That kid is so fake it's ridiculous. And he just happened to be in an unrelated live news report a few months ago.

Has anyone here even heard or read the term "crisis actor" before these false accusations were made? It's a new one to me. Where did it come from, when was it first used, and in what situation?

Are Emma Gonzales and David Hogg crisis actors?


You do realize, by now, that a Florida legislative aide lost his job today( rightly so, IMHO) for being a part of this horrendously insensitive and despicable smear campaign? You know, falsely spreading mistruths in an effort to undermine the efforts of massacre survivors as they courageously try to raise awareness and try to be catalysts for sensible dialogue and safety.
Students speaking out and asking all legislators for their help.


And yes, before terminating the employment of this person, the facts were checked. The student activists are students at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. Real News! Confirmed. Verified.


Shame to spreading lies and hate. Why do these innocent and brave students make so many people afraid?

I don't recall the use of the term then, but Alex Jones, among others, claimed that the Sandy Hook shootings were fake, and the victims in the videos were actors.

It’s like “you don’t like saying something but go ahead and say it anyway, huh?

You really like beating on dead dogs too, don’t you?

NO CONSPIRACY THEORY, Matilda.

It's a recent phrase as far as I am aware. I first heard it in those loathsome attacks on the Sandy Hook parents.

WTF? Either he loves the spotlight or is he actually a crisis actor? Apparently, there is a video surfacing of him rehearsing lines.

Believe me, what happened is awful and we need reform to both guns and mental health. But if people are using crisis actors to push a political agenda, thats up.

Edit: Here is the video of him rehearsing lines.

I see your video link has been removed by CD, and quite rightly. The depths some people sink to, to attempt to damage the character of these brave kids is truly despicable. They should be ashamed of themselves.

Not necessarily. I was born and raised in a super liberal family, growing up in perhaps the most liberal city in the country. If anything, the obvious bias made me question things more.
