This is circular reasoning, that falsely believes that an absence of evidence is evidence of absence. More inanely .. you apparently believe that people engaged in criminal activity ... which fraud is ... would for some strange reason that you have failed to explain, would naturally confess. I think that is a silly argument, regardless of how many people are involved. Would you expect the chances to increase that a criminal would confess to robbing the bank just because there were a total of 100 or 1000 robbers involved in the robbery, rather than one of two? Why would you expect people engaged in criminal activity to come forward and admit their participation? That makes no sense, if you'd simply THINK.

First, your entire argument relies on the assumption that there were real victims and real families of victims. Without that assumption, you have no argument at all. Problem with this is, there is no hard evidence that proves that to be true ... in fact, of the limited number of alleged victims parents that have agreed to be interviewed, none of them have appeared overly credible, while some have shown to be extremely suspect, such as Robbie Parker, who's alleged daughter Emilie is said to have been murdered. His behavior is what you ought to consider atrocious, not people questioning Mr. Smiles and Laughter, who delivers a prepared written statement to the press about his daughter, the day after her alleged murder .. and even worse than that, the man who created a memorial page accepting donations on the very same day of the alleged murder!! What legitimate parent who's child was actually brutally murdered would think ... hmmm ... maybe I should create a memorial web page today that can accept financial donations? Does this appear to be the actions of a distraught and grieving father? I don't think so. OF course, we also have Emilie's aunt who, remarking to the press said Emilie was an inspiration to her big sisters? Big sisters? Emilie's two sisters are younger, not older. Just a slip of the tongue you say? Just confused due to the stress of the moment? Well, that doesn't explain dad's smiles and laughter just seconds before he shifted into the distraught grieving dad routine for his press conference which he read from a prepared statement. And it doesn't explain the two photoshopped family portraits of the lovely Parker family ... which has Emilie conveniently situated to the perimeter of the shots, which would be an easier task for adding her in to an existing photo of Mom, Dad, and the two sisters who are huddled together, with Emilie off to one side.

Your belief that for a conspiracy to work would require 20 sets of parents .... blah, blah, blah, but there were 26 alleged victims, not just 20, and one might think that the 6 adults also have families too, right? Well, tell me .... and the list below is provided for your assignment ... tell us of those 26 families, how many have actually given interviews? The answer is, the vast majority have granted no interviews, so you don't even have a face to associate with most of the name on that list. You have a list of names ... that's it.

The reality is, and this is the complete reverse of your form of backward logic, I don't need to prove that all 26 alleged victims are phony ... all I need to do is prove ONE is. Then we must assume the rest are too. That's how REAL LOGIC works .... you do not need to prove every claim is a lie ... just one fraudulent claim ... and the entire story then falls apart COMPLETELY.

Here's your list of victims .... now show me some irrefutable evidence that any of them actually existed, and or were actually murdered on December 14th. Just so you understand, I don't consider media and authorities unsubstantiated claims as constituting hard evidence.

Charlotte Bacon, 6, Daniel Barden, 7, Olivia Engel, 6, Josephine Gay, 7, Ana Marquez-Greene, 6, Dylan Hockley, 6, Madeline Hsu, 6, Catherine Hubbard, 6, Chase Kowalski, 7, Jesse Lewis, 6, James Mattioli, 6, Grace McDonnell, 7, Emilie Parker, 6, Jack Pinto, 6, Noah Pozner, 6

You cannot set the inconsistencies aside ... nor can you dismiss them for lack of a reason for why they exist. You don't need to know WHY someone might lie in order to realize that they did. This is another glaring example of totally failed logic.

What about 20 sets of actors, pretending that 20 random photos taken from a missing child data base are their beloved children? Does that possibility not change your entire argument to irrelevance? Why, yes, it would.

Oh, brilliant .... when the perpetrators confess, you'll consider it?

This does not apply to the Government as statutory person.

Statutory person-hoods have no Constitutional protections, only Constitutional restrictions.

Government only has power.

It does not have rights.

There's a difference.

For example, and I'll have to paraphrase since you actually cannot cut and paste text from snopes, they claim that the car Adam Lanza drove to the scene of the crime, which was subsequently identified as registered to a Christopher Rodia, was just a simple mix up, because Rodia was actually involved in a separate traffic stop precisely at the same exact moment that the Police at Sandy Hook elementary radioed in the license plate of the black honda that Lanza drove to the school. They go on to claim that the black honda is actually registered to a "relative" of Adam Lanza, and not Christopher Rodia, though they don't actually bother to say who this "relative" is, which at a minimum, is very lazy journalism, but in reality, it's just pure manure. They continue by saying that Christopher Rodia has no connection to the crime or the car, and that he was driving another car in another town at the time.

I have a problem with that, and so should anyone with an IQ larger than their shoe size. First, the audio of the exchange of information is clear, and the dispatch person recites back the license plate number along with naming Rodia as the registered owner, and you can hear the plate number called out as you look at a picture of the car with the plate number clearly readable. There was no confusion, but there is a clear attempt to create confusion, by Snopes.

Furthermore, aside the unlikely event of this crosstalk confusion with receiving information from another traffic stop at precisely the same moment in time that the Sandy Hook request was issued, becomes that much less believable considering the claim that Rodia was driving another car in another town at the time of the Sandy Hook event. So now we must also believe that the Police in two separate towns share the same Police frequency, and must sift through each other's radio traffic? Or we must do as you do, and ignore these little minor inconveniences to the official story, and believe it anyway. But, just how absurd must absurd get before some of you people have a bit of electrical activity occurring between your ears? Well, one previous poster said it best ... he'll believe there is a conspiracy as soon as the conspirators come forward and confess! Sadly, I think some of you people wouldn't even consider a confession as good evidence.

There are several other examples of equally absurd debunking failures in this Snopes piece, but then again, this crap is only geared toward the dim bulbs that believed the official story to begin with, so I guess they figure it doesn't really need to pass any big tests of credibility, considering the target audience.

But just out of morbid curiosity ... let me ask you ... did you even bother to read this tripe? Or are you simply thick enough to actually read it and believe it too?

Too bad you won't apply that same standard to the infamous Adam Lanza, or his mother that you all immediately began crucifying as a prepper and a gun nut!

Birth certificates. Death certificates. The many many people who knew the victims. I mean the 52 year old alone had an existence for 52 years. You can't just create these "fake" victims out of thin air. These people, the children and the murdered teachers, existed, and I think it's atrocious and freakish that you question their very existence. What are you going to say about Adam Lanza? He too didn't exist? There are teachers who taught him, former classmates who knew him, ---and you are trying to suggest he too never existed? All those people who say they knew him are lying? All the people who used to work with Lanza's mother are lying?

Yes they want you to believe that over 100 people involved (don't forget the paramedics, the police, the firefighters/first responders, and the city's leaders) along with the victims, their families, and their extended families and friends, were in on this "conspiracy".


It took 2 people to expose Watergate, at a time when there was no such thing as the internet.

It's the same BS thinking that 9/11 truthers believed in. They honestly think that over 10,000 people (that is the number of people that would have been needed to pull off what happened on 9/11) would keep silent after witnessing 3000 people die.

It's idiotic

Also this idea that people aren't expressing their grief properly comes from watching too much TV. You can always tell when you're watching a soap opera, or a movie, because people are acting hysterical with grief. It seems like when they show real victims of horrible events, or real relatives of murder victims, they are hardly ever acting like that, most people are actually quite self-contained, at least in front of news cameras. In fact the few times I've seen someone on the news be all histrionic with grief, it's often instances like Susan Smith, who murdered her children--- they're acting.
