Sandy Hook Parents Sue Alex Jones for Defamation
New York Times ^ | APRIL 17, 2018 | MATTHEW HAAG

Posted on 04/18/2018 9:06:49 AM PDT by LouieFisk

Three parents whose children were killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School in 2012 filed a defamation lawsuit on Tuesday against Alex Jones, the right-wing conspiracy theorist who has long claimed the shooting was “completely fake” and a “giant hoax” perpetrated by opponents of the Second Amendment.

Of course I get it...

People who think Trump colluded with Russia are paid liars masquerading as journalists....

People who think Sandy Hook was a false flag operation are detached from reality....

“An opinion of what happened at Sandy Hook is NOT defamation.”

We’ll see if the court agrees with your legal ruling. But I’m guessing they won’t be much guided by it.

“What does the moon landing have to do with dead children in Sandy Hook?”

Both were obviously faked, of course. As was Elvis’ death and 9/11. I’m with you Troofers, reality be damned!

“So you have to ask yourself why are they bringing this lawsuit now?”

They likely got sick and tired of harassment and threats from those he provoked with his claims - see the real life repercussions links in my previous comments by way of examples.

It will never make it to court. You cannot file a lawsuit for something subjective. It’s called opinion and nothing more.

All these lawsuits are designed to tie Alex down in litigation. The good news is Alex is filing counter suits and will go after all those that do not cease and desist.

Getting your wages garnished is never a good thing.

First you are speculating.

Even if that is case Alex can only be held liable if he encourages people to go out and do this. Alex, never did that. He walked it back over 4 years ago which means he is outside statutory linmits too.

There is no case. Ithe lawsuit is only there to smear his name which is why he will countersuit and will not settle.

Sandy Hook Truthers are the lowest bottom feeders on the Internet. These ghouls actually harrass the parents of the murdered kids and turn up in their neighborhoods trying to chase down the swill they lapped up on line about “fake kids”, “actor parents”, etc.

That’s why their garbage is banned at FR.

Problem is Jones made rather direct accusations of people perpetrating a hoax. That’s defamation. That’s legally actionable. Always has been.

He was still going at it last June.

“There is no case.”

We’ll see if the court throws it out.

Again there is no case. You have wishful thinking. It will not even make it to court.

You can’t file lawsuits based on opinions on what happened at an incident. If that was the case you could file lawsuits on the entire country.

It’s called the 1st Amendment. LEARN IT!

Megyn asked him a direct question multiple times?

You can’t file a law suit because someone answers a question in an interview. Haha!

S.M.H.

You have to look at the full 30 second clip too.

For the record Alex was with her all day in excess of 12 hours when they did this interview.

Moreover, Megyn cut and clipped the interview instead of showing the full interview.

This is when Megyn thought she was going to be big. She got caught lying, and where is Megyn now? Oh yeah her career is on life support.

Again you can’t file a lawsuit when an Interviewer asks him to answer a question.

Nice try... Learn the law.

No. The Truth has been banned since the 1910s. We have TOTALLY CONTROLLED perceptions based on LIES since before WWI. With the cartel at Jekyll Island and a takeover and destruction of our Constitution, we NEVER get the truth.

Those who control our “news” and money (Federal Reserve) do control everyone who has any power or platform, or else they are Brietbarted or Hastinged or JFKed.

Truth is more deadly than Lies——and since the Rothschild’s and Morgan’s bought up Reuters and all APs by 1916-—we will NEVER get the truth. Our history is a lie....totally controlled “history”—about why we went into WWI, WWII—who funded it, etc., all major lies.

Unless we read HG Wells’ “Open Conspiracy” and Bertrand Russell’s writings and Eustace Mullins and original documents, we “know” only what the elites want us to “know”—which is Orwellian to the core—where Boys are Girls and Marxism is the only allowed worldview in our children (group-identity politics so we are so irrational, children can’t know even if they are boy or girl, much less the “truth”.

Sorry. Everything we “learned” in “school” is cr*p since they eliminated Classical Christian curricula by 1930 in America, which is the ONLY curricula which gives us the tools to “think” for ourselves, like our Founding Fathers. Free Will is impossible without understanding the truth/God/Western Civilization/philosophy, theology-—and we only get lies 24/7 and warped “truth”—revisionist history-—oh, with a little tiny, tiny bit of “truth”.

The Truth will set us FREE, so since the elite psychopaths only want “happy” slaves—they put in a system where they control ALL our perceptions, ALL our textbooks, ALL our institutions since Joe McCarthy was totally destroyed and defamed for stating the Truth. The “free press” in America was and is worse than Pravda (as Solzhenitsyn stated in 78).

We banned Truth in America by 1970===completely. All the “false flags”—killings, Waco, 9-11 was done by the CFR and the CIA/Mossad (arms of the Rothschild-Warburg-Dupont-Morgan cartel who are ushering in transhumanism (their NWO of total slavery where we will all be like the slaves in their test case (China) all in tiny micro-dorms in “smart” cities—totally monitored like in BNW. They (CFR/Rothschild group) totally funded and controlled Marx, Darwin, Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mao, Pot, etc. to “kill God” and bring in the anti-christian worldview so Free Will (Truth/God) is DEAD. We are their little slavees in their unconstitutional SYSTEM of TOTAL CONTROL (health”care”/skools, etc) to usher in chaos (ignorant, immoral “bots”), so out of the ashes the psychopaths/Malthusians/Fabian Socialists get total control of every single person on earth and kill off billions.

Listen to the Corbett Report, sometime, if you can’t read....one of the only places to get some truth-—other than Eustace Mullens, HG Wells and Huxley’s writings who were up front in stating the “plans” of the dehumanization process of the world-—to reduce man to conditioned, programmed cattle—to be herded and completely Mind-controlled-—to destroy free will (google Fichte 1810 “snow is black” quote)—program all the children like the Hitler Youth were-—for “happy slavery” of the masses.

The pot is almost boiling in America and the useful idiots “think” they get the “truth” from Mockingbird-CIA-controlled MSM still. LOLOL

All Comey and Mueller do is control “perceptions” of the masses. It is ALL our “news” ever did and does. They will be killed if they go off the plantation—their script.

I don’t think FR appreciates this level of insanity. Even Alex Jones concedes the children were killed.

Infowars is banned from this site for a reason.

Think about it.
