What?  Did you really believe all that?

Why?

What kind of a conspiracy would put out public ads?  Ads that spell out the word “FALSE” no less. Read the list of categories of people wanted again, from top to bottom, and only look at the first letter:

  • Female bystanders
  • African-American fathers
  • Latino teachers
  • Special needs children
  • Elementary school aged children

And even if a PR company (or anyone else) would want to set up a fake school shooting or some other massacre, what would they have to gain by using actors?  Wouldn’t first responders notice immediately the victims weren’t real?  And if they used fake first responders too, wouldn’t the real police get suspicious really quick about all those cars with flashing blue lights showing up on their turf?

Oh, but what if they only used some fake mourners and family and made the killer and the victims and the first responders real?

What purpose would that serve?  Wouldn’t the real people involved in such a tragedy cry in front of the camera?  And if you are looking for people among the survivors and their families that want to ban or restrict guns after such a trauma I’m pretty sure you could find a few real ones without much effort.

It would literally be a waste of money to hire actors for that and it would add a huge risk of discovery for little benefit.  Most conspiracies aren’t that dumb.  The people who believe in them on the other hand…
