Justin Bieber's California Home Gets 'Swatted' by 911 Pranksters
21 replies, posted
[QUOTE]A SWAT team descended upon Justin Bieber's home in Calabasas, Calif., on Wednesday, responding to a 911 call that turned out to be a hoax.
Citing officials, the L.A. Times reports that the emergency call was transmitted around 1:40 a.m. through a TTY device generally used by the deaf and hearing-impaired to type text over the phone. The message, purportedly dispatched from inside Casa Bieber, reported there was someone with a weapon.
When armed police deputies arrived on the scene, people at the property said they never contacted 911.[/QUOTE]

Waiting for the article about SWAT being distracted by a prank call instead of reporting to an actual crime.
Alright, this is just stupid. I don't like Bieber's music but distracting 911 with a prank call is at best irresponsible and at worst obscenely dangerous. Those 'pranksters' are fucking idiots.

But it was Beiber so it's ok.
I don't get the Bieber hate. Seems like a bandwagon to me.
There is artists out there that makes much worse music.

Idiots mainly who think it's cool to hate him. Personally I'm not a fan of his music but I don't wish anything bad upon the guy, he seems to be pretty cool when not dealing with music.

I don't dislike him personally, although many 'Beliebers' are incredibly irritating.
I dislike him because he is incredibly dumb for his age and makes shit music which he is probably doing just for the money.

I could say the same about Nickleback.
I like to make fun of bieber because for whatever reason he is a celebrity super star and there is no real good reason why. His music is shit and he almost looks like a lesbian, how is he so popular? Is the power of marketing that strong or are people just mentally retarded?
I dont have anything against the guy, but his fans can be really goddamn annoying/retarded at times.
I bet they feel pretty smug right now...
didnt he have some nudes get posted aswell?
Can someone please explain how you SWAT someone anyways? I don't want to do it myself, I'm just curious how they do it and get away with it, aren't emergency calls tracked?
You ring them up screaming a guy with a assault rifle is in your friend's house. Done.

They're tracked, but there's ways to not have to call from your own number.

Doesn't sound like it was tracked very well.

I agree, Corey Taylor said it best if you ask me. He has respect for the people before him and the people after him. His music isn't some mindless babble like that made by Rebecca Black.
In any case police resources should not be used for pranks.

You're joking right?
a shame there wasn't actually someone who wanted to shot bieber. thumbs up if u agree
