MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A jury in Wisconsin has awarded $450,000 to the father of a boy killed in the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting after he filed a defamation lawsuit against conspiracy theorist writers who claimed the massacre never happened.

I saw that same video and a few others. It appears all of those videos have been scrubbed from you tube. Wonder why?
What we all must remember about Dylan Roof, Sandy Hook, Ferguson, Trayvon Martin, Orlando, Fort Hood, San Bernardino, and many other massacres that Obama used to his benefit is that while they may or may not have been staged by the Obama Regime - they sure as hell benefitted the Regime.
Alinsky Rules. Use any crisis, manufactured or not, as a tool to further your agenda.
Sandy Hook was a classic case of governmental intervention to distort facts, confuse the sheeple and hide the truth of what happened in order to promote their gun grabbing agendas.
These Alex Jones types that are getting sued should have known better. They should have known they were being played as idiots by Obama’s Deep State.
What? You call yourself a “libertarian”?
That is exactly the type of free speech that is protected under the Constitution. Can you cite the section of the 1st amendment that says you’re free to speak your opinion unless it’s mean and hurts someone’s feeling.
I think LL might have omitted the /s.
But on Dresden, vaccinations, and Alex Jones, one never really knows here.
re: “What troubles me about the SH is no pictures of the inside after the shooting not one.”
What right do have to view gore when not one of your children were involved?
If he was defamed, he should sue.
Who says it was on cue? Having just lost a fantastic friend yesterday, I have found myself both laughing and crying, as I remember the amazing times we shared. I have reacted similarly when losing other close friends and family members. I remember the good times, and it brings a smile to my face, but moments later the grief and sorrow rush back in. I have no doubt that as we gather at my friends memorial service, there will be a LOT of laughing, a lot of hugs, and more than a little crying. It's how we cope. It's normal.
This case seems like a stretch. Probably jury was persuaded by emotional argument alone.
The Covington kids case is much better, but it lost first round.
I guess the sheeple believe the wapo over Alex Jones.
What right do have to view gore when not one of your children were involved?
Every right IMHO to know the truth, and not propaganda from the media. There are way too many conflicting stories and pictures not to mention the instant cleanup and virtual whitewash of inconvenient “facts” circling the drain. Do I trust media, NO. Do I trust the police to tell the truth, NO. Do I trust Government to give me a straight story? If it is going to be a huge story, and Legislation because of it, I expect to KNOW without a doubt that the story is TRUE. I fundamentally know that MAY not be the case.
re: “Every right IMHO to know the truth,”
Insufficient. Not a right enumerated in the Constitution.
Cite how you are harmed in not visually seeing gore at a killing site, versus a verbal or textual description of what happened and who was killed.
Disgusting ruling. Hurt feelings because someone doesn’t believe you isn’t damage.
He didn’t. He were reported that other people’s said that, and then discussed whether or not it was accurate.
Can you provide us with the film clip of Alex Jones saying that the father was a crisis actor, for the Sandy Hook never happened?
What? You can’t? Sounds like you had a little bit too much mainstream media
I don’t know. Why can’t he say anything, if there is the slightest chance it is true? If we are going to say you can’t say something which the media hasn’t published evidence of, you are giving the government and tech giants the power to decide what can and can’t be said about everything.
Has everybody here seen the video of the father laughing with other people, going to the podium, and doing what really did look like an actor’s preparation for producing an emotion? Even more interesting, go to youtube and try to find the video, which the powers that be have decided to hide. Here is the latest post:

The guy could be legit, I’ve learned to not assume I know the entire truth about anything lately. But that looked weird as hell, and the tech giants have taken measures to hide it.
I’d say let everyone make every case, and let the people decide. This looks to me like a great way to make sure no sheep speak out too loudly with ideas which could be controversial.
Screw that. We had a mass shooting with a legally papered silencer - the only such shooting ever, just as the Supreme Court was about to take up a case on whether silencers are covered under the Second Amendment. What are the chances of that?
Guess we're gonna find out in court.
Nobody said he didn’t.
But Jones’ victims still have the right to sue him til he bleeds.
Don’t forget, FRiend, you or I could be also be the next victims of Jones & people like him.
Please don’t conflate.
Defamation lawsuits aren’t intended to silence anyone’s free speech or threaten the First Amendment.
They’re intended to protect PEOPLE from the HARM that results from the dissemination of FAKE NEWS (aka LIES.)
“Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor,” remember?
Ah, the case of the Newtown Martian and a very strange and foreign neighborhood.
I'm not a defender of Alex Jones, but I LOVE Kaitlin Bennett!

Because they don’t show the bodies of dead people. Show me a picture of Lanza from last year.
