No fighting.... we're all adults here! Just watch and discuss. Warning: it is long! I had to watch it in two parts.

I actually watched the video this morning.  I do think that the media reports "news" faster than it actually recieves all the facts so I can really see how the news reports can be incorrect.  It not being true is a double edged sword.  If the shooting happened then its a tragedy and if it didnt, then it is a tragedy that we can all be lied to to plainly.

A friend's daughter went to Sandy Hook,  here's what she had to say after seeing all the conspiracy theory stuff:

"Really? Dude, get a f-ing life."

Do I believe that some sh!t is covered up. Yes. The FB pages being created early is very interesting. Like PP said, either way it shows we live in a sad world.

I 100% agree with both of you!! There are a lot of oddities in this situation, but I think that it's really very telling of our media.

I watched it a couple of days ago and it gave me chills. It left me speechless. What really got me was Emilie Parker's dad laughing and then acting like he was sad. It honestly really did look so fake. I just don't get it.

There are so many odd things about some of the things that went on.

As PP said, if the shooting really did happen, it was horrible and no one should have to endure that pain...and if it didn't, then that is almost just as sad that someone could stage that.

I don't trust the govn't as far as I can throw them...As horrible as it would be, I wouldn't put it past them to do something like that.

It was a youtube video showing some idiosyncrasies in the Sandy Hook situation. Kind of makes you stop and think about how much the media controls what we see as news.... or if the Sandy Hook shooting really happened, if you buy into the video.

I do agree that the media is exploiting the situation and that there are some things that are controversial and questionable in the media, but I can tell you with 100 certainty that the shooting did happen. I grew up 10 mins from Newtown and personally know three children who were in Sandy Hook that day. Their stories and accounts of what happened are heartbreaking.
