Shortly after posting my first thoughts on this subject I came across this post at the Above Top Secret blog: http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread864644/pg1. It was the title that caught my attention: "10 key points of evidence that point to a conspiracy in the Batman/Colorado shooting".
Most of the "points" aren't evidence at all and the ones that are, don't point to any kind of conspiracy. Saying that witnesses didn't agree with each other or with the police, is something that can be said of most criminal incidents. It's something that annoys investigators and fascinates psychologists: eye-witnesses are not reliable.
Saying there's no papertrail for the perpetrator's purchase of the weapons used presumes that the police has no papertrail. More likely, there is a documentary trail of the purchase, but the police haven't shared it with the media (or this blogger) yet. And why should they? It will be used in court.
In another instance, the blogger finds it sinister that one of the witnesses gave an accurate description of the alleged gunman. After the shooting, she was found face-down on the floor -- so how could she have seen him? Well, how about she saw his face, saw his gun -- and ducked?! Later posts deal with all 10 points without straining too many brain-cells.
It's a classic case of wanting a conspiracy and then desperately trying to find something to support the idea.
