Sandy Hook Truthers

Can a brother get a debunking here?

I assume this is up to the usual standards of winger wing-nuttery but I can't bring myself to wade through the feces to figure out what they're about.

I assume that this has as much fact behind it as Obama's $200 million a day trip to Indonesia, 9-11 Trutherism, Obama birtherism, hollow earth theory, moon landing hoaxing, and Big Foot.

I think the Loch Ness monster and the Abominable Snowman have more credibility than this, but that's just my take on it.

Kids were murdered. It really happened. I live in CT and wish it never happened. I really don't enjoy watching my Governor practically break down giving the State of the State address. Or watch the families suffering and the kids that went to Sandy Hook interviewed on the local news about the whole thing. I didn't enjoy the uneasy feeling when I dropped my kids off at school in the days after, thinking about copycats. Or that there were police at my kid's school and at many schools in Connecticut following the shootings.

It's nice and easy to fit this cleanly in a box and simply call it a conspiracy. Some people did that for 9/11 too. But sometimes, real life really is that horrific.

It has to do with their distributed database model and some weaknesses of running calculations off stale couchdb requests.

This is a known problem among programmers who access Facebook's platform; I'll see if I can find some tech forum posts for you.

The idiot who posted the original used code words that led me to the proper snopes page. Crisis actors, the parents were fake, you see. Link is towards the bottom. Pretty crazed shit.
