i can get in a ton of emails asking me to comment on the fire radio that has
covered on ten million views close to ten million views at the time that i am
taking this video about the sandy hook shooting being hoax people asking me to
discuss it
on our broadcast david packard show i really just don't think that this is
worthy of a of what would be kind of expensive segment on the show because
these conflicting theories
are constant but i'd you believe that it makes sense to go through piece by piece
on the youtube video just a look at what we're what we're looking at here
now the problem with the videos like uh... allot of the ones that are
circulating claiming that sandy hook
newtown connecticut shooting was a hoax in that was planned in some way
that those time information that you
a lot of it individually is really weak and by itself wouldn't mean much but
people see
well there's thirty minutes or forty minutes or fifteen minutes of stuff here
there must be something to it without analyzing it piece by piece
and sing that there's no correlation between all the aspects of it and that
it makes no sense broadly
the conspiracy theorists in this particular case have to be one of two
basic goals number one
they're driven by wanting to prevent
gun control they allege that the administration
must've created the massacre
to have a pretext under which today handguns that is one reason to create
these
conspiracy cat videos number two in this case
is people really are comfortable
believing that they live in a world
things get out of control like this and happen it's more palatable to believe
that the government would do it and that it is actually completely controlled
rather than believing well
somethings are completely out of control
part one of the video focuses on the second shooter and they put evidence
evidence in there
which includes individuals immediately after the shooting saying that they saw
another individual
and somebody who is handcuffed
deadlocks panelists earlier
stanley handcuffs he walked biases if he didn't do it was a grown man grown
entities in the front of please go to bed now
so i mean heating up a time
legacy not just an income
and he walked past and looked into pant sizes that i didn't do it
house address hakim appearance with it
dark jacket and also as evidence we see
video of
uh... an individual api helicopter video of an individual that appears to be on
the ground prone to out as the term is
who that is put into handcuffs
and then later as seen in the
front of a police vehicle now the l_a_ times is already looked at this
they published an article identifying the man
as chris manfred tonia his daughter
attends attended sandy hook school
he was trying to get to his daughter he ran around the school and he was
handcuffed briefly
as you walk it by the individuals who later say they saw someone in handcuffs
walked by saying i didn't do it
he said if i didn't do it and and some say the fact that he was in the front of
the police car is proof that he was some kind of inside operative
instead it seems police quickly realized he was in a threat the situation was
still not secure
they put him in the front of the police car
uh... and and and you know this is that we got this information
in the heat of the moment nobody who this guy was
uh... part toured other part of the of of these videos seems to look at the gun
discrepancy
the controversy is there's video of the medical examiner saying the victims he
examined
were all killed
by the rifle by the assault rifle
division of the prosecution has really been initiated
well all the ones that i know that this will work hard for the world one one
mom
question was what caliber would usually it's and i know a lot there'll be
mansions
and then we're showing the local police
polling what seems to be a rifle from the trunk of the shooters car totally
find along i dont some tight in the trunk of the black vehicle that cordoned
off happy elementary four all day long debate helicopter of a car belonged
predicted inc dot back
and the question is where the second
everybody was shot with the rifle
and handguns were found in the school but the rifle was in the trunk something
doesn't make sense here that must have been some other shooter with a rifle
or some such other conspiracy this has already been explained c_n_n_ and a
number of other media outlets have indicated that adam lands are brought
three weapons inside sandy hook school he left the fourth in the car the ones
he brought into the school where the a_a_r_p_ keen rifle and two handguns
there was a shotgun
which was left in the vehicle this is confusion between rightful and shotgun
the shotgun was in the car
the rifle was in the school and was indeed the weapon used
uh... on according to the medical examiner all the victims that he
examined
let's go to another aspect of this conspiracy theory
another aspect is the line and the up the allegedly lying
father ok now why was he allegedly lying about being in grieving father because
he was
laughing
first and then at the time of the press conference started
heat seem to just suddenly start crying is being called actor
somebody who is pretending to be grieving susan
memorial among people hold melissa
hotmail dot
behaving poorly built up
behavior today
complaining
ability listened intently
we talked about this part of one thing though and that
piece of video first came out
to say
anyone
has expertise in evaluating how a grieving father
child was just shot to death
innate worldwide tragedy and to say that the behavior is indicative
of some kind of
broad is completely absurd i don't know how i'd be acting
if this was my child
it doesn't seem like i would be laughing from being happy
but might i be laughing from nerves
might i be laughing as some kind of automatic response before i speak to
national media about this
the theory that this is evidence of fraud is totally absurd
let's go to another aspect emily part
there it is part of their thereof factions would say
emily parker one of the supposedly victims the daughter of this individual
who is an actor
uh... isn't dead
the video that has been circulating claims she isn't dead but that the
parents are so done that they brought out the wrong sister because she hadn't
changed her clothes because she was supposed to be kind of put away
because that part of the the conspiracy was over
for this type of picture with president obama
uh... this is obviously absurd there's a lot of evidence that it's actually
somebody else the sisters look
uh... they re very similar the idea that we're going to base this theory of fraud
on that again is completely absurd
there's a lot of other aspects here the last one i want to touch on it is that
the face book page for donations for one of the victims
was created before the shooting even took place meaning everybody knew the
shooting was going to happen
uh... first of all
if this was a conspiracy at the highest level don't you think
it would be obvious that you don't create
the face book page until after the event has happened do we really think
conspiracy
uh... co-conspirators are going to be so stupid that they really have that
basically detail cover putting that aside
uh... when you actually look at what happened
it turns out that this was a page that was previously created
and then we need to be a memorial for one of the victims
and uh... a lot of people claimed this isn't possible
it just google that it's been widely shown that this is possible in face book
does
work this way
so what we have here is most of these conspiracy theories
art neither people who have a very specific agenda and you can tell that
this exists because you keep hearing about nine eleven in the london bombing
than other presumably unrelated events
anytime one large tragic event occurs a lot of conspiracy theorists try to
gather all the media reports
pick and choose what does it make sense taking out of context often
citing early and inaccurate reports which are always inaccurate when we have
a breaking new situation
and then connected to other things
to try to create some broader conspiratorial narrative
in the last parking is that the saddest part is
as i mentioned in this video
a lot of people
would rather
a lot of these things be conspiracies
then be out of control unpredictable situations which would presumably have
very little means of preventing completely
because that is far more scary too many people
thinking that it's just the government that is planned all of this stuff
everything went off
as the government plans
