Town Of Newtown, CT, Calls On Trump To Sever Ties With Sandy Hook Truther Alex Jones

he Los Angeles Times reported parents of victims of the Sandy Hook shooting believe Donald Trump is "nurturing the culture of exaggeration and paranoia" that leads conspiracy theorists to harass them, by not publicly denouncing Alex Jones.

After noting "President Trump and his national security advisor, Michael T. Flynn, have been open enthusiasts of Alex Jones' Infowars," which promotes the baseless conspiracy theory "that Sandy Hook was staged by Democrats to advance a gun control agenda," the L.A. Times reported "The town of Newtown is drafting an official letter to the White House demanding that Trump sever his ties to Jones."

The L.A. Times quotes an excerpt of this letter, which states "Jones repeatedly tells his listeners and viewers that he has your ears and your respect. He brags about how you called him after your victory in November. Emboldened by your victory, he continues to hurt the memories of those lost, the ability of those left behind to heal":

If there is anything worse than losing a child, it is losing a child and having people taunt you over the loss.

That is what happened to the family of Noah Pozner, a 6-year-old with tousled brown hair and lollipop-red lips, the youngest of the 26 children and staff members gunned down in 2012 at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.

In the years since the massacre that shook the country and opened new anxiety over gun violence, the family has received hate-filled calls and violent emails from people who say they know the shooting was a hoax. Photos of their son — some with pornographic and anti-Semitic content — have been distributed on websites.

[...]

President Trump and his national security advisor, Michael T. Flynn, have been open enthusiasts of Alex Jones' Infowars, a Web-based radio and video network that has relentlessly pushed the theory that Sandy Hook was staged by Democrats to advance a gun control agenda.

An unabashed Trump supporter during the campaign, Jones says he received a personal call of thanks from the president-elect days after the election.

Although Trump has not spoken publicly about Sandy Hook, many residents here say he is nurturing the culture of exaggeration and paranoia on which conspiracy theorists thrive.

The town of Newtown is drafting an official letter to the White House demanding that Trump sever his ties to Jones.

"Jones repeatedly tells his listeners and viewers that he has your ears and your respect. He brags about how you called him after your victory in November. Emboldened by your victory, he continues to hurt the memories of those lost, the ability of those left behind to heal," reads an excerpt of the letter that was shared recently with the news media.

Family members who lost children at Sandy Hook say they find themselves twice victimized.

[...]

"This cloud of disinformation and misinformation and fake news has been harmful to the community,'' said Patricia Llodra, a Republican selectwoman for Newtown. "I'm not an angry person, but when I think about the hurtful things these hoaxers say, I want to ask, 'How could you? How dare you question the pain that these families experience every day.'"


The L.A. Times' report follows Alex Jones' prior attacks on the daughter of slain Sandy Hook Elementary School principal Dawn Hochsprung, who had asked Trump to not appear on Jones' radio show. Jones responded to this request by repeatedly defending his promotion of Sandy Hook conspiracies.

The world is in BIG trouble. 
(That's the red-hatted bastard punishing the goy on orders from the jews.)

AJ is non-functioning gatekeeper at this point.  Once upon a time, he could limit and steer his audience.  Not anymore.  Sending newbies to him is a good thing.  Most of us spent time hanging out with AJ.  Trump and Flynn pushing AJ is not good for the Jews.

I see AJ as a tool that will only swell our own ranks in the future.  Most people move on to more "advanced" material (the Jews) after they get comfortable with/tired of Jones.  That was my personal experience.  Same thing with Iamthewitness.com - everybody has their own blindspots and shortcomings.  It's so important to not get "stuck" in any one particular playpen I've noticed.

Yes AJ is a blowhard but I'm not taking MediaMatters (Soros) all too seriously either, nor Newtown CT.  "The Poor Children" card was played with the OKC Bombing and I certainly don't believe the official story of that event.  Perhaps some can set me straight on Sandy Hook but I've yet to see any "proof" of the claims of the official story.  It's more like they rely on people obeying the mainstream cult of "news" when really the burden of proof lies with the one making allegations (ie. a school was shot up by a lone nut and many children died).  Where's the security footage showing what happened?  Where's the blood, where are the bullet holes, where are the piles of dead bodies?  Where's the forensic evidence?  Perhaps I missed it altogether....?

If I claimed to have gone fishing and reeled in the Lochness monster, people would demand that I provide some sort of proof of my claims.  I can't change my story three times and then call people "nutters" and "conspiracy theorists" when they don't believe me.

Yet, this is what JewNews does constantly.
