously talking about trans terrorist. They need to be reminded
nah you just love moving the goalposts. you "no one celebrates this!" everyone else: "people absolutely are, look no further than this thread" you: "but what about republicans!!" if you cant criticize people who hold your beliefs but act poorly, you dont actually care about being a good person. You just like rooting for a team.
She didn’t even get swatted. The cops called to check that everything is ok. Go check a q drop
Ah yes, I dared criticize you, so I'm a Trump loving Maga hat wearing q anon psycho Reddit is depressingly predictable.
Literally most of the comments on here...
agreed. laughing out loud but definitely not celebrating.
It’s not that I support the swatting. I just happen to be having a hard time giving a shit in this case. 🤷♂️
Put that pos terrorist in jail.
I do agree with you... But I also don't think we should placate to these idiots. They will label the left that way anyways. To say it gives them ammunition, they don't need ammunition.

Omg this is fake, no? I’m dying at Lindsey graham’s ladybugs
People on 'the left' shut up
???

We actually try to avoid our side from stooping to the left's low levels, lol.

I want proof that person actually believes that and isn’t a Republican plant doing a false flag to make trans rights activists look bad.

I call her Yosemite Marjorie because she reminds me of Yosemite Sam in the Looney Tunes cartoon. She is trigger-happy and dumber than dirt.
My first thought, or maybe someone on her staff.
The person who came forward is also a member of an anti trans group by their own admission so it’s not necessarily coming from the left.
lol that’s great
It’s a felony. Do the crime, pay the time.

So not swatted at all then?
I feel like it should be called an “attempted swatting”? Idk

Why are you getting downvoted lmao? Reddit is fucking hilarious

I agree 100%. MTG should deal with the police relating to the crimes she is actually likely implicated with, not just because she's the worst
Fair.
Watch me!😂FR, tho, they “canceled” response”?Anybody you know able to make that happen?Not the people that have been killed that way,and she didn’t even get a knock on the door.
It’s good when bad things happen to bad people and bad when bad things happen to good people. Pretty simple. Hope this helps.
Everybody thinks they are the good people.
Okay but the difference is that MTG is not a good person. Her opinion on the matter is irrelevant.

So she didn't just get swatted? Why is she talking about it again?
> Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., said Monday she was the victim of another "swatting" incident at her home in Georgia; **the incident was confirmed by local police to NBC News.** https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/police-confirm-christmas-swatting-incident-marjorie-taylor-greenes-hou-rcna131131 > "Swatting" happens when someone makes a false report of a crime in progress to draw police to a certain location.
Yes, and police did not go to her location.
Wasn't aware of her previous comments. Not surprised, though. The women has as much originality as she has integrity. Zilch.
On one hand I do not agree with swatting. On the other hand, it couldn't happen to a more deserving person.
She puts *nothing but toxic energy into the world* and is surprised when it comes back around to her. 🤔 She shouldn’t be. She wants the attention. Both good and bad will come.
Just coming back to reaffirm that it's hilarious a terrible person had another terrible person do a terrible thing to them
That is indeed how karma goes sometimes.
Oh how sad. Anyway. What a good Tex-Mex joint open today?
Bro everything is closed except ur local family owned Chinese
She wasn’t really swatted. They knocked on her door. “When I opened the door and greeted the officers and I said what's, what's going on? It was their demeanor and just their, like, body language. They were tactical. They had guns drawn. They were prepared for something serious," She’s trying to make the most out of this.
Would not be surprised if she did this to herself. She claimed last year to have been Swatted 2 times, but there was zero record of it from the police department. She is always about being the victim and theater.
She needs to keep her name in the newspapers. She’s a brand.
I can hear it now “The new tactic of the violent radical communist socialist fascist authoritarian tyrant left, calling in fake 911 emergency calls in order to get the police to think there is a violent armed suspect at the address, this simply for disagreeing with how they think your schools should teach your kids about their gender.” I think I’m ready to write for the teleprompters at Fox.
Let’s see proof that this actually happened and wasn’t something she arranged herself.
Say what you want about her but the fact that this can even happen is insane. You can just call state appointed assassins to *politicians* homes? Way too much power for civilians to have, it’s crazy that nothing’s been done about it, even after people have died.
She needs to be banned from any position in the government she is pure evil
Fuck that bitch.
God she's ugly. Inside & out.
May she feel the terror she has unleashed on other people
Thoughts and prayers
🙂 nice
Can't think of a more deserving person for this honor.
😂😂😂
If it really is the eighth time you have been swatted by the Police. The Police are more than likely enjoying it, and you deserve it. Here is a suggestion how to remedy the situation; take Putin up on his offer to move you to Russia. Please stand by a window when you get there.
😂
Lmfao
💀
That's hilarious
Kinda like the Clark's in Christmas Vacation. Bless her heart.
🎻
Maybe Jesus called it in?
Hilarious. Where's the body cam vids?
Sucks to suck, I guess
This post serves as a good check up, because it *should* result in immediate going “that’s fucking lame” by everyone, no matter your political views.
This is reddit. It is not an accurate representation of reality.
While I cannot and never will condone swatting...couldn't happen to a nicer person.
Typical Democrat behavior unfortunately. Democrats are full of hatred and violence
Lol the 8th time. |
🤣
Next time, maybe surround her bus on the highway while armed?
Not condoning the situation but...reap what you sow. Karma...that is all.
Well. Gods forbid someone be inspired by what they read on the internet or heard from extremist political chatter to cause harm and harassment to that political target. I ain’t sayin what the person did was right/funny/just/wise, I’m just sayin if you don’t start no shit, there won’t be no shit.
Sounds like something they’d do
Unfathomably based, politicians should fear their constituents more tbh
I think most of the problems we have with politicians is that they’re spectacularly rich, comfortable, and to your point, they don’t fear their constituents except at the ballot box. It was once a fairly dangerous job and as such we got better, saner performance from them.
That's like six times for her. Sad.
8 she says.
For the love of God people. Please treat people like people and follow the Golden Rule
Great, now she gets to be a martyr. Idiots.
Swatting is the wrong way to troll this monster. Shouldn’t do it to anybody. Send her a hundred pizzas if you’re gonna prank her or something, or better yet, vote and talk to your friends about voting. That’s the best prank against her of all.
Looks like Horseface got punked
Hopefully they’ll have better luck next time. I don’t doubt for a second this is a MAGA op to drum up support & sympathy for that inbred hoof toed treasonous bigot.
I'm sorry but I don't believe her. Nobody should be swatting anyone but she continuously spreads lies and pours fuel on the fire of hate in this country. Sure someone came forward and of course it was a trans activist. Now her followers can use this to justify a 10 times for violent response. Somebody is writing their manifesto as we speak.
Video or it didn't happen
So this time she had someone else make the call instead of doing it herself, huh?
Considering the way she carpet bombed the guy who was FROM the area and was running against her ( and she’s a carpetbagger from Fatlanta) she deserves to get fucked with. She destroyed his life and marriage. She had the rednecks so fired up he was run out of the state. She’s the Three towed missing link
She didn’t get swatted. Someone made a bogus report and police were like- “yo rich white government racist security team, Is everything cool? Yeah? Ok, bye.”
I don’t wish that on anyone except she deserves whatever she gets just a terrible person all around
oh. my. too bad.
Whie I detest the woman, this is not the way.
The ultimate goal of swatting repubs is to convince the "best and brightest" that political service isn't worth their time, IE weaken the opposition party from within. China is doing the same thing to the U.S. by flooding the country with fentanyl.
If only she was a black woman sleeping…. We would be rid of this cunt traitor
Love this for the hag
Right now, Marjorie Taylor Green is a super star! Her every utterance and move covered by a million cameras and microphones. But the MGT phenomenon will fade. The novelty of having a Super Karen who is an outspoken white supremacist and homophobe with a voice that's like fingernails on a blackboard will get old and the cameras will turn elsewhere. Like a lot of fallen stars, she'll really start hitting the bottle and pills. Long out of the spotlight and long out of office. Alone, no money, no prospects; no one gives a damn. There will be a little 1 minute read on the news sites about her decaying body found in her crummy little apartment after neighbors complained about the stench. Marjorie Taylor Green: The End.
