Infowars apologizes for 'Pizzagate' coverage
washingtonexaminer.com ^ | 3/24/17 | Daniel Chaitin

Posted on 03/25/2017 9:37:31 AM PDT by ColdOne

Infowars apologized on Friday for its role in perpetuating the "Pizzagate" conspiracy theory that connected a Washington, D.C., pizza restaurant to a child sex ring run by Hillary Clinton.

Talk show host Alex Jones, an avid Trump supporter who runs the site, went on air to read a statement where he personally apologized to James Alefantis, the owner of Comet Ping Pong, which was repeatedly harassed and threatened for its alleged connection to Pizzagate. It was at that restaurant in December that a man from North Carolina walked in and fired a rifle as he looked for evidence supporting the conspiracy theory that there were underground tunnels through which children were trafficked.

Because some perv made it up, edited in his own pictures, tells us in other videos that anyone androgynous looking is obviously involved in child porn, that any triangle symbol means they are involved in child porn, any butterfly means they are involved in child porn, etc.

And their other video claims Katye Perry is the real leader of the Pizzagate Child Porn Ring.... (when, of course, we knew all along it was Wayne Newton!)

Years ago we had to go to Insane Asylums and old women gossiping over the back fence for this BS.

It will turn out that the only real pervs will be the sickos who get their jollies spreading this BS.

Thank goodness we have made progress so we can spread this BS at the speed of light on the internet.

I find it noteworthy that the same very professional sounding debunkers crawl all over every pizzagate thread, claiming that because there is no legal proof (live video, witnesses under oath, etc) that freepers can provide, it is all total nonsense.

I cannot believe that many of these debunkers are not paid disinformation agents.

Watch the original by Comet Ping Pong house band and the images of children and torture are there.

They don’t apologize for being pervs and they continue to play at Comet Ping Pong, advertised for all ages.

The controversy over the basement was caused by Alefantis posting a photo on Instagram and calling it a “kill room.”

My understanding is someone else labeled it "killroom".

I stand corrected. His friend “werkingonmynightCheese” who posts a lot of pictures of child sized coffins commented, “#Killroom” and Alefantis replied, “#Murder.”

Allowing other people to tell outrageous lies does not absolve Jones

Show me where I can find a video, the specific URL, that PROVES as follows:

1: A certain band was the Comet Ping Pong house band.

2: The video was made at the behest of that band

3: That video has not been edited. added to etc, (BTW that is rather easy to determine with edit points, transitions at edits, frame rates, audio levels, and half a dozen other things)

4: There are specific images of children and torture on that original video

5: Those images of child torture or supposed child abuse symbols are not some person telling us that a certain symbol indicates child abuse because the FBI says it does, without some specific link to an FBI .GOV SITE says THAT SYMBOL is a link to child porn. Not some narrator, “explaining it. Not any of these, “It’s a triangle, and everyone knows triangles indicate male child sex abuse or it’s a butterfly, and everyone knows that all butterflies are indicative of child abuse. As an example, more that 1000 leading businesses use triangles in their logos. Does that mean all of them, such as Caterpillar are into child porn.

6: Finally, prove that they are still playing there.

Simply put, if you cannot by such a alleged video prove EACH of the elements above, ALL 6, then the video itself is a scam.... and you and others have been scammed.

Sorry, but that is reality.

Their arguments boil down to if freepers cannot present the level of evidence that will immediately result in criminal charges, arrests and convcions, the we are “making Free Republic look bad”.

It’s obvious all they’re trying to do is shut up the discussion.

I wonder what your previous screen names were and why you were previously banned.

Major structural damage from the gigantic falling towers next to it. They never show the south side of the building in all the conspiracy pictures. There was a 20 story hole in Building 7 that eventually made it collapse.

Here's a pretty good write-up on it: WTC7 Damage

Just because our “enemies” are loathsome it doesn’t make them guilty of everything!

Decent people don't have sicko pictures of little kids hanging on their walls.

I wonder why you make up BS of which you have no knowledge.

Actually, I was banned because I found out you are really Barack Obama’s gay lover and threatened to make to public.

Just kidding, but you see, you are not the only one who can make up stupid BS.

All that proves is bad taste in art!
Huge leap from that to pedophilia, human/child trafficking and sacrificing.

Fine, since you know this was made BY the band, unedited, etc, what is the URL of the video that meets the 6 reasonable criteria, and is not one of the 20 or 30 YouTube videos that all claim to be band videos, including the one that claims (for any fool who believes it) that Katy Perry is really the one behind all the supposed child abuse at Comet Pizza.

Always knew she looked like a perv.

By the way, the part no one likes to talk about were the news stories featuring all the REAL neighbors of Comet Pizza that said the place was nothing more than the neighborhood pizza and beer joint, that they had been going there for years, and they were sick and tired of all the lookey loos screwing up traffic, etc.
