When Sandy Hook happened, I didn't assume anything. I didn't watch the news, I saw it on the TV in the break room at my job, and that was that. I didn't even know about Alex Jones' claims. I didn't find out about those until years later I think listening to Nick Dipaolo's podcast or something like that where the topic was brought up.
At the time I just dismissed that as Alex Jones being Alex Jones. To me it was in line with everything I thought about Alex Jones.
And the topic that I was hearing on the podcast was about Alex Jones admitting that Sandy Hook really happened. So again, I just went on, not knowing anything except what I'm telling you.
Then about 2 years ago, someone on this site linked to that Robbie video where he's laughing and getting himself into the "sad mode" to talk about Sandy Hook.
That was really weird. Then I saw parents with Anderson Cooper smiling and beaming talking about wanting to remember the good times and it was bizarre. I've seen true crime stuff where someone died 10 years ago and you can still see the pain the in the peoples eyes as they talk about it.
And yet these parents who lost a child like 3 days ago are smiling like they won the lottery.
As a rebuttal, I've heard it said that "people grieve differently" but I have never, ever seen anyone grieve like that. And what I'd actually say is that people cope differently; but the death of a loved one, you can always see the pain. Even when it's Chris Farley's brothers or friends talking about Chris 25 years later. They can joke about the funny moments, but you can see the sadness of loss in their eyes. When you look at these Sandy Hook parents, I see zero pain in their eyes including the recent ads they've been doing on YouTube asking to support banning guns. They're either complete sociopaths who feel nothing, or they did not lose their child. Those are the two conclusions I have to draw that could make sense of it. If only Robbie acted weird, I could chock it up to maybe he has autism and doesn't know how to act like a normal person in any given social situation or maybe he is a sociopath. But for all the parents to act without grief, to say that that is statistically improbable is an understatement.
And then I find out most of them have these acting backgrounds.
And then I find out that Google has purged like 90% of evidence people had about Sandy Hook.
And then Alex Jones gets sued for like a billion dollars.
But the thing is, when I type Sandy Hook hoax into a site like Rumble, the only videos I get are from people who act and talk about it like flat earthers do and all the evidence is trying to show that some college kid or high schooler, whatever the age now, looks like one of the sandy hooks kids. I'm not interested in that. People can look similar and that just makes it look like conspiracy theory.
To me the most compelling things are how much they show no signs of sadness, they're all on board using it to push for gun control and how they all seem fake.
I watched a video from people confronting the medicine board in Japan about people who died from the covid vax. And this was a year since some of these people died and the man was furiously angry and the women were uncontrollable and crying talking about their loved ones. The Japanese are more stoic people and that's how they talk a year on.
It all feels fake and yet, I can't find evidence for or against Sandy Hook other than how the parents act and what they're choosing to use the alleged indecent as a precedent for.
All the articles saying it's real TALK about Sandy Hook and how it's a dangerous conspiracy theory to deny it, but they don't bring receipts; only rhetoric....and on the other side those arguing in favor of it being a hoax they just show the parents acting weird and the ones who dive deep use uncompelling evidence and present things like flat earth-ers do; so it's really kind of annoying. Everything my eyes and gut perceives says that it's a hoax based on how people behave and how they're all on board the same agenda for propelling gun control legislation. You'd think one of the parents would be like "I don't want my child's death politicized". And yet instead they're all on board letting their children be turned into symbols for the democratic party. Again statistically improbable for all the parents to react in this way.
But all of this is my gut and my gut doesn't convince people.
I would prefer a breakdown for the for vs against from someone who's knowledgeable. Thank you for the time if you choose to do that.
I distinctly remember watching a news report of that "school shooting" right after it happened, where a camera was pointed at the school while a reporter was reporting on the event, with a steady stream of people walking from left to right in the background in front of the school (I first assumed it was parents, locals, and LEOs surveying the event). At the break in the segment, the news studio cut away from the ground camera to the helicopter camera overhead (detailing the entire school and the crowd), and showed that the crowd of people walking in front of the school was a big circular band of extras (like you'd see in a TV show or movie) walking in a giant circle around the school, like a big follow-the-leader in a big circle. Was wild to see, and how incompetent the news studio was to actually show it.
I also remember seeing several threads (don't remember where) arguing that the school this happened at had been shut down for a long time, with photos to prove it. The photos showed all kinds of dilapidated structures in dire need of repair, much of which was covered with mold and dirt, both inside and outside the school. There's no way a modern school would look like that, or be that dirty. It looked like a building that was in the mid stages of nature reclaiming it.
Do you have this video?
I tried looking for it, but can't find it, even using Yandex. It looks like the video was scrubbed. Every result I come across now shows this video:

This isn't what I saw. It was a different video, of a much larger building, with a big crowd circling the building.
Ah well, it's a shame there's no evidence to it. Would have been helpful to your claim.
Watch the video.
As the aerial zooms out you can clearly see the circular path they were walking.
