Conspiracy theory professor says Sandy Hook shooting may not have happened
Daily Mail ^ | 1/8/13 | Daily Mail Reporter

Posted on 01/08/2013 9:51:11 AM PST by Nachum

Outrageous claims made by a professor who specializes in conspiracy theories are set to provoke grieving family by saying that the Sandy Hook massacre may not have happened at all.

James Tracy, a tenured history professor at Florida Atlantic University, wrote a lengthy post on his personal blog saying that the shooting that left 20 children and six teachers dead may not have happened the way that it is widely believed, if it happened at all.

Backed solely by the erroneous early reports filed during the midst of the horrendous incident, Mr Tracy 's claim is preying on the confusion of the tragic day.

'While it sounds like an outrageous claim, one is left to inquire whether the Sandy Hook shooting ever took place -- at least in the way law enforcement authorities and the nation's news media have described,' he has said.

The 47-year-old professor bases his outrageous claims largely on the flurry of conflicting media reports that were made as news of the shooting was released throughout the day on December 14.

Incompetence of the media is not a conspiracy, it is business as normal.

Outrageous claims ...

News media telling you how to think about things.

(They are supposed to tell you what other people say and do and just leave it at that. They deny their bias, but it's pretty darn blatant.)

I consider Emilie Parker to be a 21st century version of Schrodinger’s Cat — is she alive? is she dead? The answer has to be: it depends.

The 47-year-old professor

Why is his age relevant to this story?

I don’t know why anybody should be surprised that rumors fly while such events are in progress and immediately afterward, and that a very great many of them turn out to be inaccurate.

I believe in a slightly different context it’s called “the fog of war.”

In the MSM it’s made much worse by a desperate need to have something to report, and even more to be the first to report it. Any outlet that acted responsibly and reported that they really didn’t know yet would immediately lose its audience to one that was reporting something, even if it later turned out to be wrong.

He is well respected on infowars..

Meaning he is a nut case truther. Please make sure everyone knows this.

in 9/11 Truth, Inner Consciousness and the “Public Mind”

he opines

“With opinion polls indicating at least half of the public distrusting the official account of September 11th, the foremost basis for the “war on terror” “

which is farcical.

Over the weekend, I spoke with a friend whose co-worker is an aunt of one of the victims. Yes, those children were massacred. Yes, those children are still dead.

I blame the media and its rush to be the first to report the news. If it wasn't for all the erroneous reporting, we wouldn't have all these whacked conspiracy theories.

Not to worry. As soon as they have the complete story lined up the way they “need” it to line up they’ll give us the “real”story. (Slight cough of B*** S***! in to hand.) The msm, as usual, boned this whole thing up from the git-go. The old “I had my hand raised first” syndrome. In the end, everybody gets a trophy. Maybe even a pull-it-sir prize or two.

Molon labe.

He should have included pix of those children ‘murdered’ and were also at the “memorial” with obama.

I am sure the parents of the now buried children would differ.

Prolly went to an uber-liberal college/university. If he was older maybe the school he went to hadn’t gone liberal yet.

We saw bloody students, shattered glass, sheet covered bodies, etc. at Columbine. Here at Sandy Hook we see nothing. Why is that?

His nuttyness aside, his age is relevant to this because he is most certainly a white man. Specifying his age puts him in that oh-so-hated category of “The Barrack” in this country that have begun their tirade that “Old White Men” are this country’s new N word and a bunch of dinosaurs, who when they die off, will allow the Barack to realize their utopian version of Eden - except without the religion part.

Misinformation, no transparency, no official police reports.

Complete ad hominem.

You disagree with him about 9/11 and therefore he is wrong about everything under the sun.
