Everything about this is great except for the cash tips, that's not safe :(

I'm sure there's some sort of tap-to-tip thing for paywave or Apple pay or whatever nowadays?

I either saw this in the video in the article or some other article about it but they showed some dude tossing his trumpbucks in a bucket zip-tied to the front of the stage and the performer gave this awesome fistpump. I feel like this has stopped being stripping and has become elaborate titty busking at this point which feels like the first "this isn't too terrible" thing about this entire year

what does swatting mean

Looking professional when committing genocide is essential. This is mostly achieved by using a beret.

Olive drab colour ensures the genocider will remain hidden from his prey until it's too late for them to do anything.

In case thats real, and in case youre serious:

Its what they call it when you call the police on someone and report a fake crime that the cops love to play dressup for. You say "they are a front for scary drug cartel mexicans and I think they are killing babies too!"

Then the cops kick in the door and kill everyone.

It works since you can mostly assume any given police dept in the US has a number of killers on it, and they gravitate towards SWAT kill squads.

the kicker is that the cops of course are not held accountable or criticized for killing innocent people based on a random tip, and also that the risk of death to innocents is so assured that the courts hold that swatting is essentially attempted murder

which it totally is, but its still great that the courts will uphold the two positions of "our cops are good hardworking fellows who can do no wrong and thus we will trust their word in court and never convict them for killing people" and "oh yeah if you call the police on a totally innocent person you're pretty much trying to kill them because the police are insane freaks and will murder them". so basically calling the police on anyone at all, for any reason, is an attempt on their life.

quote:

"I heard my son scream, I got up, and then I heard a shot," said Lisa Finch, the mother of shooting victim Andrew Finch, in a video interview with the Wichita Eagle. Police then took Lisa Finch outside, along with "my roommate and my granddaughter, who witnessed the shooting and had to step over her dying uncle’s body," handcuffed them all, placed everyone into separate police cars, and took them downtown for interviews.

https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2018/01/suspect-in-deadly-kansas-swatting-hoax-charged-with-manslaughter/

quote:

Authorities believe that Barriss made a hoax phone call that sent police to the home of an innocent man, Andrew Finch, on December 28. Finch opened the door with his hands up. But when he briefly lowered his hands toward his waistband, a police officer shot him, believing that Finch could be reaching for a gun.

As you might imagine, there were quite a few cop defenders for this one.

the swatter knew that the police or 911 could track his call and realize it was a fraud so he came up with a different approach

in other words, he used more circumspection than the actual shooter
