Iraq had WMD's they were shipped to Syria at the start of the war.
As to Jones, actions have consequences.... making up lies about a school shooting should make you liable to defamation... which is illegal... so... what's your bitch?
First of all, Sandy Hook is in Connecticut and the judgment against Jones is in a Texas district court controlled by a Democrat judge and DA.
What damages did the “defamed” plaintiffs suffer that amounts to over $1 billion?
It’s a ridiculous and vindictive judgement and people like you are why they are allowed to stand. Jones has to liquidate his life because he has an opinion and the Rats found a friendly court to severely punish him as an example to the rest of us.
Sorry I thought it was Jersey.... but same thing.... either way, trashing shooting victims for profit, he got what he deserved, the slime of the slime.
The largest award went to Robbie Parker, who received $120 million. For years on his Infowars show and website, Mr. Jones singled out Mr. Parker, whose daughter Emilie died at Sandy Hook, as an actor whose televised tribute to Emilie a day after her death was “disgusting.”
Jury is now seeing another Infowars airing of the video of Robbie Parker’s news conference, with Jones sidekick Rob Dew telling Infowars’ audience that Robbie Parker was “getting into character.” This was two years after the shooting.
The shooting had barely happened when Jones began pushing the falsehood that it was a hoax. Victims’ families who sued Jones said they were subjected to years of torment, threats and abuse by people who believed the lies told on his show. One father said conspiracy theorists urinated on his 7-year-old son’s grave and threatened to dig up the coffin.

Yeah, I remember when I was naive and believed that “shipped to Syria” bullshit as well.
Hey look, here’s a convoy of trucks somewhere! They’re transporting WMDs that have never been used or seen since!
No fooling me ever again, MIC.
As for Alex Jones, if you agree with the amount of money he’s supposed to pay for exercising his 1st Amendment rights, you may as well vote Democrat.
If you get an upvote from @MelloDawg
Im jes sayin.
First ammendment rights don't allow defamation. Sorry dude fucked up.
I hear ya, never want that, but it is what it is.
Back to back home runs is rare from anyone here, let alone you. Mark this day for posterity.
Being liable for defamation is not illegal.
Well, not illegal criminally, but sure is on the civil side
Incorrect again. Which law he did break on the civil side that led to the judgment (you won't find one)?
Defamation of character.
There's no law that says you can't do that.
In new jersey there is..

You support lawfare and possible fascism.

Also it was a Connecticut jurt that awarded it.... he just lives in Texas.
There’s a shock. A CT jury and judge bankrupted a man over expressing an opinion.
Who are the people that got defamed and how much were the real-world damages? Still waiting on you to tell me how this is a fair civil reward.
Didn't he simply say that Sandy Hook was hoax? That doesn't defame anyone.
Sure.
That's all he said, Mall Cop.
Do any real cops (or real Christians) poast here?

Has the National Enquirer ever been ordered to pay $1 billion or any redonkulus amount for their "reporting"? 🤔
It takes a special gift to defame dozens of people in the most cruel and agonizing way. The NE maybe doesn't have that kind of gift.
