Conspiracy theory professor says Sandy Hook shooting may not have happened
Daily Mail ^ | 1/8/13 | Daily Mail Reporter

Posted on 01/08/2013 9:51:11 AM PST by Nachum

Outrageous claims made by a professor who specializes in conspiracy theories are set to provoke grieving family by saying that the Sandy Hook massacre may not have happened at all.

James Tracy, a tenured history professor at Florida Atlantic University, wrote a lengthy post on his personal blog saying that the shooting that left 20 children and six teachers dead may not have happened the way that it is widely believed, if it happened at all.

Backed solely by the erroneous early reports filed during the midst of the horrendous incident, Mr Tracy 's claim is preying on the confusion of the tragic day.

'While it sounds like an outrageous claim, one is left to inquire whether the Sandy Hook shooting ever took place -- at least in the way law enforcement authorities and the nation's news media have described,' he has said.

The 47-year-old professor bases his outrageous claims largely on the flurry of conflicting media reports that were made as news of the shooting was released throughout the day on December 14.

The Board of Trustees of FAU should be meeting right now, determining how they hired an idiot and terminating his contract right then and there.

Conspiracy theorists have a form of mental illness. I have a friend who was a large trader at the CBOT. A few years ago he was worth millions, married to a knockout woman, 3 great kids and a brownstone in a tony section of Chicago.
About 3 years ago we were having dinner and he tells me 9/11 was a set up and it was to fund a trillion dollar war on terror. I knew right then he’d lost it. He started trading on these theories and soon lost everything.

Usually a respected trader with a good track record can get some sort of backing except he’d been telling folks about his theories and no one was willing to back him.

Fast Forward...He’s now living in a studio apartment bagging groceries his wife has left him.
I just saw him recently and he comes out and say’s Sandy Hook was a set up by Holder to take away our guns.

Sandy Hook has many of the indicia of a false flag operation, IMHO.

The guy crying over his daughter a few minutes after laughing and joking around and then getting into character leaves little doubt (although there is some doubt, admittedly) that he was an actor.

The name "Sandy" seems a little too convenient to me, after Hurricane Sandy. It looks like a marketing ploy to me.

There doesn't seem to be much information on the shooter. None of his neighbors it would appear even knew he existed, according to some MSM reports.

It follows a pattern of the crazed devil-worshiping gunman (Arizona, Colorado) shooting up a crowd with a fully automatic weapon, that seems a bit too consistent to be coincidental.

And qui bono? It comes at a suspiciously good time for the Obama administration.

False flag?

I don't know. I would say that at this point don't believe anything you hear from MSM about this (or anything else for that matter).

Did you know that during the Kennedy Administration there was a plan developed ,signed by the Joint Chiefs, to terrorize America and blame it on the Cubans. One part of it involved planes.

Operation Northwoods.

That doesn’t mean that 9/11 didn’t happen or that it wasn’t the Muslims.

But it does mean there is a basis for distrust of the government and what they are capable of doing to us.

Operation MK Ultra should have clued you in to the depths of depravity that can be authorized.

It is quite possible that Jones is a disinformation specialist. Sort of like Sorcha Faal whom many believe is a CIA disinformation specialist.

'As documents relating to the Sandy Hook shooting continue to be assessed and interpreted by independent researchers, there is a growing awareness that the media coverage of the massacre of 26 children and adults was intended primarily for public consumption to further larger political ends,' he wrote.

"[T]here is a growing awareness that the media coverage of the massacre of 26 children and adults [IS] intended primarily for public consumption to further larger political ends."

Without his outrageous claim his statement of fact never had a chance of ever appearing in any newspaper; with the outrageous claim.. behold! that fact has appeared in one of the tens of thousands of MSM articles. The newspaper employee slipped up. It won't happen again.

This is no more outrageous than the coverup of what really happened that is ongoing now and certainly no more outrageous than the knee-jerk reaction that what happened in Sandy Hook means that all guns are bad and all guns must be confiscated.

Outrageous claims? The libs have a lock on those.

This is the crux of the problem, the more the media practices intentional malpractice in the process of pushing a pointed liberal agenda the much more respected the conspiracy kooks will be among the populace....

Yes I knew all that.

Note that it did not happen and that northwoods was a one of thousnads of plans/ideas the are created that were rejected.

Curtis LeMay wanted to first stike the soviets too.. now we did not do that even though there were plans for it.

What is your point, that northwoods was a crazy idea that was rejected ? that would support the idea that CRAZY ideas tend to be rejected!

You disagree with him about 9/11 and therefore he is wrong about everything under the sun.

If it walks like a duck...

There are a surprising amount of kooks who believe Sandy Hook did not happen or that it was 100% government orchestrated to pave the way for gun-grabbing.

I'm not saying that we shouldn't worry about the government's desire to disarm people. I'm saying those who are convinced this event was government-led for that purpose are loony.

“-—normally he uses his middle finger in domestic photos”

I really think I did see, in the same article, a 2nd pix of obama using his special salute - went back to find and could not.

I was being fed information from a SHES parent when this was going on.

I wanted to believe that that there were only minor injuries and that there were only a few fatalities (as first reported).

I was being told things were much worse.

The news reports were wrong. They may have been given bad information intentionally to prevent panic and allow for parents to be contacted, but they were wrong.

“Over the weekend, I spoke with a friend whose co-worker is an aunt of one of the victims.”

Is that from a SNL skit? Seriously- it made me laugh.

Glad you found it funny. I don’t. And I’m sure the families of the victims wouldn’t find it funny either.

Here is some conspiracy evidence that I think has been overlooked by most everyone including the tenured professor.

The evidence I cite involves those therapy dogs that were sent to Newtown to comfort the grieving “actor-parents”. I contend that they were actually fake comfort dogs because real comfort dogs would be able to tell that the “actor parents” were just faking their grief and would not have licked their faces. Just sayin’.

Oh. Well, I don’t think there were any victims, so I thought you were kidding.

Make of this what you will.

Consider the source, consider that it isn't welcome on FR.

Consider the implications if it is accurate...
