Your comprehensive answer to every Sandy Hook conspiracy theory

First of all. Children did die that day.

I don't see a conspiracy. What I do see is a total lack of information from the media cartels. They made things up as they went along reporting it. Even the state news of CT made thing's up. The WHOLE issue is the misinformation and disinformation the media has put forth surrounding Sandy Hook.

If there is a conspiracy it was made and brought to you by your trusted media cartel.

While it’s often best not to engage with conspiracy theorists on their own turf, as you can probably never convince them, it’s worth setting the record straight on all the myths and phony evidence surrounding the Sandy Hook massacre.

We’ve rounded up every major piece of evidence we could find that leads theorists to say the “official narrative” of events “doesn’t add up” and provided the facts that show why these questions can be easily explained. We’ve ignored the empty accusations with no evidence to support them (it was the Jews!) and focused only on the theories that try to present actual empirical or circumstantial evidence.

Let us know if we missed any and we’ll add to it as more myths emerge. In no particular order, here is your comprehensive guide to disproving the Sandy Hook Truthers:

Why aren’t the adults sadder? “They aren’t behaving the way human beings would act,” as conspiracy theorist Jay Weidner told fellow conspiracy theorist Jeff Rense on his radio show. Theorists have zeroed in on Robbie Parker, who they say wasn’t grieving hard enough for his slain 6-year-old daughter, Emilie. In one widely circulated clip, Parker laughs before stepping up to the microphone, and apparently someone says “read from the card” (as in cue card) before Parker breathes heavily in anticipation of beginning a press conference. “This is what actors do to get into character,” one popular YouTube video states. Rense and Weidner also take issue with the mourning of the school nurse, the family of slain teacher Victoria Soto, and others. “ALL ACTORS??? NO TEARS,” wonders the author of SandyHookHoax.com on a page featuring videos with numerous interviews from the shooting.

Answer: People mourn in many different ways, sometimes all at once. As a recent Scientific American article on gref noted, “oscillation between sadness and mirth repeated itself in study after study … Time and again, a grief-stricken person’s expression would change from dejection to laughter and back.” George Bonanno, a psychologist at Columbia University who studies grief, even developed a way to determine if this mourner’s laughter was genuine or merely a facade to hide grief — he determined that they “exhibited the real thing.” Scientists think this is part of our internal resilience mechanisms kicking in, because constant grief is simply too much for a person to handle.

What about Emilie? One of the most common myths circulated on message boards and in YouTube videos is that Emilie Parker is actually alive. The “proof” is a photo purportedly showing her with President Obama when he visited the school after the shooting. Conspiracists know it’s Emilie because she’s wearing the same dress as the one Emilie wore in a family portrait taken before the shooting (an alternative theory is that the girl in the photo with Obama is her “double”). Other websites take issue with the family portrait, alleging it was Photoshopped for some reason, pointing to the fact that the Emilie is making a “devil’s horns” sign with her hands and “making the devil’s horn hand sign isn’t easy. Try it yourself. Imagine getting a 3- and 4-year-old do it.”

Answer: The girl on Obama’s lap is Emilie’s little sister. It’s amazing that we have to say this, but sometimes younger siblings wear clothes passed down to them from older siblings, and sometimes siblings look alike because they are siblings. And there’s no evidence or even motive given for why the portrait would be Photoshopped. Making a “devil’s horn” gesture is actually incredibly easy. Try it yourself.

Why do they all look the same? Numerous websites juxtapose pictures of people from Newtown against pictures of similar looking people from Aurora, Colo., and assert they are the same actors.

Answer: Not all women with brown hair are the same person.

Typical, just make up crap, repeat it as if truth. Fucking morons.

What your post does not address is the many many "hard" facts that do not add up in this case.

There are more holes in the Salon article than swiss cheese.

What about the school nurse?
What about Lanza'a mother 'the kindergarten teacher'
What about CCTV footage?
What about the concussion, hearing loss, and disorientation from 165 decibels from each shot?
What about the missing photos/videos of fleeing kids?
What about Lanza, to fire hundreds of rounds, needing to carry in excess of his own body weight of ammo?

That is for starters.

Salon is a George Soros front = Shills

Were you the one who called someone a "moron"? Maybe that is why it got deleted.

You ignored the link which has more info (you know, you can't post whole articles here). You can also go to S-n-o-p-e-s for more, and the videos for more. And what is funny is that these are "easily debunked" but the ones that started "it's a conspiracy" and the ones most spread about.

The "hard" stuff is often things like "contradictions in story" which happens for any major incident which happens and witnesses are called in. This is basic stuff. Seriously, the sad thing is - conspiracy theorists often forget they believed the bs which got them to believe it is a conspiracy and then ignore that they changed their own stories over time.

I scream you are a bloody awful person who doesn't give a damn about children,

Actually I agree with you and understand that the "fog of war" applies to any emerging horror scene. Things are confusing at the time and no one knows exactly what is happening, so reports can be far off. Moreover, I think the news media are completely out of control trying to one-up each other with breaking news. They are sloppy with facts and probably verge on making-up things to create a narrative they can throw up on the air for the consumption of the viewer.

Look for example at the early reporting on JFK assassination. There were only a few media outlets, they all told the same story, and it was simple.

Still, that said, when the coroner utters a logical impossibility, that is troubling. When parents are barred from seeing their dead children, that is troubling. When helicopter video and witnesses report one or two extra men being apprehended, and we never hear about them again, that is troubling. And frankly I find the internet dates troubling. Yes they can be faked and yes mistakes happen. But the SS death index is real. I looked up a bunch of my dead relatives (no one could know who they are, right?) and the index nailed their days of birth and death perfectly. How come it got AL wrong?

And let's look again at JFK. Even with the highly circumspect media of those times, and the THREE government investigations that have followed, many questions are still not answered to this day. So we can't blame "fog of war" for everything.

(Snip)
And just FYI, no I'm not a toothless redneck married to my sister nor a gun-toting prepper. I'm a Ph.D. professional in high tech living comfortably in one of the most liberal communities in America, a lifelong liberal as were both my parents, never owned a gun.

However, if you want to place a tin foil hat on my head then yes I'll admit that evil people with evil intent operate on the international stage. Some of them are "the good guys" (pro-US) and some are not. But on some level what's the difference? They do evil things for evil reasons and sometimes they do them to us. You, me, trusting hardworking Americans who love our little children and once loved a President who gave us hope. Evil people kill more than humans, they kill dreams. They kill cultures.

And people like you are their apologists.

As for your links, I'm going there now. But honestly, the one starting with the letters S and N is bullshit with a highly liberal-media-establishment bias.

And there you have it, a, drum roll, LiBtArD 8)

WOW.....I thought maybe someone intelligent was going to really debunk some of the critical questions. No it turns out to be another one who has decided to close their eyes and use weak easily debunked items. Honestly do you blind little sheep think that some of these serious inquirers aren't searching themselves to find out and sort through what is right and wrong. Not everyone here believes that everyone was actors or that no one died. Not everyone here goes all the way out claiming unreasonable claims. As a matter of fact most are just searching themselves to find the truth. If no one will answer these numerous questions then yes it puts thoughts in peoples minds!!! If this is what you all are claiming to be all the answers I would suggest you just STFU!! Thank You and Have A Great Day!!

This thread should be pinned on GLP. Even if people think the ideas in it are wrong -- that the answers suggested are wrong -- the one-sided approach, the presumption of conspiracy, leads to false interpretation of events and easily allows manipulation. GLP should encourage both sides of interpretation if it wants truth.

I think most people here would love to see someone answer some of the endless questions. Instead when they come all we hear is how we are mad lunatics and we should be ashamed of ourselves for even dare asking such questions. With that said though I would ABSOLUTELY LOVE THEM TO PLEASE ANSWER some of the questions. I think if they looked at this with an open mind also and just thought about all the endless inconsistencies then they maybe also sitting there going hhhhmmmmmm....... Or is that what they are afraid of??

Ok OP let me clear this up for you right now. Specificly the whole "grieving differently" part.
While it is true that people can grieve differently, that is not the point, it's the point that all people related to the subject, all grieved the same way.
-2/10 try harder OP

No, they didn't all act the same. You are reading into them your own projections.
