Enough with online trends

I'll be honest and to the point: "SWATting" and the majority of other online inspired pranks like it are down right stupid, and they do nothing, but put peoples' lives at risk. It's nothing more than a waste of time and resources that can be better used doing something more beneficial to an individual or society in general.
