Best thread on the forums in the past few months.
This is what happens when people take absolutely shaky conspiracy theory's with little to no evidence too far. Leave this man alone. Leave Sandyhook alone. It was not some government planned agenda to ban military style assault weapons.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 975472 The criteria by which so many people judge a conspiracy theory on this web-site is ABSURD.
Since I've been on GLP , I have seen a conspiracy for EVERY....SINGLE THING. Every recent earthquake, every near by comet or asteroid that comes close to earth, every SINGLE mass shooting, pretty much ANYTHING that makes the NEWS, a great many of people on here immediately turn it into a conspiracy theory. Are people really THAT paranoid? Some of these individuals are ADULTS. I can understand a misguided child thinking that way, but a NON-Schizophrenic ADULT shouldn't jump to conclusions like that.
We all know that events that happen on the global level don't always get reported accurately on the news. We also know that in life, there are almost ALWAYS hidden agendas and hidden INTENTION behind things. However, when you blatantly and foolishly call EVERYTHING a conspiracy, it just goes to show you are PARANOID, and your paranoia actually makes you OBLIVIOUS to the TRUTH around you.
There is no "conspiracy" behind Sandy Hook. As someone else mentioned, the media just did a terrible job fact checking. Why? Because a story as big as Sandy Hook means they need to jump on it ASAP, every second wasted cost them ratings, etc. The media therefore , in their eagerness to break the story and keep updated on it and compete with other media sources, misquotes people, and gets some facts skewed.
This happens ALL THE TIME in media. I challenge any of you to watch the sitcom Newsroom, it will open your eyes to how things work in the media. Or, watch a documentary on how it works. Knowledge is power.
So again, I will say: THERE IS NO CONSPIRACY with sandy hook. Did some eager politicians, who have an agenda, JUMP on the Sandy Hook disaster, and use it for their own political gain? OF COURSE. Politicians have been doing this civilization started. Anything that grabs peoples attention, politicians will use to further their agenda.
however, Sandy Hook happened. The "conspiracy" isn't Sandy Hook.....it is the fact that the crisis is being used to further the agenda of some powerful people.
