THESE PEOPLE DON'T LOOK THE SAME! They might be the same "type" -- white, long brown hair, blah blah blah. There are just so many combinations you can have. But that doesn't make them identical by a long shot. Are you kidding me?
My daughter thinks Mark Wahlberg and Matt Damon look alike. I don't. But HEY--They both speak with a Boston accent and come from that area--so maybe they really ARE the same person! {{JARRING CHORD}}

Here in Wisconsin we had a joke for a long time about how much Brett Favre and Geoff Jenkins looked alike.
Separated at birth? Or some vast conspiracy and Brett Favre/Geoff Jenkins was the greatest two sports athlete of all time?
These revolving-door "actresses" who appear in a film or two and maybe a few supermarket magazine covers before they disappear to be replaced by lookalikes confuse the heck out of me. I can't tell them apart except by groupings--"The blonde ones". "The brunette ones", etc.
There are many reliable, ethical journalists out there. But some of us have to turn off the CNN, MSNBC, Fox, etc and start LOOKING for it and supporting it.
I find it interesting that you have not given sources.
Yes, of course my comment was about mainstream media. I was commenting on how their bad journalism affects the public and hurts society.
When my father died - at a very young age - we were all gathered at his home for 3 days for the funeral routines. There were times of silliness, raucous laughter and smiles. Not all of this even had a lick to do with remembering my father. Some of it was just us cousins goofing off (we were all in our 20s). Then, in a private moment or even on a trip to the restroom the grief would pop up and I'd sob. So, to not only judge this man for his actions but use it as a basis for a conspiracy theory of massive proportions seems trite and not altogether founded in reality.
Yes, and I've offered no conspiracy theory, as you must know.
I have merely questioned his demeanor immediately following the murder of his daughter. Maybe it hadn't sunk in yet, maybe he's a Buddhist and understands the life cycle better than most - I don't know, I am questioning. It does look odd, no matter what the reason.
I know personally one of the families in the video in your link. They are grieving, and they are not actors. My parents live next door to the grandparents of the child. They, too, are still in extreme pain. The funeral that my parents went to was not fake.
My friend teaches there. She experienced everything firsthand. She's not an actor.
This conspiracy stuff has sickened me and has further caused anguish to the entire Sandy Hook, Newtown, Connecticut community.
Please stop.
Stop WHAT?
I never said that I agreed with this.
Boy, some of you people are really paranoid, so quick to judge.

Some movies that I watch are filmed in such a dark light and the women all have such a similar look, with long straight hair that I'm not sure who's doing what to whom. My husband seems able to keep track of them, though.
Will fools believe any conspiracy? I guess we have the answer already.
I think much of this problem stems from poor journalism. I also think once you have lack of trust of the government in one area, which is a big concern today, you are more inclined to believe other things as well. So government accountability and honesty plays into this.
The Soviet Union was full of this stuff before it fell. Before Hitler took over Germany was rife with conspiracy theories. They don't have to be true - there just has to be enough people believing in them.
I don't blame people for now questioning everything, especially those who are poorly educated. I blame those who are supposed to be professional and have ethics and standards for setting the stage for this.
