Sandy Hook Shootings

Watcha'll think about the Sandy Hook shooting?
After looking at all the facts, I gotta call BS. Like...you can't even pull the "OH suuuure *whisper* he's just a crazy conspiracy theorist" card that people did for 9/11.

[quote=Dorks]Considering that the video is titled "conspiracy theory", which the phrase itself has a bad rap, I'm afraid I'll have to ask for the video's references.[/quote]

For whats probably gonna be only 1 out of a million times, watch the video, he explains a lot of where his references are from. A lot of them are from news reports that were put on youtube and/also released by news report websites.
[b]watch the video[/b]

[quote=eean]why does "after looking at the facts" always translate to "I watched a conspiracy theory video which skews information to support its thesis"

right off the bat, you should be suspicious of this video, because it makes the same lapse in judgment and common sense that the "Loose Change" film did: it presents eyewitness testimony and preliminary news reports as fact, and uses their apparent conflict with the real version of events as evidence that something fishy is afoot. but everyone should know that eyewitness testimony is notoriously unreliable, and news networks fall all over themselves to get stories out when big stuff like this happens. they'll report things before they are confirmed or fully fact-checked, because they're trying to grab the ratings. sorry, but I couldn't bring myself to watch beyond the first few minutes with that in mind.[/quote]

Oh boy...
I don't think I'll be answering anything past this point from you:
1. You didn't even watch it and you're knocking it...lol. Though you are absolutely right. A friend told me about it from work and I said the same thing you did; "Meh, i'm skeptical about it because most conspiracy theories sound a little fat fetched" till I had the decency any person looking to be more informed about a topic would do, I looked into it, even while I was watching the video. Every time he'd show something as evidence, I'd google it and find the same results.
2. No, you're absolutely right, but that's literally all they have to say it happened, "eye witness testimony". Otherwise there is no proof kids were actually shot in the school. Actually, there's probably more proof no one was shot
-[b]The day after the shooting, after the "chief medical examiner" examined all the bodies, he said "the main weapon of use was the assault rifle" when there is video evidence of the police retrieving the rifle from the "gun man's" trunk. [/b]
-if you look at other public shootings, the kill/injury ratio is nothing like the one at sandy hooks. 26 kills, 1 injury compared to other shootings: Virginia tech 32 deaths 23 hurt, Aurora shooting 12 deaths 59 hurt. Notice anything? Some kid with no gun experience managed to kill 26 frantic, running people?

[b]watch the video[/b], then come talk to me.

Just to make it clear to anyone else, ^ is not what I'm trying to say.

So, you're telling me that you have all of these facts, where children and school staff were murdered at the hands of a man with a gun, and you're primary concern with the entire situation is to debate that the entire situation is a hoax?

Good luck.[/quote]

[quote=zoneflare2]@redpitbull01: LOL ive stopped celebrating my bday years ago. I see no point of black history month since it was made as a way to say "hey sorry you had to endure all that but here is a month dedicated for you" Sad how you dont see a Native American Month or that fact that they just dont integrate black history with the regular stuff that is taught. I stick to what im saying I mean people like to go boohoo over this but they end up forgetting and moving on, we did for Springfield and Columbine.[/quote]

First off, how old are you? (I was originally gonna post this at the end but I get the feeling you're the type to not read all the way to the end, not sure, prove me wrong please)

LOL. Would you like me to list the days of the month for all the cultures/races/religions out there man? It's called getting a point across. Sad how you didn't see that
Boo hoo? Oh man.....Someone clearly never learned from the most classic and IMO one of the most valuable sayings of all time "Those who cannot learn from the past are condemned to repeat it"
Seriously though I keep reading this and laughing. This wasn't that long ago man = barely a month. Or are you one of those "that's so yesterday" people?
Hypothetical: Someone shoots and kills your mother. You go to jail for it. 1 month later evidence shows it wasn't you. Nah, we forgot about it cuz it was a month ago, enjoy your 25 years in prison man.

And i really don't think you understand the importance of all this;
1. if this is a hoax, police, "parents", news media, etc. all lied to your face, about some SERIOUS stuff. You don't just brush that off LOL. If you heard on the news that pigs fly and a some people said "they saw it happen", would you believe it?
2. There actually IS evidence strongly suggesting there is a lot of falsehood to these claims
3. Proof you read this to the end: say Magikarp

LOL. My primary concern is how not a lot of sense was made. (investigations of the shooting, how the situation was dealt with, information released etc.)
Cheif medical examiner said the majority of the damage caused (to the victims) was with an assault rifle. The "lone gun man" left the assault rifle in the car.
Parents smiling and behaving in ways which are not coherent with the behaviour of someone who is grieving (like holy, you're 1st grade kid was shot to death)
This guy killed A LOT OF PEOPLE. There was something like 26 deaths and only a few injuries? Have you seen other shootings and what the death-injury ration was like? "Oh, but they were kids!" - but little kids running aren't exactly an easy target and this "gun man had no prior firearm experience.
DUDE. WHY. Just WHY would roads be cut off to emergency workers? Why would paramedics pull an injured person from the school and WALK them calmly back to the ambulance? If none of this makes you go "hmmmm" then you gotta stop letting other people think for you.

Pretty sober buddy. also; What* are* you* and you forgot the question mark. Before you question my mental state, at least prove to me that "you're smarter than a 5th grader". From what I remember about that show, the kids did better than most of the contestants
