No More Lies!: Alex Jones Leads JFK Conspiracy Theorists Rally in Dallas
The assassination of President John F. Kennedy is probably the greatest source of conspiracy theories in American history. So it only makes sense that InfoWars Alex Jones would descend on Dallas, Texas with about 50 of his most ardent followers to protest what he views as some sort of massive government cover-up.
Jones broadcasted his protest live on InfoWars, and in the clip below, you can see him using a bullhorn to lead his crowd in a chant of No more lies! No more lies!
We are not going to put of with the lies of the globalist anymore! he screamed. We are not going to let this country become Communist China! We are not going to see our free speech violated! We are not going to let the globalist and the internationalist media here attack anyone that does not believe the official story!
Jones confronted a police representative who attempted to get him and the crowd to hold their protest in a designated free speech zone where they would be out of the way of the official anniversary ceremony events. Free speech zone? Jones asked. Is North Korea a free speech zone? When the officials threatens his arrest, he made an analogy to Tiananmen Square in China.

The proof? Very few DUers who are CTists are able to provide any kind of evidence to support the various CTs out there, while at the same time, they are blissfully unaware of the evidence presented in the WCR and the HSCA reports that support the conclusions reached by both entities: ie. that JFK was killed by bullets fired from Oswald's gun, and that there was no involvement by the CIA, FBI, SS, the mob, the Russians, the Cubans or any of the typical "suspects" alluded to in the CTs.
Is it a "smear job" to point out to people that the evidence says the Earth is more than 6,000 years old? Don't think so. So why is it a smear to point out to DUers the evidence that proves that their CT belief has no basis in reality?
