I’m personally offering $1000 and my friend Brandon Darby kicked in $1000 and thanks to people who have committed in, the reward commitment is at $1225 $2550! Over $8000! I still need to add up everything, but BlogWorldExpo has committed $5000! (See below if you want to help.)
First, Mike Stack was swatted last June. Then, Patterico was swatted a week later. Last night, Erick Erickson had an attempted swatting. And then on my podcast interview with Patterico last night, someone who seems to be the swatter called into the show, admitted to swatting Pat, laughed, and lashed out at Michelle Malkin.
I’m not a wealthy person but I can do something so I’m offering $1000 of my money to the person that supplies the piece of information that brings about the arrest and conviction of whoever is behind these behind these swatting. Call it my investment in the First Admendment.
Other people have committed to chip in — the reward will be the total of all money collected from these commitments.
Email any tips here to me Lee@Stranahan.com
UPDATE : Wow. Within 10 minutes of posting, 2 people had offered to kick in a little commitment. Obviously, no money is needed now — we’re paying after a conviction. So if you want to commit, either email me at Lee@Stranahan.com or leave a comment that includes your correct email address and I’ll get it organized to contact you when we get this guy,

Lee, as I said on twitter I will kick in 200 USD on this if someone can help get this scumbag in bracelets. The liner in the sand must be drawn. This far, No Farther!
I was worried it was me until I figured out what “swatting” meant. Yeah, okay, that’s pretty low.
Lee, I pledge $25 to this worth cause, as i said on twitter
@JohnGaltReport
I’ll tighten our belts and commit $50.00 >>>> check your email as well, however I am excluding myself from any reward it something I send you ends up being the straw that breaks the camels back.
I’m Good for $250.
I am a left leaning independent and don’t always agree with what you or the others write, but I do believe in freedom of the press. This action against you and others is Un-American and I will gladly support you and your friends in catching this person(s). Please put me down for $50.00. Thanks and good luck!!
I’m poor, but I can afford $25 if it means putting this a-hole behind bars.
Mentioned it up there in the Facebook comments, but I’m good for $100. Just let me know.
I am good for $100 paid upon conviction of this SOB.
$250
I’m in for $25, not much, but a bit from everyone should help. Thank you for your strong first amend stand.
Hell yeah every bit helps.
There are a lot of folks pulling together on this issue. Folks who have conflicting opinions or personalities. Folks who have substantial differences with eachother. I think ‘they’ have done their best to sow discord, but in the long run, they have pulled freedom loving people together. We may not all be BFFs, but we love our freedom to debate and opine and speak truth, which the swatters were designed to inhibit and intimidate against.
I will help with $100 for a successful conviction.
Dose anyone know his phone number and where he lives? Maybe a bunch of could get together and drive by, I’ve got Idaho plates on my big jacked up 4X4 1984 F250 diesel Ford truck. I’ll buy some rebel flag stickers and reinstall my gun rack and drive it thru a muddy field before I get their. Anyone want to join me and cruse his street?
^ probably astroturf.
