These inconsistencies......
Alex Jones, the host of the far-right conspiracy theory show "InfoWars," made numerous false claims and pointed out what he described as "glaring inconsistencies" in the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre. These claims were part of a broader conspiracy theory that the massacre, in which 26 people, including 20 children, were killed, was a staged event. Some of the key "inconsistencies" Jones pointed to include:
1. **Crisis Actors**: Jones repeatedly suggested that the parents of the victims and other individuals involved were "crisis actors" hired by the government or other entities to fake the tragedy. He claimed that the emotional responses of parents and witnesses were not genuine, which he believed was evidence that the event was staged.
2. **Lack of Evidence**: Jones questioned the lack of photographic and video evidence from the day of the shooting, particularly the absence of footage showing the children being evacuated or the aftermath inside the school. He claimed that this lack of visual evidence supported the idea that the shooting did not occur as reported.
3. **Media Manipulation**: Jones accused the mainstream media of colluding with the government to promote a false narrative. He suggested that news reports were intentionally misleading or fabricated to push for stricter gun control laws, using the Sandy Hook tragedy as a pretext.
4. **Multiple Shooters**: Jones and others in the conspiracy theory community speculated that there were multiple shooters involved in the attack, despite official reports confirming that Adam Lanza acted alone. They claimed that witness reports of additional suspects were covered up.
5. **Death Certificates and Records**: Jones questioned the availability and authenticity of death certificates and other official records related to the victims. He implied that these documents were either falsified or missing, which he presented as evidence of a cover-up.
These claims have been thoroughly debunked by numerous investigations and fact-checks. The Sandy Hook massacre was a real and tragic event, and the conspiracy theories spread by Jones and others have caused significant harm to the victims' families. Jones eventually faced multiple defamation lawsuits filed by the families of the victims, leading to legal judgments against him. In court, Jones admitted that the massacre was real, contradicting his earlier claims.
The man is scum and anyone who believes a word he said is a complete nutter.
