Alex Jones Infowars.com Attempts To Profit Off Fort Lauderdale Mass Shooting
Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones radio show used the January 6 mass shooting at an airport in Fort Lauderdale, FL, to urge viewers to buy body armor from Jones online store.
On January 6, a gunman killed five people and wounded six others when he opened fire with a handgun in the baggage claim area at Fort LauderdaleHollywood International Airport. The suspect, who was arrested at the scene, legally checked the firearm used for the shooting in his luggage on a flight from Anchorage, AK, to Fort Lauderdale.
The day of the shooting, two guest hosts on The Alex Jones Show -- Infowars Owen Shroyer and David Knight -- used the violence to urge viewers to buy body armor.
Citing the shooting and claiming gun control areas are killing zones, Knight said, You need to make sure -- if theyre going to take your gun away, if theyre going to keep you defenseless -- you need to make sure that you can at least shield yourself. Thats why were selling tactical nanotechnology body armor that was previously available only to the military, only to law enforcement, is now available exclusively at InfowarsStore.com.

Santiago aimed at his victims' heads during the rampage until he ran out of bullets, the U.S. Attorney's Office said. Six people were wounded. Santiago dropped his handgun and got on the ground to wait for police, witnesses said.
