Folks think the Sandy Hook Shooting was a Government hoax? And,...they're armed?

From Yahoo news:

Man who helped Sandy Hook kids is harassed by conspiracy theorists

A man who found six children in his driveway in Newtown, Conn., after their teacher had been shot and killed in last month's school massacre has become the target of conspiracy theorists who believe the shootings were staged.

“I don’t know what to do,” Gene Rosen told Salon.com. “I’m getting hang-up calls, I’m getting some calls, I’m getting emails with, not direct threats, but accusations that I’m lying, that I’m a crisis actor, ‘How much am I being paid?'”

Rosen, a 69-year-old retired psychologist who lives near Sandy Hook Elementary School where the shootings took place, says his inbox is filled with emails like this one:

How are all those little students doing? You know, the ones that showed up at your house after the ‘shooting’. What is the going rate for getting involved in a gov’t sponsored hoax anyway?

Update:

I believe I can begin to understand how devastating an ideal one believes in becomes an unimaginable emotional betrayal.

Judgment of anyone is not my goal.

Acceptance of the results is.

Jumping on a conspiracy theory to lighten the horror is abandoning your own beliefs,

    It's the epitome of a highly superstitious religious fantasy culture where it's easier to find conspiracies believable than to recognize the central god complex held by most obsessive fear-driven gun/rifle/assault weapon and ammunition hoarders who eagerly defend their weapons of death than admit for one second that their "hobby" is actually a sacrosanct disease of death culture where possessing and using instruments of death are more valuable than human life itself.

    Yeah, I could see the insanity mentality that would convince some people to believe a ludicrous anti-slaughter scenario that obviously plays well with Obama haters who may believe he's whatever the hate-media tells them he is regardless of the fact that Obama has been a thousand times more conservative than his predecessor and is an admitted blue-dog democrat.

    I stay 25 miles from Newtown. I lived interior the area my total life. i'm in my 50's. i know many human beings and that i got here upon it form of wierd that i don't know of absolutely everyone who has stated they know somebody that had a newborn shot lifeless in Sandy Hook. it incredibly is a crimson flag for me. on the different hand; choosing a small uncomplicated college interior the hills of Connecticut to faux something would not make lots experience the two. Why there are conspiracy theorists thinking activities like that's the lack of ability of seen data. We see no longer something because of the fact the media would not choose to disenchanted the viewer any further then they must. have faith what you like. i'm on the fence with this. i don't have faith we killed Bin weighted down! yet it incredibly is for yet another communicate.

    This poor guy likely had nothing to do with it, but what about the nuns? The 2nd shooter? The memorial reports and fund raiser pages put up 4 days prior to the shooting? The lack of wounded? The complete absence of any recorded evidence of this event?

    A couple dozen school-aged children mean nothing- NOTHING to the people who are powerful enough to set up things like this.

    It is hard to believe that Mr. Rosen was involved in a conspiracy to murder children. I wouldn't put it past our gov't to stoop to a measure such as that to pass gun control laws that in actuality hurt the honest citizen..and does nothing to keep guns out of folks that have no criminal record or mental health issues who are the perpetrators..
