Sorry everyone. I got a cease and desist email regarding this thread. I find the things the email said in it shocking. I would post it but it says on it that there could be fines/prison for retransmitting it. I am 100% certain this was a cover up now. Thanks for all of the contributions to this thread. Please continue the search for the truth, I have been shut down for now.
EDIT: I have been encouraged to hold strong so I am reposting initial report. Wish me luck..

I'm not sure Jeff wants us linking to GLP so added "dot" for the dot. Anyway threads appear to be disappearing there too. Bottom line: the Rodia debunk seems to be a fail, but the LIBOR debunk might be accurate. Apparently that one originated on an Alex Jones show. I haven't looked into it.
The Rodia threads at AboveTopSecret were deleted because they violated the Terms and Conditions of Use of the forum which specifically prohibit libel and defamation of private individuals. Here's what one of the site admins
had to say:I will repost, again, what I posted in other threads dealing with Sandy Hook, because I want it known how I -- one of the chief architects of what ATS is today -- thinks of our membership in respect to the subject:
The Tragedy at Sandy Hook
HAS BROUGHT OUT THE WORST
of AboveTopSecret.com
I and our staff have witnessed the most incredible shameless self-absorbed credulous nonsense from our members following one of the worst horrors ever to hit a small community -- much less any community.
And this thread is the absolute worst display of your ludicrous narcissistic conjecture -- outing personal details of a private citizen and mocking him on the pages of our precious ATS for the world to see.
You should be ashamed -- but clearly, you're not capable of that.
This site, and its discussion board, was refashioned between 2003 and 2005 to hold conspiracy speculation to a higher standard and ideal than the typical mayhem and lunacy that was then popular throughout Internet communities dealing with similar subject matter. Our motto of "Deny Ignorance" was a call to action to be skeptical critical thinkers with regard to official stories and the ever worsening mass media. We took a great deal of flak, absorbed consistent criticism, and often saw ourselves smeared simply for holding to our ideals that these subjects deserve better of us. ATS management and staff held strong, never wavered, and grew to one of the most popular discussion boards of any topic.
The wildly foolish self-absorbed conjecture regarding the massacre in Newtown, CT has, in my opinion, thrown the quality of conversation on ATS all the way back to how horrible it was before we started our 6 years of hard work. Posting personal information of private citizens, then casting nasty aspersions on them, is the lowest of lows I've ever seen on this site for which I was once proud.
Those who have the urge to speculate on the minute oddities of the "story line" as is currently known should take fair warning that if the ethical quality of the discussion does not immediately improve, the staff will have no choice but to place a temporary hold on all discussions related to the massacre.
The staff and I will not let you ruin our years of hard work and suffer your ridiculousness.
I find it a bit frightening to find out that the forums at Above Top Secret are being held to a higher ethical standard than we have here. But whatever.
Regarding the "cease and desist" email referenced at GLP, the OP of that thread has apparently ignored the email, but won't release the contents of the email on the thread. This puts the reader in the odd position of having to take his word on the threat while at the same time reading a bunch of people on the thread claim that there was simply no shooting at all: no victims, all the parents were actors, etc.
So over at God Like Pro, despite the dozens of public funerals, eye-witnesses, and probably thousands of people personally affected by the deaths at the school... there was no shooting, the whole thing was a fake. On the other hand, an anonymous poster claims to have received a threat that he won't reveal to anyone there and it's treated as god's own truth. It's sad, embarrassing, and funny at the same time. I believe the word for that is "pathetic".
