"Alex Jones, the conspiracy theorist who hosts the right-wing commentary website Infowars, was found legally responsible in two lawsuits for damages caused by his claims surrounding the 2012 Sandy Hook school mass shooting, according to court documents released Thursday. Judge Maya Guerra Gamble issued default judgments on Monday against Jones and his outlet for not complying with court orders to provide information -- the rulings effectively mean that Jones lost the cases by default. An attorney for the parents told CNN in a written statement: "Mr. Jones was given ample opportunity to take these lawsuits seriously and obey the rule of law. He chose not to do so, and now he will face the consequences for that decision."
Jones falsely claimed that the December 2012 shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, was a "giant hoax" carried out by crisis actors on behalf of people who oppose the Second Amendment. The shooter killed 26 people at the school -- 20 of whom were young children -- before killing himself."
First of all, everyone knows deep down that Alex Jones was just being sarcastic when he said Sandy Hook was a false flag carried out by Obama and the Deep State to take away our 2nd amendment rights.......why can't these people just learn to laugh and relax? Yea their kids were killed; but if you can't learn to laugh about it, how are you going to move on? You definitely don't move on or get closure by attacking this man's 1st amendment rights..He already admitted in court years ago that he is mostly full of shit and was just playing a character....Let's be honest, if your kids were murdered in a mass shooting - wouldn't you feel a little bit better knowing someone was clever enough to make millions off your pain and suffering by claiming it was a fake shooting staged by the government?
