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?'”

I would believe your work, if you showed it. Instead, every time you’re asked for proof, you either ignore the request or deflect (e.g., saying that this has been ‘verified’ because Mike Adams is ‘reliable’).

If the Google cache shows a pre-shooting date for this site, it should be easy for you to post a screenshot. So, go ahead.

The "Wayback Machine doesn't have that page archived". As reported in #71, Google didn't spider the page for the first time until 12/14/2012 at 6:58pm, about nine hours after the shootings, and they admit the date they assigned to the page is wrong.

Like a good crackpot, you're making it up as you go along.

The Columbine killers destroyed their hard drives as well. Not really an unusual action.

Just catching up here, but perhaps you would like to explain that remark?

From a casual reader's take, it might stink to high heaven, like soneone destroying evidence. So you might explain why these whackos would just up and destroy hard drives if it is not "really" unusual?

Well, given that Dylan and Eric offed themselves at the conclusion of their massacre, one may legitimately doubt they gave a damn about the altitude of the stink resulting from their having destroyed evidence. After all, they destroyed a lot more than evidence that day — including, thankfully, themselves.

Perhaps they worried that stuff in their digital lives would conflict with the "legacy" they intended to leave. More likely, however, is that they just wanted to leave investigators with a tougher puzzle and conspiracy theorists with more unknowns on which to base crackpot theories.

As another commenter noted, wayback has no archive of the site. None. Not on December 11. Not anytime after. So, if you are going to continue to insist that there’s some elusive pre-shooting cached version of the site, you’re going to have to prove it.

Of course, you’re never actually going to show any evidence, because, like any good nutcase conspiracy theorist, you have none.

Idiot.

Google doesn’t ‘assign’ dates to pages. The dates come from the system clocks of the servers on which they reside.
