RE: sandy hook not an operating school? video.....

Good on you for reassessing your evidence, it's important to put things in perspective.

I too had a suspicion that Sandy hook was not an operating school for some period prior to the fake shooting, it certainly didn't have hundreds of students on the day of the "shooting", but I can't find enough evidence to make a convincing case. I find some of the evidence compelling that it was a real school, and some compelling that it wasn't.

Some weakish evidence is...

*Discrepancies over whether it should be Dickenson or Dickinson Dr.


*Figures of student numbers ranging from 450 (wiki) to nearly 700 from the principal, this is a huge discrepancy where there should be no confusion. (it's hard to reference this because they have info on the new school now)


*Some of the photos look staged, like this one which shows a courtyard with a few students in it, the courtyard should either be full(recess) or empty(class time), but more damning is the little tree stumps at the bottom of the photo, that is never allowed in schools because it's a trip hazard.

*If you go to google satellite maps you will see a tarp covering something on the paved area between the playground and the school...

..Then if you look at videos of the "shooting" you will see the tarp is still there, this is another trip hazard that is just not allowed, if there are repairs going on then it should be roped off, and if it is a functioning school then it would be very unusual to have a tarp covering a footpath area for a long period.(I don't have time to reference a vid)


*The drill tweeted by the principal is a completely nonsensical one, if Sandy Hook was a real school it should have had a proper evacuation procedure. We're told it is of the annual evacuation drill, but if we look at where the children are assembled we see they are outside the fire station (not the main building but the separate building a bit further down dickinson (or dickenson) dr), I have searched all photo's extensively and this is the only building and area I find compatible, it has the pitched roof, the small hill in background, the ashphalt, and the upright posts outside the building.

The problem with the drill is that it is completely unrealistic to have a school evacuation drill where you not only have to walk small children hundreds of meters to the evacuation point, but also to get to the evacuation point the 600 children have to walk up the same road emergency vehicles will be racing down to get to the fire or other emergency (with not even a footpath). A proper evac procedure would never hinder emergency vehicles or put kids in danger from them.

So why are we being fed a photo of a completely fake drill scenario? Was it a practice drill specifically for the fake shooting?
