In reply to the discussion: Alex Jones loses it: Harry Reid staged ‘false flag’ Vegas shooting with MK-ULTRA mind control [View all]elzenmahn
(904 posts)...the threat Alex Jones poses is that he takes (or used to take) legitimate concerns that people might have about government overreach, loss of constitutional rights, etc., and twists them and turns them so hard that they lose credibility in the eyes of most sane people - but in this case, what happens when the receiver of said information is lacking a few french fries in their happy meal to begin with?
I never said, or intended to imply, that there way anything "false flag" about those shootings. They were perpetrated by murderers, pure and simple, and those murderers should go through the system like every other murderer, regardless of who or what "inspired' them.
I am saying, however, that this shining of spotlights on the likes of Alex Jones gives them exactly what they want. They don't care if the publicity is good or bad - they just want it. It sells books and videos, and diverts attention from matters we should be dealing with.
