Alex Jones must pay $965 million in damages to numerous families of victims of the 2012 Sandy Hook mass shooting for falsely claiming they were actors who faked the tragedy, a Connecticut jury said on Wednesday, marking the second multimillion-dollar verdict against the conspiracy theorist in just over two months.

      I'd be all too willing to see the 965 mil dropped in favor of putting this man on a concord to each school shooting and making him be there front and center to witness the horrific tragedies when they happen; have him literally pick up the dead and dying kids and putting them in ambulances. This man is detached from reality cause he doesn't have to see it, doesn't have to listen to the heartbreaking testimony from grieving families. He should be made to be present every time this event occurs and to literally be palms deep in the horror.

        I'm down with this just because it would mean bringing back the concorde

          I watched a segment of his fundraiser video where he went out of his way to say that none of the money raised would be for the families. This person just insists on being as awful a human being as possible.
