Smashing.

I'm not a Democrat or a Republican.

So that mask you assume im wearing is crumbling.

I don't agree with swatting or MTG.

Simple as that really.


So, why are you cheering on what happened to them? Can you condemn the swattters, without also condemning MTG?

If you feel she deserved it, you are supporting it!

Must have missed the part where you mentioned "corporate sorts or those who choose to cheat on their spouse".


No hard feelings either.

Again all sorts of people choose to hide/mask their identities via the use of burners.

Where am i cheering?

I'm simply not surprised considering this is about the 8th time this has happened to the person in question.

I don't think swatting is a good idea hence deserving is the wrong choice of word.

I also suggested the people who are responsible be prosecuted to the full extent of your laws.

Not quite seeing how that's support but again, and I can't quite stress this enough people who do silly things tend to draw attention to themselves, provoke the actions of others, and win stupid prizes.

Who benefits from these "swats"? Margorie Taylor Green does, that's who. Eight times she's been swatted? I dont know, but it smells pretty fishy to me.

I'm just glad that she had homemade Christmas cookies and spiced nuts to give these officers.

Insider trading and marital indiscretions are not my department. You want to talk to Bob down the hall.
First door on your left. He'll have rubber duckies on his desk.

But seriously I'm not getting paid for my contributions here so insisting I have to be some sort of magical and comprehensive authority on every issue under the sun and address every bit of minutia to cater to your personal demands is frankly a little unfair and insulting.

" Marj promotes anger and hate towards others."




No She does Not . That's just your Uneducated Opinion ..........


In 2018 and 2019, she repeatedly indicated her support for the execution of leading Democratic politicians on social media and in speeches. Among other things, she liked a comment regarding Nancy Pelosi's removal from office with the statement "a bullet in the head would be faster" and declared in a speech that Pelosi had committed treason, which is a criminal offence punishable by death. She also wrote "HANG that bitch" under a Facebook post calling for the arrest of Barack Obama and John Kerry and liked another comment calling for a "Civil War 2.0". In September 2020, Taylor Greene shared a meme on her Facebook page that was captioned "Squad's worst nightmare" and showed Congressmen Omar and Tlaib and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in a photo montage next to Taylor Greene holding a semi-automatic rifle. Commenting on this image, Taylor Greene said it was time to "take action against socialists who want to tear the country apart."

She is pretty active on social media with a lot of followers. She is a politician and therefor she has responsibility. There are quite a few people who can be inflamed by her words and actions, infected with anger and hate. This can lead to bad things. She sows hate. Constantly. Or how do you define it?

Such "pranks" are dangerous and have to be punished by law. Thats for sure.

Are you sure it's not "Bob the Builder" you're after?


Though i'm not quite sure where he resides, or what he has on his plates of meat.

Anyhoo back on topic.

Swatting is illegal and wrong and MTG is a complete and utter nonsensical Fraggle.

I heard the pay part, which would be good, if you manage to work that one out send me a link.


As to my demands, i don't believe i have made any yet, is that a request?

Possible publicity from both ends of the political spectrum.

Or just some daft nut job or weans playing a sad silly prank.

This time of year is probably not that complicated.

The only end I see benefiting from this is MTG's end. I can't see how her adversaries win anything from these incidents.

Eight times? I think a daft nut job playing a sad silly prank would get caught by the eighth time.

It doesn't need to be the same person or group that instigated all 8 attempts at swatting.

And to be rather frank, considering the type of person MTG appears to be, never mind the audience she plays to, and the other side who she clearly annoys, i would not be surprised at a disgruntled queue for the phone.

Just idiots trying to cause chaos or draw publicity would be my bet.

There are people who get excited giving others grief, and if they did something 7 times, and no one stopped them, well that eighth time is just another dopamine release.
I think Tim Pool from Timcast was swatted way more than eight times and it was so many times it became expected. Eventually they stopped coming in guns akimbo, and that’s probably what has also happened here. The police still have to go look, but most likely aren’t running in with weapons drawn after the 4th or 5th fake call to that address.

MTG gets enough press that she does not have to generate any.

I do wonder if the "fix" for this is going to just be another grab at our privacy rights. Deep down I do not trust either side on this subject. One side does it, the other side complains and then a new law is passed across the political aisle that takes more of our rights away.


It's not a fix, but awareness goes a long way.

Law enforcement officers, their departments, and 911 dispatchers should all be made aware that this is happening, so they can deal with the possibility of it accordingly.

On that idea of awareness, what if there was a sticker, or sign that law enforcement, or a repeated swatting victim could create that signifies to any arriving police the residence has been swatted before, and please do not just kick the door in before inquiring. I'm sure the police department would have the residence flagged on their computers, but an extra indicator at the home would let them see that the homeowner expected to be swatted again at some point.

Like the tot finder stickers they use to put on the window of the child bedroom, so a firefighter knew to check that room.

Sometimes I see something so stupid that I want to educate it to make the world a better place. But then somethings are so absurdly stupid they could only be called evil. And it’s better not to engage with evil people.

This may be a more accurate article:

Police confirm swatting incident targeting Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's house on Christmas

It looks like Brandon Williams was the person who posted about the cookies and spiced nuts.


In a separate incident Monday, Republican Rep. Brandon Williams of New York tweeted that his home was swatted, and said state and local police "left with homemade cookies and spiced nuts!"


In Marjorie Taylor Greene's case...


Major Rodney Bailey of the police department in Rome, Georgia, said that a person based in Rome, New York, made a call to the suicide hotline claiming that he had shot his girlfriend at Greene’s address in Georgia and threatened to kill himself next.

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.

Marj promotes anger and hate towards others.

Seems fitting that those same people might react to that anger and hate.

What she got was a taste of her own medicine. If you go around being intolerant, you might not be to tolerated yourself.

For every action, there is a reaction. Words have consequences. Legal or otherwise. And I agree. There should be prison time for this kind of behavior.

And my guess, it was Boebert. LOL!


…. Here’s what I find most interesting about the replies like this and others, especially in THIS Bulletin Board:

Why would anyone (Liberals, socialists, narratives driven, etc..) want to come to an online discussion forum called ABOVE TOP SECRET???? Obviously the name alone implies we are all here to discuss theories of all sorts, including Conspiracies?


Now what in the darn tootin’ would these “types” bother reading (or even posting and replying) to anything here??!?


Hmmmmm….

That particular reply justifies attempted murder for words. At the very least it is saying that the two are equal. I believe the purpose was simply to flame the thread.

Here's a conspiracy for you, though. What if every time she is swatted someone is recording the time and size of the response. Waiting for enough time to elapse between the call and response. In this way, a real call would become ineffective if an actual crime were to take place.

Illegal activity.

That’s how the left is. Get your feelings hurt, break the law to try and get back at them.

Has anyone mentioned that she’s had death threats that have not been prosecuted?
