    Getting them money was a good thing though. The lies spread by Jones caused these people to have to relocate, hire protection, etc which costed them out of pocket. The assets for InfoWars should definitely have been sold off to pay. Even though I disagree with pretty much everything that man says I still support his right to speak so banning him from the internet doesn’t seem right. Yes ban him anywhere he violated community guidelines which is pretty much everywhere his channel is currently

      I’m not saying it’s a bad thing, I’m saying they didn’t do it for the money. They all know that not one dime of that money will make up for being harassed while grieving over their dead children.
