Best thing about the 1st amendment. It exposes the truth, the fools and those with enough integrity to say they were wrong.... Let the evidence speak for itself.

With the media these days, the entire truth never makes it off the edit room floor. then the lies really do spread about people on a manufactured lie, not just something misunderstood.

And you think Alex Jones is spouting the truth? That is laughable at the very least and makes me take you less credibly than before. He has lied and lies and lied again. He lied about Sandy Hook Elementary School, he lied about PizzaGate, he lied about Vegas, he lied about Parkland, where do his lies end and the truth begin?

Do you have faith in him? Is he a man of integrity and truth?

Would you trust him around your daughter?


I believe evidence and counter evidence.
I believe he has America's Constitution best interest in mind.
Sure he has more integrity than most.
Yes, I would trust him with my daughter. My daughter is armed.

The marketplace let’s you set up a stall. It doesn’t require shoppers to buy what you’re selling nor does it prohibit shoppers and other merchants from calling garbage out for being garbage until the seller gives up in frustration or runs out of cash to support his stall.

It is all about how effective you are.

Based on what? No really. Based on what? He does great damage to our countries common sense, and critical thinking.

Bwahahahha. He is a ACTOR. He has stated this. How would you know? I dont base my opinions of people on tv shows based upon their characters.

And if she wasn't? I mean thats kind of the point, interesting that you qualified this based upon her being armed. You be OK with her and him hanging out smoking weed and chilling if she had no gun?

In fairness, the same poster said he would not have a problem leaving his teenage daughter alone, unsupervised with Roy Moore.

My biggest enemy in the world is a multiple murderer who I testified against at his last death penalty trial. He has sworn to kill me. I've also been threatened by followers of Milo Yiannopoulos, a truly horrible group of folks.

Thus I am arguably then a better man then Alex Jones as those who oppose him tend to be those who value truth and facts.

If I use your argument.

This is perhaps the least self-aware, but most unintentionally hilarious posts in the history of this forum.

Someone who posts dozens of daily verifiably false thread topics thinks others are going to be exposed by the “truth”? Bwahahaha! A fool and the absence of integrity indeed! Go on BB! Pull the other leg!

Thank you for this. Seriously.

Who knew CNN was staging the scene and it came off as a staged event, not just the scene for the narrative they planned to push.

ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN & MSNBC Have now been caught numerous times since Sandy Hook, staging the scene.

Or will he go out and find the real people who did not kill anyone, and play golf with OJ?
He doesn't have to say it, or prove anything... he's entitled to voice his opinions, even if they are conjectures about what happened. It isn't defamatory to doubt whether something actually happened to someone, especially since the person it allegedly happened to is allegedly deceased anyway. What is the "standing" that these parents of alleged victims even have? What harm have they suffered? Which of them can demonstrate that anything that Alex Jones has ever said harmed their "reputation" in any way? Because that is the required element of defamation, not merely that a statement was untrue (if that can even be proven, which it cannot be), but that reputational harm was suffered.

That guy that was laughing his head off until the camera was rolling, then its the sad face and the tears...please, cmon on. That is the worst acting job I have ever seen.


The bottom line is, you don't know if these kids even exist...and there is no way for the average citizen to even verify whether they did or they didn't, or if anything actually happened at that school. What percentage of American citizens have ever even BEEN to Sandy Hook and seen that school? Let alone were present there to be able to witness anything?

Stop believing everything you see on TV. Its called a TV Show for a reason.

Its a show. Its not YOU seeing it. if YOU didn't see it, then YOU don't know, cannot know, if it happened or not.

That's the problem with propaganda...its usually very convincing...but in this case what is convincing is not evidence of the crime, but merely people TALKING about a crime. Where's the actual evidence of a crime?
