Debunked: Sandy Hook: Nuns wearing comfortable shoes

[Mick]

What?

Now normally I try to refrain from mocking, it's not helpful, it's distracting. But it's really impossible to take this Infowars story seriously. You'd think it was some caricature story from The Onion, yet here it is:

Sadly this is not the worst of it. There's other stories out there about how the nuns are men in drag, and how the taller one is "obviously" concealing a long gun under her coat.

And yes, they are serious.

Is it even worth debunking? No, not really. But it's worth pointing out just how insane the accusations have become. Again, I don't like to use words like "insane", because it's distracting. But in this case it's probably even more jarring to actually dignify these accusations with some kind of seriousness.

But here we go, if you can't get it just by looking at this large photo, then I suggest you take a break from the internet for a while.



They are nuns. They are wearing comfy shoes.

And here's the "blatant identification badge"


[Update after Solrey's post below] Here's the ID badge with the logo of the nearby St. Rose School. Clearly that's what it is.

this doesnt explain why police mentioned on radio 2 men fleeing in what appears to be nun suits

They must be with the St. Rose of Lima Catholic School in Newtown, the school crest and the one on the badge are identical.



Whoever said nuns are not indigenous to the area is either ill-informed or lying.

So you are suggesting two nuns did the shooting, then stayed around to comfort the survivors?

Indeed, and as can be seen from their facebook page, that's how they dress.

Where you come from anecdote is probably accepted as truth, so I'm not really surprised you feel no impulse to back up that claim.

It's just proves the point that people would put out anything to prove that the SH is a hoax. The problem and the sad part it is that they're overreading into too much of every single detail and falsely accusing innocent people.

Did the police actually say "nun suits"? does anyone have a link for that? I'd love to see it, or even better hear it!

The most likely explanation for which is that he saw some nuns.
