Popular conservative Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene was swatted last night at her home just after 1 AM in the morning.
“Swatting” is the action or practice of making a prank call to emergency services in an attempt to bring about the dispatch of a large number of armed police officers to a particular address.
This is a dangerous prank used by the American left against their political opponents. It is very dangerous because it could lead to a violent confrontation if the police are not aware of the situation.
Rep. Greene posted this on Twitter this an hour ago.
Last night, I was swatted just after 1 am.
I can’t express enough gratitude to my local law enforcement here in Rome, Floyd County.

Of course, the leftist trolls responded with typical hate under her tweet. They don’t have to worry about being banned and they delight in the thought of MTG being harmed.
Let’s hope they catch the perpetrators.
Very thankful for the local law enforcement there in Rome. Whoever did this will face the consequences of the full extent of the law. https://t.co/t1UOVML2vm

Update:
Authorities say they are investigating a 911 call that claimed a shooting was taking place at Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R-Ga.) home early Wednesday morning.
The Rome Police Department in northwest Georgia said in a statement that officers responded to a 911 call at 1:03 a.m. claiming an individual was shot multiple times at Greene’s house.
“She assured the officers there was no issue and the call was determined to be a false call commonly known as ‘swatting,’” the statement read.
Officials said they received a second call from the suspect, who was using a computer-generated voice, saying they were upset about Greene’s view on transgender rights.
The lawmaker has been an outspoken opponent of the transgender ideology and last week introduced a bill to make “gender-affirming care” and things like puberty blockers, hormone treatments and gender assignment surgeries a felony.
The Rome Police Department said they are investigating the incident alongside the U.S. Capitol Police. Capitol Police did not immediately return a request for comment.
The current Chinese controlled Democrat party will stop at NOTHING , Illegal, unethical to destroy their political enemies.
Capitol Police??? They are the worst jokers of a force around. They couldn’t even investigate why a traffic light changes colors and come to a conclusion!
