I do not believe this but found it on Facebook. It’s a Powerpoint of a second shooter conspirancy theory in the Sandy Hook shootings…[https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1Fup7c-U7J61G-P1FS3H7yj4gO77gHfylpw9R3pTCwAk/edit#slide=id.g16321f8\_1\_0](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1Fup7c-U7J61G-P1FS3H7yj4gO77gHfylpw9R3pTCwAk/edit#slide=id.g16321f8_1_0)  
Let’s dissect this and send the conspiracy theorists packing…so far I’ve seen it in both right wing and left wing circles (one of them was theorizing that it was a false flag type of operation to try to ban handguns…and yes, it was from an extreme right winger why do you ask?)

I don’t think it deserves the time and effort of dissection and comment.

The events of that day unfolded tragically and quickly and the media were quick to report anything and everything they heard without verifying it, and so, we have conclusions that aren’t in line with initial reports; so what?

There’s no conspiracy here, move along folks.

This.

We don’t have to look and see what’s inside every pile of shit.

Oh yes, because when you present conspiracy theorists with logic and reason, they accept it and give up. Don’t waste time banging your head against the wall.
