Default Man harassed over Newtown Tragedy

A man who took in 6 kids during the shootings at Newtown is being harassed by "truthers", who say what he did was a hoax.

Don't these people have something better to do then get after this guy?

Can't say I'm surprised. These people are blaming The Dark Knight Rises for the massacre.

I never seen Batman shoot anyone. Whats the problem?

Maybe it is the violent video games, like call of duty. Nothing makes me want to shoot someone more than an MP session of Black Ops 2. My wife is lucky she breathes! I am so heavily armed, she oughta be kissing my beanbag I don't pull an Aurora or Newtown on her and the neighbors.

Or maybe we can blame movies like Django Unchained, or Die Hard.

Oh darn, Jamie Foxx shot a white guy, time to clean out a school!

Django Unchained has given me the urge to shoot every lawyer multiple times and then shot Quentin Tarantino while he has a load of dynamite in a sack.Not really sure why.It also makes me consider becoming a dentist.

I notice that that Batman comic was published during WWII(War Bond tag on the lower left corner) clearly he is shooting either Japs or Nazis therefore he is not in fact shooting real people but rather subhuman scum.

I just finished reading that artical a couple of minutes ago. I'm shocked but not surprized at all. Whats really stupid about this is that these "truthers" as their now being called, like others before them (the JFK assasination comes to mind) is that they come up with these ideas that something was faked, or didn't happen the way others say it did when even though the "truthers" wheren't there when it happened. So how can they say that is wrong, faked, or fraudulent when they where never there to see what really went down?

Lawyers are to money what leaches are to blood, so who wouldn't want to shoot a lawyer?

Watch the movie and you'll get my lawyer joke. If you have you missed something.... one just gets very unlucky in the movie his bad luck involves a lot of lead.

There's a bit where Commissioner Gordon say the words 'bring it down' while pointing at Sandy Hook on a map.
