Do people who decry any and all conspiracy theories ever honestly investigate them? There were enough strange, wacko things that went on surrounding Sandy Hook to make any sane person wonder.
The regional drill gone “live” sure fit a lot of the evidence that makes no sense in any other context.
You can save time in investigating conspiracy theories if you just ask yourself two questions:
1. Would the alleged conspiracy have required a very large number of people to cooperate to pull it off?
2. How likely is it that they could all have kept silent indefinitely?
This immediately rules out the moon landing, WTC, and Newtown conspiracies for anyone who doesn't have a completely paranoid worldview.
