While most conspiracy theorists don’t have saliva dripping from the sides of their mouth, a huge number of them are just as sub-human and cold-hearted as the Sandy Hook hoaxers. For all conspiracy theorists, notice who some of your bed-mates are.
Within days
after a crazed shooter murdered twenty children and six adults at Sandy Hook
Elementary School in Newton, Connecticut on December 14, 2012, conspiracy
theorists began circling their prey. The internet was rife with views that the
massacre was actually carried out not by the identified shooter but by New
World Order global elitists whose aim was to take away guns and basic rights
and freedoms. Here are just a few examples of the hoaxer’s cruelty:
---- A good
summary of the theories is that “a powerful force …. staged the shooting, with
the assistance of paid ‘crisis actors,’ ….
other Sandy Hook families, and countless Newton residents, government
officials, and media outlets.” All hoaxers either don’t believe the kids ever
existed or were “living in an elaborate witness-protection program.”
----
Conspiracy theorists immediately swamped local Newton and state officials with
late night anonymous phone calls to their homes asking questions like: “Why
were there no trauma helicopters?”
----One man
traveled from Virginia to Newton, robbed playground signs memorializing two of
the children, then phoned their parents saying they shouldn’t be upset because
their kids were fictional characters both part of a conspiracy.
---- In
November of 2015, a memorial run took place for one of the Sandy Hook teachers,
Vicki Soto. A Brooklyn man named Matthew Mills walked up to Soto’s sister and
“demanded that she tell him whether a family photo had been Photo-shopped to
include Vicki, whom he believed didn’t exist.” (See citation below)
---- Within four
weeks after the massacre, a 30-minute YouTube video, viewed more than 10
million times, asked insane questions like “Wouldn’t frantic kids be a
difficult target to hit?”
---- Hoaxers
tried to delegitimize the identity of one grieving mother, Veronique Pozner. They
“quickly scoured family photos on Veronique’s online accounts and began
dissecting them for odd shadows or strange poses, suggesting that she had been
inserted into the family via Photoshop.”
---- Veronique
Pozner’s husband Lenny attempted to answer the hoaxers by releasing his son’s birth
and death certificates, as well as the medical examiner’s report. Without any
evidence the hoaxers deemed them counterfeits. He also joined a prominent
Facebook group of hoaxers to try to correct their suspicions. Some asked
sincere questions but many simply launched profanities or asked about theories
that had already been debunked.
---- Lenny Pozner
received many emails asking for “proof that anyone died at that dilapidated
dump of a school,” then adding: “One more thing before I close, your wife is
uglier than sin.” These trolls also posted on social media that he was a child
pornographer.
---- Most
mornings Pozner Googles his own and his son’s name, Noah, to see if he needs to
report to the authorities any maligning and slanderous videos or articles.
Twitter is frequently used to attack him. Some days he gets hundreds of tweets
labelling him as “Cyber Terrorist Child Predator Lenny Pozner.”
---- Hoaxers
compiled what became a widely viewed video montage of Pozner’s deceased son
Noah “set to a soundtrack of pornographic sounds”.
---- There
is nothing sacred for hoaxers. “At one point, they vigorously picked over the
details of Noah’s funeral. Prior to the ceremony, the family opened Noah’s
casket for a private viewing, which was reported in the news. It’s not an
unusual custom for Jewish families, but hoaxers alleged it was against the laws
of the religion, which somehow helped substantiate their claim that Noah wasn’t
real.”
---- Hoaxers
labelled the Sandy Hook families as treasonous government operatives. “To press
their case, they designated themselves authorities on the physiology of
grieving. The parents didn’t appear sad enough in interviews, they argued;
therefore, they could not possibly have lost children.” One leading hoaxer
claimed: “They aren’t behaving the way human beings would act.”
---- One
hoaxer, Tiffany Moser, had a change of mind and heart, left the onslaught of
viciousness by the theorists, and began to help Lenny Pozner and others who
were trying to defend the families and expose the hoaxers. Her former friends
immediately “turned on her, accusing her of being a part of the conspiracy all
along. Moser said they published her personal information, as they had done
with several Sandy Hook families, and reported her to Child Protective
Services.”
---- One of
the lead hoaxers, Wolfgang Halbig, a 70-year-old retired school administrator
in Florida, took it upon himself to email several parents and other people
involved. One email was sent to Sally Cox, the school’s nurse, who hid in a
closet, terrified, with her eyes closed. Halbig asked: “Why close your eyes
when you have seen blood before - you are a nurse?” He also published in social
media, web sites and blogs insensitive questions like: “Why did the parents of
the two children who died at the Danbury hospital not allow their children to
donate their organs to other children waiting for the gift of life?”
---- Because
of Halbig’s relentless harassment of the families and officials involved, the
Florida police visited his home and told him Connecticut police were going to
charge him with harassment if he didn’t stop. This catapulted him to celebrity
and hero in the sordid world of conspiracy theorists.
----Halbig’s
viciousness also went as far as propagating that one of the little girls was
not killed but living by another name with another family. The two girls can
seem to look alike “if you pick the right photograph from the right angle”. The
actual living girl – still living in Newton and now 12 years old – if she were
to Google her name, would get numerous results claiming she is in fact her
deceased schoolmate and part of the conspiracy.
---- In the New York magazine’s article on the Sandy
Hook hoaxers, the writer interviews Halbig, whose most convincing question he
believes is: “who ordered the port-a-potties? The vast conspiracy could be
cracked, Halbig believed, if he could prove that toilets brought to the scene
after the shooting had not been delivered by a local port-a-potty company
hoping to be useful during a tragedy but had instead been ordered in
preparation for a staged event. Halbig tends to fixate on minor details that he
imbues with outsize meaning, a strategy that also has the benefit of filling
his days with an endless number of leads to follow. He ignores countervailing
arguments and exaggerates both the evidence for his theories and his
credentials, which he regularly cites as qualification for his investigation.”
