[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven't followed this story, so I pretty much only know that he said Sandy Hook was fake.  What was his motive? WHY would anyone ever say that?[/quote]
The far right was afraid Sandy Hook might actually spur the American people to demand more restrictions on gun ownership. Claiming this was a hoax and the families were crisis actors gave gun nuts some cover to fight restrictions. Sadly, even Sandy Hook didn’t make the American people demand change.[/quote]

The real answer is that he owned a website that hustled goods like t-shirts and copper armbands to help arm pain.  He had a ton of followers that increased during mass shootings and therefore, his sales of other crap also went up.  His wife was interviewed for a book I read recently about Sandy Hook and she basically said that she begged him not say it was a hoax and initially, he didn't.  He then saw his viewership increase and was suddenly on the band wagon.  Sales increased and then it downhill from there.[/quote]
