No way in hell it didn't happen. A family member was a paramedic on the scene.
On fringe sites around the web, a new conspiracy theory is being cultivated: the Jan. 8 shootings in Tucson, Arizona that took the lives of six and wounded 13 others, including Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.), never actually took place.Not much new except that the article goes on to mention that some believers are conducting their own investigation.
The Times reports: "They tried to get into my home," said the victim, who asked that he not be identified because it might attract more such visitors. "They wanted to know if I had any pictures. They said they didn't believe the event took place." The victim said that when he pressed the visitors for identification, one of them presented a business card that listed the Texas conspiracy site, which describes the shooting as an exercise conducted by the Department of Homeland Security. Other people connected to the case, including hospital personnel, victims' relatives and possible trial witnesses, have received similar visits or seen their images on the Web site, officials said.Are we seeing some fellow theorist taking things to far or are we seeing the begining of the margilization of conspiracy theorists?
Seriously though I agree it could be some bad apples, yet I have seen more references to conspiracy theorist and our "kook" beliefs lately then I
ever have. I wonder if our site was being referenced to as well.
