Conspiracy theorist launches site just to attack David Hogg
Source: MSN/Daily News
An internet conspiracy theorist tied to Alex Jones has launched a new website dedicated to attacking gun control advocate David Hogg, and claims its protected by free speech.
The content on Hoggwatch.com features content exclusively related to the 18-year-old Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Student, who survived the February shooting that killed 17 people.
Many of the articles are written by Mike Adams, the founder of Natural News a bombastic website seeking to debunk widely accepted scientific theories.
But Hoggwatch.com, which began publishing stories after the Feb. 14 massacre, pushes conspiracy theories that Hogg is a paid actor who wants to shift the American ideology.

Fox News, Sinclair Broadcasting, Brietbart, and Alex Jones and their copycats. We are about to enter the dark ages of journalism and speech.

(2,993 posts)Mr. Hogg, for better or worse, has become a public figure.
I am not, in any way, saying what this douchebag is doing to Mr. Hogg is right. It's disgusting.
Added on edit - this changes if Adams (or anyone else on this web site) does something that could directly lead to physical harm. I'm talking about broadcasting Mr. Hogg's physical location, for example, or actually calling for Mr. Hogg's assault or worse.

And I stopped looking at it, I suspect some Russian/NRA funding has come Mike Adams way. But if youre going to look at that site you are probably pro gun anyway. It wont earn new converts.

(16,254 posts)I worry that some gun kook will try to do something to David due to being encouraged by Jones or this nut. They won't be happy until they have shut him up. This isn't going away. Those kids have the support of a majority of the country, I would think, and are bound and determined to make a difference. I totally support their efforts because something has to be done about these shootings.
Bless their hearts.

(713 posts)These Right Wingers are hilarious. They are so threatened by one smart kid. It shows how weak their ideology is. It dissolves in the face of truth and intelligence. So they must fight dirty, because they can only lose in a fair fight based on reason and truth. That said, we must counter their propaganda.

(37,648 posts)David should NOT read this. None of the students should. Their PARENTS should, to keep up on what's there, and notify the kids if there's anything they NEED to see.
But I don't think I'd want my kid reading the stuff that's likely to be put there. Or any of the kids to read it.
I am worried for these kids. The emotional toll.

Every Alex Jones follower I've ever come across truly have a few screws loose.

Look at the long-game. Hogg has busted them up. They're off-balance and reacting. All you have to do is sit back and wait for them to eat their own.
Anyone read The Art of War lately?
