Let’s talk about how you can alert law enforcement to crimes, and what constitutes something you might consider reporting, and what likely doesn’t. Im not saying anyone SHOULD do this. But everyone should know how to do it, and clearly people don’t.

First and foremost, do not tag law enforcement agencies on Twitter as a way of reporting ANYTHING. It doesn’t work. Also, tweeting or RT-ing a screenshot is not an effective means of alerting law enforcement.

If you want to tip federal law enforcement, you have a couple of options. If it relates to the J6 Capitol events, there’s a website where you can upload photos and video. (There’s also a toll free number if your uploads exceed the limit.)

If you have a tip that’s not related to the J6 events, you have other options. You can call the FBI, and give your tip by phone, with or without your name.

Or you can use the FBI website to submit it online (again, with or without your name). Here’s the landing page. https://t.co/X7Tl2I6sbm
