Obnoxious Troll Asks Massachusetts Governor If Marathon Attack Was A 'False Flag'

[BootinUp]

"Why were people in the audience telling people to be calm moments before the bomb went off," the person asked, "Was this another false flag staged attack to take our civil liberties and promote Homeland Security by sticking their hands down our pants on the streets?"

"No," the Governor said, "Next question."

I wish they showed the guy who asked the dumb question.

1. Yep, and Alex Jones already said that to!

I can't believe that the conspiracy folks lit up the internet with the false flag crap before they even got everybody to the hospital. Salon has a story about Alex jones schpeel.

2. I was watching that live. Governor Patrick responded instantly and turned to another 'journalist.'

I wasn't sure I heard the troll right. Now I am.

3. Might have been this guy ...

4. Conspiracy theorists and false flag flyers

These people are in denial. They can't accept that bad things do happen and people can be evil so they find some other reason for it to happen, like the gubment had to be up to it. But I imagine most of us already knew that. I'm not sure how these people make it from day to day.

7. I will bet...

...that the bomber is a lone nut who believes in some sort of conspiracy theory.

5. How can it be false flag if there's no flag?

Nobody has claimed responsibility, so how can anyone claim it's not who they say it was?

6. What a dumb question.

Of course the governor is going to deny it.

8. The troll was an Infowars "reporter."

I'm grateful he was pretty well ignored.

Alex Jones On Boston Blasts: U.S. Gov't Is "Prime Suspect"

InfoWars Reporter Asks Massachusetts Governor: "Is This Another False Flag Staged Attack?"

In the immediate wake of deadly explosions at the Boston marathon, Alex Jones and his website InfoWars.com have breathlessly preached conspiracy theories about the as-yet-unknown perpetrators of the attack, claiming the blast was set off or staged by the U.S. government in what Jones called a "false flag operation." The theorizing culminated in an InfoWars correspondent asking a visibly angry Massachusetts Gov. Patrick Deval, "Is this another false flag staged attack to take our civil liberties and promote Homeland Security while sticking their hands down our pants on the streets?"

(snip)

His theorizing culminated in an InfoWars correspondent, Dan Bidondi, questioning Gov. Deval about the conspiracy directly.
