Ah yes - that’s why I visit the Gizmodo family of online publications - just to read the hate and ignorance, followed by the continued propagation of the hate and ignorance in the comments.

Woh, woh, woh - this isn’t the place to come publish facts. You’re supposed to tow-the-line of anything remotely Trump, Republican, or white male oriented is racist, homophobic, ignorant, sexist, etc.

Are you a cop? Have you worked with law enforcement officers? How do you know what they think? And why would you believe that they all think the same way? Nt all members of a group, much less an occupation, feel the same way about different things.

Oddly enough, the Democratic party was created after Andrew Jackson won the popular election but lost the presidency due to the Electoral College and, every since then, Democrats have been the party that comes out on the losing end of the Electoral College vs. popular vote differences.

Cops are generally given the benefit of a doubt because they, like firefighters, enter highly stressful situations that can result in their own deaths. In this swatting situation, responding officers were told that there was an active hostage situation with an armed assailant that had spun out of control.

This is ridiculous. Many people have used packet sniffers and other techniques to see if the Amazon devices communicate with Amazon (or other servers) when people are talking around the device w/o using the wake-up word. The echo simple doesn’t do this and the supposed evidence of the couple that was somehow recorded…

Or we could focus on the cause of this whole issue - the swatter. In the mean time, perhaps you can ride in the back of my car while I’m driving and let me know how I’m doing...
