Man who helped Sandy Hook kids is harassed by conspiracy theorists

A man who found six children in his driveway in Newtown, Conn., after their teacher had been shot and killed in last month’s school massacre has become the target of conspiracy theorists who believe the shootings were staged. …

Rosen, a 69-year-old retired psychologist who lives near Sandy Hook Elementary School where the shootings took place, says his inbox is filled with emails like this one:

“How are all those little students doing? You know, the ones that showed up at your house after the ‘shooting’. What is the going rate for getting involved in a gov’t sponsored hoax anyway?”

Where are the thirty people reached by the two CIA agents in Benghazi?

tom daschle concerned on January 15, 2013 at 11:55 PM

He should put this on his answering machine.

Funny… I don’t recall all this outrage about 9/11 truthers… In fact, I still don’t see any outrage about 9/11 truthers…

Well, if it’s not a hoax, he’d say that. And if it is, he’d say that. Not much story there, IMO.

The Rogue Tomato on January 16, 2013 at 12:35 AM

The truth will be whatever the Democrats want it to be, and their media machine (MSM) will help them achieve that. While I find this guy to be credible and truly doubt he’s part of some conspiracy, I do think some of the details regarding weapons used have been inflated for political traction.

jediwebdude on January 16, 2013 at 1:03 AM

You see, that’s the whole problem.

If an FBI agent came to my home, I would EXAMINE his ID carefully. I wouldn’t let him just flip it in my face and say, “Ok, good enough for me.”

Obama, on the other hand, flashes an obviously bogus birth certificate at the media, and they all say, “Ok, good enough for me.”

The Obama administration says Benghazi was all about a video, and the media says, “Ok, good enough for me,” until they can’t get away with it anymore, and then they just ignore the story.

None of this stuff is good enough for me. I want real answers. We ALL should want real answers. We should be somehow insisting upon them and settling for nothing less. What happened to us as a nation?

I believe you’re talking about Robbie Parker. His oldest child’s name was Emilie. Mr. Parker moved his wife and three daughters to Newtown eight months ago after accepting a job as a physician’s assistant at Danbury Hospital. I watched his press conference and yeah, the guy is something of a weirdo…a weirdo whose little girl is dead.

Shocka! Cray-Cray sounds Crazy (below is not from this article):

Are sure are you that it was a hoax, or are you just raising the questions?

I am as certain as anyone can be that the official story about Adam Lanza killing 26 people is BS. So far we have seen exactly zero real evidence of that, while there is proof that all the key people supporting the story are lying.

For example, on the police scanner audio, the officer clearly says there is a rifle and shotgun in the school, no one can mistake a rifle and shotgun for pistols. The story now is that only pistols were used, and that story has changed twenty times. It isn’t a complicated case, the way they say it happened, but they are sure making it one.

I think the idea of a young man shooting kids for no reason is a black op type psychological operation and did not happen, and is therefore a hoax.

There probably was a hit job by a professional killer or killers, for reasons of greed or political agenda. One angle that hasn’t been looked into is that Lanza’s mom was costing his dad a lot of money, Peter Lanza is reportedly an executive with GE, which is locally into genetic research and closely tied to the Obama regime. There were early reports he was killed, and that is an impossibility, that such a thing would be randomly falsely reported.

“what motivated you to put up the website?

2/21/12 I woke up and having my first cup of coffee, I was heart led and inspired to get the domain name and create a website. I didn’t connect the date to the act until a week or so later. But since I am the New Age Messiah, with my Look Your Heart in the Mirror™ as the new revelation from the Goddess Tefnut, aka Ma’at, of Egypt, I thought the date was significant.”I think the idea of a young man shooting kids for no reason is a black op type psychological operation and did not happen, and is therefore a hoax.”

You are absolutely right!

They have already been caught doing this. It’s called Fast and Furious.

Nothing surprises me.

Consider that oil rig that blew up in the Gulf a few years back.
One month prior to that Obama comes out in favor of expanding oil drilling on our east coast. Just out of the blew. He was being praised by conservatives everywhere.

But then, golly, how unfortunate… an oil rig blew up in the Gulf and he had to suspend all offshore drilling everywhere. What unfortunate timing. See.. he was going to expand oil drilling.. but then had to stop it because oil rigs blow up.

We have no problem thinking madmen like Timothy McVeigh are out there somewhere… but we have a real difficult problem believing we could ever elect one to office.

JellyToast on January 16, 2013 at 6:48 AM

These guys are friggin’ idiots!

There is one person who posted a Youtube video that says “Oh look! IN tyhe video he says his grandchild is 8 but on this one site his profile says he has a 2-year-old grandchild.” As if the guy is going to update the age of his grandchild every year.

DethMetalCookieMonst on January 16, 2013 at 7:13 AM

What did he use to kill the kids? Two handguns? Four handguns? (There were reports of finding 2, then 4 on the scene.) The AR-15? The AR-15 that he supposedly left in the trunk of the car and didn’t use, with video of them retrieving the gun later from the trunk? The AR-15 that the medical examiner said was used exclusively, no handgun wounds?

Was his mother a teacher at the school, or not? Both have been reported, and there’s video of a school nurse saying she WAS a kindergarten teacher there.

It’s called crappy reporting due to everyoen wanting to be “first”. This happens with pretty much every incident.

I guess by the conspiracy nuts’ logic, Katrina was just a conspiracy because there was at least one report of canibalism but that turned out not to be true.

DethMetalCookieMonst on January 16, 2013 at 7:16 AM

Not to mentioned Memorial sites for the kids being created before the incident. Check that out.

DethMetalCookieMonst on January 16, 2013 at 7:17 AM

This is like the 9/11 truther crap. One person posts something (with no proof) and they everyone links to it saying that it’s true.

Ever notice that 9/11 truthers go on about some petition sign by 10,000 (or 100,000) scientists/professors/engineers/ect that state that 9/11 was a conspiracy yet not a single one of them can actual prove that such a document actually exists.

DethMetalCookieMonst on January 16, 2013 at 7:19 AM

And exactly WHY has Rosen been running around to multiple media outlets telling his “story” in the first place? Is he just a typical spotlight-seeking liberal, exploiting the Sandy Hook tragedy of his own volition, for personal reasons, OR, is he in league with obama and his enemy cabal, who are trying desperately to sway public opinion against the 2nd Amendment in preparation for their massive gun-grab program?

The government has withheld many details of the shootings, so, of course thinking people are suspicious.

Pork-Chop on January 16, 2013 at 7:31 AM

Wow! The Paulnuts are in full force in this thread.

DethMetalCookieMonst on January 16, 2013 at 7:34 AM

Even a government hoax is incompetent. They should have used a fall guy that had a long online footprint. And deep into several Tea Party groups and neo-nazi and/or Mossad IDF groups. All fake but easily searched and there under the alises for 4 years all the way back to day one of the tea party.

They can not even do a mass shooting right and get the blame on the right people. If it was a fake leader of a tea party fall guy they would already be collecting guns. Until they are smart enough to recreated the reichstag fire all they have is never let a crisis go to waste.

Want to entertain yourself for hours? Go to Youtube and do a search on the Illuminati. Hilarious because of how stupid these people are. Scary because many people actaully believe these videos.

Remember, the Illuminati controls everything, even the evil corporations. Find out the facts on teh illuminati by going to YouTube, a website owned by Google, one of the biggest corporations out there…

Remembe,r the illuminati controls everyhintg, which is why Alex Jones…..is featured on a massive ammount of radio stations, has his videos sold in many stores and on Netflix, and he owns multiple websites that are easy to find.

Remember, the Illuminati killed Michael Jackson because of the song “They Don’t Really Care About Us”, which is why the Illuminati-owned record companies…..feature that song on just about every Michael Jackson compilation CD out there and on the movie (which, remembe,r the Illuminati created), “This is It”.

Yes, we exist. The published PDF of the birth certificate is a fake. Of that much, I am certain.

All the rest is speculation. I have no idea why they’d fake it. Was he born in Hawaii? I don’t know. Maybe. Was it faked just to get people riled up about his birth certificate? I don’t know. Maybe. Is he hiding just some information on his legitimate birth certificate? I don’t know. Maybe.

I just want to know why he published a fake birth certificate.

Fallon on January 16, 2013 at 8:17 AM

They probably removed it because the website is not a platform for kooky conspiracy theories. It’s unlikely that the person who removed it was trying to cover anything up – they probably just felt that, as a moderator, they were supposed to ensure that the petitions really were about political issues.

I agree letting the moderator of a website have that degree of latitude is probably not appropriate, but guess what? Over zealous moderation of a government website does not make you a victim, nor does it make this not a free country.

RINO in Name Only on January 16, 2013 at 8:38 AM

I have a friend who insists it was a hoax. We haven’t seen the bodies and there was no blood, hence no one was killed. I asked “Where are these people?” Basically they’ve gone into a witness protection program, according to the SH Truthers. Emilie Parker will grow up and you won’t recognize her in 15 years. You can’t pin them down. Is Nancy Lanza dead? It’s like walking on a greased surface. If Nancy Lanza was killed, who killed her and why? They can’t tell you why.

The result or reason for this event is what we’re seeing though–gun control.

I don’t know if it was a hoax, but the Obama Admin is sure playing it that way, as if it was Fast and Furious II. They’re acting as one would act if it was set up to be the crisis that is exploited to get the gun control they couldn’t get when Fast and Furious was exposed.

No, I do not believe it was faked. Though maybe I should reconsider this — if I am ever president, I have to admit that I would be sorely tempted to put a fake birth certificate online, just for sh*ts and giggles, and for the absolute deliciousness of watching all the loons in the opposing party get all worked up.

That’s personally my guess.

I’m certain he has the real thing, he’s just showing off something that was an incredibly obvious fake* as a way of spitting on the peons who dared challenge him in any way. He knows that impeachment proceedings will go exactly nowhere even if someone were to start them (like that one senator), so he can do what he pleases.

Tell you what, scoobies. If this is a fake, how about you use your snooper sleuthing abilities to dig up even a single witness to testify to observing some illegal act. Maybe if you could do that, someone would take you seriously.

Or did Obama have all the conspirators killed? And then had the killers killed. And then had those killers killed, and the last group of murderers proceeded to kill themselves for the cause?

Put up or shut up. Get someone to testify, in open court, and maybe someday someone will take you seriously.
