Sandy Hook conspiracy watch: Four years after the massacre, lunatic ravings become even more sinister
(Credit: Reuters/Eric Thayer)
It’s been four years since a deranged young man in Newtown, Connecticut, murdered his mother and then went on a killing rampage at Sandy Hook Elementary School, where he used a semiautomatic rifle to take the lives of 20 children and six adult teachers before committing suicide. It stands out as a landmark tragedy: One of the deadliest mass shootings the country has ever seen, its already incomprehensible horror magnified by the youth of the victims, most of whom were in first grade.
No clear motive for the slaughter has ever been established, and explanations about why it happened tend to begin and end with the perpetrator’s troubled family life and history of mental health problems. But even if the “why” remains elusive, the bloody reality of what happened in Newtown still shocks and challenges us.
In the intervening years, though, a persistent and malicious community of conspiracy theorists has done everything in its power to cast doubt on that reality and dispute that the Sandy Hook Elementary massacre ever took place. It was a hoax, the theory goes, perpetrated by the government to try and roll back gun rights. The victims, they say, are just actors, and all the relevant documents are forgeries.
This heartless agitation, once confined to fringe websites and disreputable talk-radio chatter, is now metastasizing into something much more sinister.
Just last week, the Department of Justice announced that charges had been filed against a Florida woman who apparently made death threats against a parent of one of the Sandy Hook victims. The woman’s belief “that the school shooting was a hoax and never happened allegedly motivated her to make the charged threats,” the DOJ release states. The threats were made against Lenny Pozner, whose murdered son, Noah, became a central focus of Sandy Hook conspiracy theory.
This is a worrisome development, made all the more unsettling by the fact that it coincided with another example of conspiracy-driven criminality: the North Carolina man who fired a gun inside a Washington pizzeria while “investigating” bogus reports that a Hillary Clinton-linked child sex ring was operating in its basement. This outlandish accusation against Clinton has also been embraced by one of the senior advisers to the incoming president, which forces us to consider how the rankest forms of conspiracy theory will impact our lives in the years to come.
To get a sense of how Sandy Hook hoaxes and other conspiracy theories start, endure and spread, let’s take a quick dip into the world of talk radio host Alex Jones. He’s one of the leading voices in the Sandy Hook “truth” movement, and he was singled out by Hillary Clinton during a campaign speech for his ties to Donald Trump and for saying that the Newtown massacre was “synthetic” and “manufactured.”
I was curious to see what Jones would have to say on the anniversary of the massacre, but it turns out that he already issued his “final statement” on Sandy Hook nearly a month ago. Offering himself as a victim of unfair media attacks, Jones explained his position on the shooting. “I will present to you the questions, and I’m going to be quite frank, I don’t know what really happened,” he said. “I know there are real mass shootings, I know people lose children. I’m a father. It hurts my heart. So I don’t know what the truth is. All I know is the official story of Sandy Hook has more holes in it than Swiss cheese.”

Alex Jones Scrubs Pizzagate Content; Complaint Reveals New Tie Connecting Shooter To Jones
Blog ››› December 13, 2016 3:07 PM EST ››› ERIC HANANOKI
Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones is scrubbing online content pushing the false and dangerous conspiracy theory that Hillary Clinton’s campaign trafficked children through a D.C. pizzeria. A man who recently entered the pizzeria with a rifle and fired shots reportedly shared a piece of Jones’ content before the shooting; the video he shared is still on the website.
Jones is a radio host who has claimed that the government perpetrated the 9/11 attacks and the tragedies at Columbine, Oklahoma City, Sandy Hook, and the Boston Marathon. Jones has also repeatedly accused the Clintons of murder. He has been elevated from the fringes to the mainstream by President-elect Donald Trump, who appeared on his show and praised his “amazing” reputation. Trump adviser Roger Stone is also a regular Jones guest and contributor.
Jones and his Infowars website have promoted the false conspiracy theory dubbed "pizzagate," which alleges that top Clinton associates such as campaign manager John Podesta are trafficking children through the Comet Ping Pong restaurant.
The false claims took a dangerous turn when Edgar Maddison Welch fired an assault rifle inside the pizzeria because he was trying to “self-investigate” the conspiracy theory. FBI special agent Justin Holgate stated in a criminal complaint that Welch said he sent a video on the night of December 1 with the message “Watch PIZZAGATE: The Bigger Picture on YouTube” to a friend before the shooting:
“Pizzagate: The Bigger Picture” is the headline Infowars used for a December 1 article -- still online -- promoting a video from Infowars producer Jon Bowne that pushes the pizzagate conspiracy theory. Jones tweeted the headline on December 1. The headline was also used on YouTube by a non-Infowars accounts to promote the Infowars video.
Welch also told The New York Times that he listens to Jones, and he reportedly liked Infowars on Facebook.
Jones and Infowars appear to be scrubbing commentary about pizzagate. Jones’ YouTube channel posted a November 23 video headlined “Pizzagate Is Real: Something Is Going On, But What?” The video has since “been removed by the user,” though it’s not clear when.
The video has been re-uploaded or re-upped by other toxic conspiracy theorists (some of whom speculated about why Jones deleted it). During the video, Jon Bowne states that Clinton allies are “using a code to communicate child sex trafficking as casually as ordering a pizza.” The video then states that Comet Ping Pong “may be competing for the lucrative Washington, D.C., pedophile market right out in the open.”
Jones promoted the video on his Facebook account but has since deleted the post. Infowars also deleted a November 27 article by Bowne that promoted the video.
While Jones has removed content related to pizzagate, his website still contains false articles promoting the conspiracy theory. For instance, Kit Daniels posted a November 5 piece headlined “Law Enforcement Begs World: Read Hillary Emails To Find Child Rape Evidence; Hillary Linked To Child Sex Ring, Emails Suggest.” The article suggested that John Podesta was potentially involved in “child molestation” and “child pornography” because his hacked email account contained “strange” references to “pizza”

How I begged my parents for a Nintendo console, and then once I got it, I played it nonstop for hours at a time. How angry I would get when they would attempt to curtail my use. How socializing with friends revolved around various video game consoles . . . until we discovered chemical narcotics. And then we combined the two. Video-games and drugs. Not exactly a winning combination.
So, what does the mother do when her son acts out. She immediately drags him to the "authorities," who have every incentive to drag treatment out as long as possible so they maximize billing, if not the parents, then the insurance company, or the state. As soon as you drug someone, without ANY understanding of the underlying causes for the symptoms, you then alter their neurochemistry, thus complicating the issue. It's like clubbing someone over the head as they wander through a labyrinth because you think the problem is that they're wandering, or that they're frustrated at wandering and not getting anywhere, so you want a quick fix. All you do is add another layer of complexity.
And of course HIS behavior is problematized.
What about the insanity of forcing children to where uniforms or attend schools they hate while simultaneously gaslighting them by telling them they live in a free country with rights, yet controlling every fucking aspect of every fucking thing they do? And then pretending like they have some disorder because they act out.
