Man who helped Sandy Hook kids is harassed by conspiracy theorists
Yahoo News ^ | 1/15/2013 | Yahoo News

A man who found six children in his driveway in Newtown, Conn., after their teacher had been shot and killed in last month's school massacre has become the target of conspiracy theorists who believe the shootings were staged.

“I don’t know what to do,” Gene Rosen told Salon.com. “I’m getting hang-up calls, I’m getting some calls, I’m getting emails with, not direct threats, but accusations that I’m lying, that I’m a crisis actor, ‘How much am I being paid?'”

Don’t let yourself get schmuckered by snopes; they are one of the least reliable sites on the web. They have fabricated so many “debunkings” that just the fact that they have weighed in tends to confirm that it is true.

I didn’t link to Snopes. I linked to a set of Google search results for “Sandy Hook” shooting, date-limited to results prior to the shooting. There are many results, some with “dates” as early as June. The fact that Snopes made the same point does not negate the fact that the Google search results clearly demonstrate the inaccuracy of the “datres” next to each result.

Unless you think that all of the other results (including YouTube videos with footage from the day of the shooting) were also prepared before the shooting....

There was no 2nd black t-shirt guy. They found a guy chopping wood near the school.

You guys will believe anything.

Mike Adams is highly reliable.

1. Even if this Mike Adams guy is "highly reliable", reliable != verified.

2. You continue to ignore evidence that the "dates" associated with Google search results are highly inaccurate, and prove nothing. Take a look here:

Are you telling me that there were videos about the Sandy Hook shooting uploaded to YouTube months before the shooting??

Is that the guy in the camo pants? I was trying to figure out who the guy was that they led away in handcuffs and was telling people, "I didn't do it", as he was led away. All this other stuff is 9/11 InfoWars fluff, like the premature Facebook page.

The only other thing that's weird is the attitude of some of the parents of the slain kids. But then again, I think everyone from New England is a little weird.

Really? Who?

They arrested a guy in camo pants and black jacket - I had said t-shirt in error - and then let him go. Who was THAT guy?

There's footage of the police chasing this guy past the school buildings and into the woods and arresting him. I provided a link to the footage. You either did not look at it or you are just making things up.

They didn’t show him being arrested. They showed him being detained. I’m at Virginia Tech. Police detained several people during the shooting in 2007. None were arrested.

OMG... Google search results also "confirm" that people on the interwebz knew about Hurricane Sandy 3 whole weeks before it came into existence!!! Why is nobody questioning why google owns a secret time machine???

“They are no more outrageous than the lies, the deceit and the denial of the truth that officials and the press have “reported” to us.”

What are you talking about? The conspiracy nuts are questioning the very existence of murder victims, and calling the grieving families “paid actors”. That is extremely outrageous, morally shameful stuff. Show me something equally outrageous that was intentionally and maliciously reported by the media about this incident.

I don't know. How many times have you gone on nationwide television shortly after your child was murdered? You seem to be an authority on these things, so why don't you establish your bona fides?

They showed him being detained.

They showed who? Who did they chase past the school buildings and into the woods? (Which you claimed didn't happen, but video shows otherwise) That was my original question.

Who was THAT guy? Simple question. Do you know or not?

If you are detained and released, they usually do not give your name unless it was previously released. You don’t want to see “Sirius Lee was detained for soliciting a minor but later released”.

You’re not distinguishing between dates that were posted in the articles that came from an inaccurate system date, and the logging date in the google cache.

I don’t know if you are doing this deliberately to deceive, or simply by ignorance, so I won’t call you a troll (yet).

Conspiracy is the mode of choice for accomplishing anything in this twisted country. Conspiracy is the rule, and honesty is the rare exception, especially in politics.

The screenshot I posted was based on a search for "'sandy hook' shooting", limited to articles posted (that is, articles with a logging date in google) prior to December 14. The screenshot posted by Mike Adams here highlights the same type of date as the screenshot I posted:

And yet, you still argue that Mike Adams' screenshot is proof of some massive conspiracy, while mine shows nothing.
