Bomb threats and 'swatting' campaign hits dozens of synagogues

Duranie , 10 months ago

The synagogue my boyfriend’s children go to used to have a summer program that provided excellent childcare, even very low cost. Then a few years ago because of some other synagogues getting hit, their insurance skyrocketed and with the increased rates would have required guards on premises whenever children were present. As it was never a money making program, they had to shut it down.

The Orange County Bomb Squad found no explosives, and police said the false report did not constitute a crime.

How the fuck is the false reporting of a crime like this not a crime? Why would falsely reporting any crime not be criminal itself?

Fuck, society is infuriating.

Believe it or not, the police are wrong about the law. A single Google search for “California false police report” shows that it is, in fact, a crime.

Well, that just makes me wonder if the cop in question was actually involved with the group that made the false report.

It’s possible. It’s more likely that they are either ignorant of the law, or that they just don’t want to do their jobs.

That's horseshit:

they're nazis, and they're covering for their pals who they may or may not know who called in the bomb threat. OC has Klansmen

The synagogue I went to as a child was firebombed in the 80s. Thankfully, it was empty at the time. This is no joke.
