Per his own attorney ~ he's the biggest troll that ever lived. Laughing at his followers all the way to his big, fat, bank account.

True. But we are talking about Alex Jones.

His genius lies in his ability to troll the gullible.

In that, he resembles someone else who grabs headlines these days.

Alex Jones is a man with a mission, however he is often his own worst enemy. If you watch him interview people he is at his best, but most of his content is personal monologue and he often goes off track and into meaningless errata. Watch his interviews, if he is doing a monologue when it starts to go south, it's usually best to stop watching. Some of what he has to discuss is good, and rational, other stuff, not so much. Over time he has been more right than wrong, which was unexpected by many.

Regardless of your personal political opinions, if you conduct a rigorous study of Alex Jones you will discover that he is definitely a sincere man, he professes to be a ‘Libertarian’ and a lover of humanity. There is no reason to disbelieve him on that score.

His comments on Sandy Hook give me reason enough to disbelieve him as a lover of Humanity.
