Default Sandy Hook Shooting A Hoax?

I came across this video and I found it interesting. I'm not a saying I believe in it and I'm not saying don't either. I just wanted to see some of your thoughts about it! What do you guys think?

Honestly, how did this get allowed to start? And why is this being allowed to continue?

I was there. I was at the vigil, and I saw the faces of the parents, and I witnessed the way each of them burst into tears as the names of their loved one was read. I even made my way to one of the funerals, for one of the young girls, but I will not reveal her name, so as to protect her perfectly innocent identity. With my own eyes, I witnessed the unbearably small casket being lowered into the earth, and with it, a little angel never to be seen again. I know for a fact that this was no hoax.

I just wonder if any of these conspirators know what it is like to lose a child, or to have a child die in their arms when there was absolutely nothing they could have done to save this little life. Every time I witness the death of a child, I always hope and pray that it will be the last in my own life. Every time I attend the funeral, or even speak at the funeral, a bit of me dies along with them.

I rarely speak of my personal life, but I have a 6 year old daughter of my own, so I know well what each parent lost that day. And the thought of something happening to my daughter is something that has frequently kept me awake at night. As someone who has witnessed far too many deaths during the course of my life, and as a father, my heart goes out to each and every one of these families.

For the survivors, and their families, I hope their lives can soon reach some sense of normalcy.

And as for the staff, they did what we can only hope to have done in such a situation; they gave their lives to protect our young children. In so doing, they themselves have been absolved of any past sins, and have reached the rank of "Angel."

I know the pain will only be pillowed by time. This is a mark that will will carry with us for the rest of our lives, and rightfully so. May they never be forgotten. I wish them and their families peace, every single one of them.

Selah.

I don't mind if conspiracy nuts want to latch on to everything that ever gets shown on the news and call it a hoax, but shit like this just ain't right.

In all honesty, the very fact that these conspiracies happened at all, much less allowed to continue, it sickens me almost as much as the shooting itself did. The entire town just lost a part of their very lives because of what happened on that day. Now these harrasments are not adding insult to injury; it is just all out abominations that should never have happened.

Why are most of the families staying out of the public eye? Honestly, if you lost your child, your mother, your sibling, you would never leave your house. Same is true with Newtown. Besides, the journalists wanting to interview them, this is neither the time, nor the place. Just wish the families well, and leave them be. That is exactly why I refused to speak to any of the journalists when I was there, even though many of them did try.

My guess is that such conspiracies are fuelled by the nature of the media in the US. Lots of live TV channel reporters with no idea what is going on (because the people who know are busy with more important tasks) but under pressure to come up with information faster than the competition. The result is lots of conflicting info.

Not a badly done conspiracy though. Some of the points are a bit creepy, like the change in expression of the father. There may be a reasonable explanation for this, but once you are primed by the conspiratory material preceeding the videos you are more likely to conform with the existing interpretation.

It would be a lot simpler to have a bunch of children killed than it would be to hire that many actors and manage to keep it all secret and kill everyone who didn't go along with the hoax. If you're setting something up like that, then you may as well actually do it.

Not that anyone would need to do it. Shootings occur with a certain regularity in the US. Why take the risk of manufacturing one when you can just wait a little while?

I don't buy it. It doesn't explain anything that can't much more easily be explained by newsmen being pushed to do a bad job. Sure it could be a hoax/conspiracy, anything could. But I ask you the more important question: is it probable?

I was thinking the same thing pretty much. What is to stop someone from opening their mouth?

The same thing that keeps anyone who commits a crime from speaking.

Whoever is willing to pay.

This post is probably full of absurdly controversial stuff, try not to take it too seriously.

How much would you have to pay people to pretend that their child was dead though; or to shut up about your having killed them? I don't think you'd get too many takers even if you were offering a million dollars a head.

Well exactly, which is why the chances of this conspiracy being close to true are very slim.

Fear can be a bigger motivation than money though. Scare someone enough and they'll bend the truth for you.
