  • Alex Jones's lawyer: Jones is a performance artist

    Confirming what we already knew. It would destroy his brand if his fans were that interested in facts.

    "Judging Jones by his Infowars performances would be like judging Jack Nicholson by his depiction of the Joker on "Batman," Wilhite told state District Judge Orlinda Naranjo last week".

    "I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

    Obviously what his lawyer says in the middle of a custody trial is gospel truth.
    "As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths." Isaiah 3:12

    There is no such thing as innocence, only degrees of guilt.

      The timing of it being a custody trial is irrelevant. He can't claim to be credible when it suits him and noncredible when it doesn't.

        I've seen more than one friend go through divorce court.
        It is lies from the opening bell.
        Actually YOU put Trump in the White House. He wouldn't have gotten 1% of the vote if it wasn't for the widespread spiritual and cultural devastation caused by progressive policies. There's no "this country" left with your immigration policies, your "allies" are worthless and even more suicidal than you are and democracy is a sick joke that I hope nobody ever thinks about repeating when the current order collapses. - Darth_Executor striking a conciliatory note in Civics 101

          If Alex Jones isn't performing when on his show, then I'm not sure it's safe for his children to be around him. Not unless he's radically different when at home.

            I can think of several jobs where earnest and sincere participation in the job might make one wonder if that person should be allowed to raise children.
            This is only a consideration in Alex Jones' case because he his a hated public figure.
            It would be a disgrace anywhere else.

              So is Alex Jones going to renounce his claims that the earth is controlled by a race of alien inter-dimensional lizard people, and that Obama and Hillary have a strong sulfurous stench about them and attract flies due to being demonically possessed, in order to keep custody of his kids? He does already seem to have backed off the Hillary running a child prostitution ring out of a pizza shop claims.

              What will right-wingers do if Alex Jones stops telling them the Truth, now that they've lost Bill O'Reilly to his sex scandals and Milo Yiannopoulos to his endorsement of pedophilia?

                  Why not?

                  Personally I can't stand the guy, but I am sure he can claim to be credible on some things and exaggerating on others.

                      The last few times I tried to post videos of his worst moments they got deleted on tweb. However in those videos he's either overacting, or is clearly a mentally disturbed person.

                        I have never really listened to him other than clips here and there, but my impression is that he is like Rush Limbaugh for conspiracy theories: Loud, brash, over-the-top.

                        and nuts.

                          I'm not competent for judging whether a person is so insane that they're not longer functional. But anyone who's seen his rants about fish people, and illuminati, and democratic politicians being satanists having orgies inside sarcophaghi to gain power from Satan... you have to wonder what sort of pills he forgot to take.

                          I can't post him though because he tends to swear a lot when he gets really angry.

                            And if Trump thinks he is credible, then yeah, that's bad. Trump seems pretty gullible on conspiracy theories, like being Anti-vaxx and so on. Not good for a President.

                              It's hard to take complaints about conspiracy theories seriously anymore. The left spent the entire Bush presidency claiming he was behind 9/11 and it looks like they're gonna spend the Trump presidency claiming, with even less evidence, that Trump is a Russian puppet. As far as I can tell the only problem conspiracy theorists like Leonhard have with Alex Jones is that his conspiracy theories serve no progressive political purpose.
