Yikes !!!
I am glad to hear you and your dad are safe. Quite honestly, when it comes to stuff like this, the perp should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
Unless they’ve changed it, the last time I knew it was only a misdemeanor to swat someone, which is, in my opinion, a joke. There has already been a death as a result of the sheer stupidity of some people.
