Alex Jones : I don't know whether to laugh or cry...

I don't see any reason to laugh...

I wonder how comes such loose cannon is allowed to spread his delusional theories...

About Parkland :

- Dems are to blame ( we knew...)

- Cruz was a DACA recipient...(tell me about a paradox...)

- Cruz is hispanic...

- 2 eyewitnesses told about a 2nd shooter...

- "Eyewitness Alexa Miednik, who believes there was a second shooter, said she was WALKING with accused suspect Nikolas Cruz (who the media previous spelled as Nicolas) after she heard shots being fired – and told Cruz she was glad “it wasn’t him” who was doing the shooting at the school in Florida"

Oh, he did it simple : he took it all.

I'm not against the idea of kicking his ass...but with protections. The kind you will use for rad waste. He is dangerously toxic.

Now, more seriously, here, he would have fallen under the Law.

I don't know how it works in the US. Is there no control of media ? Or perhaps not as strict as ours ?

He is a real danger, he can create another "Pizzagate" catastrophe which will perhaps not end as well...

If I ever see this man on the street, I might be tempted to run up and knock him in the nose. Not even joking. This man needs be put in a mental ward.

YOU would be the one to pay the price!

I agree that he needs to be put away somewhere. But first he needs to be "hit" where it counts - in the wallet. Go after Genesis:

The feeling would be there, but obviously I wouldn't hit him. Just yell at him...some very choice words.

Consumer products

A 2017 piece for German magazine Der Spiegel by Veit Medick indicated that two-thirds of Jones' funds derive from sales of a successful range of his own products. These products are marketed through the Infowars website and through advertising spots on Jones' show. They include dietary supplements, toothpaste, bulletproof vests and "brain pills" "appealing to those who believes Armageddon is near", according to Medick.[73]

In August 2017, Californian medical company Labdoor, Inc reported on tests applied to six of Jones' dietary supplement products. These included a product named 'Survival Shield', which was found by Labdoor to contain only iodine, and a product named 'Oxy-Powder', which comprised a compound of magnesium oxide and citric acid; common ingredients in dietary supplements. Labdoor indicated no evidence of prohibited or harmful substances, but cast doubt on Infowars' marketing claims for these products, and asserted that the quantity of the ingredients in certain products would be "too low to be appropriately effective".[74][75][76]

On a segment of Last Week Tonight, host John Oliver stated that Jones spends "nearly a quarter" of his on-air time promoting products sold on his website, many of which are purported solutions to medical and economic problems claimed to be caused by the conspiracy theories described on his show.[77][78]
