Sandy Hook Truther Arrested for Threatening Parent of Shooting Victim

http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2016/12/sandy-hook-truther-arrested-for-threatening-parent-of-victim.html

A Tampa, Florida woman is facing federal charges for allegedly threatening the parent of a child who died in the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown, Connecticut. The woman, 57-year-old Lucy Richards, is apparently a Sandy Hook truther – that is, one of the hoaxers who believe the massacre was staged.

Richards has been indicted on four counts of transmitting threats in interstate commerce. According to the criminal complaint, Richards sent menacing messages to the parent in January, at one point writing “you gonna die, death is coming to you real soon” and ”LOOK BEHIND YOU IT IS DEATH.”

Next week marks the four-year anniversary of the carnage at Sandy Hook — when 20 year-old Adam Lanza barged into a classroom, murdering 20 students and six teachers before taking his own life. Sandy Hook hoaxers deny this. Lenny Pozner, a Sandy Hook parent who lost his 6-year-old son, Noah, in the shooting, described his fight against the hoaxers’ harassment and disinformation to New York Magazine:

But by the spring of 2014, as he watched the hoaxer movement bloom, Pozner decided to try fighting back. He released Noah’s death certificate, to convince those who believed he had not been killed, and his report card — “Noah is a bright, inquisitive boy” — for those who believed he had never lived at all.


Can there be anyone more vile than this?

This is the mentality of the people we face when we support reasonable restrictions on who can carry guns and where they carry them and what king of guns they carry.

The fringe of the gun rights movement is DANGEROUS. They routinely threaten death to anyone who opposes the second amendment absolutist movement.

Alt Right, ALEC, Koch Brothers, Fox, Robertson, GOP, Racists, Bigots -- just to name a few enablers of Second Amendment absolutists, and the inbred ammosexual gun culture that helped to elect one of their own.
