What is a worst crime.
Alex Jones is a conman that went too far. He had been spinning his nonsense even before Sandy Hook and making a lot of money doing it. He knew what he was saying was false, but he didn't care. What was worse is that he was lying to his own followers, and they bought into it. Not only did his followers believe his lies, but these are the type of people that take action.
You can say his believers are a fringe group, but I think we are becoming aware that followers of these outlandish stories rank in the millions. It doesn't matter what proof you put in front of them, they would rather believe there is a conspiracy behind it all.
