"Swatting" is when an individual calls 911 and reports a S.W.A.T. level crime. This results in the S.W.A.T. team breaking into the home with their assault rifles drawn, ready to fire. Outlawing "Swatting" will decrease the number of civilian casualties per year. "Swatting" can result in false arrests, and sometimes even deaths. Celebrities have been targeted by this "prank." If a federal law is placed, the number of years in prison increase, and the number of false 911 calls decrease.
