Hes kind of retarded but entertaining.

...I think he is just an opportunist who makes a little cash off others fears. I don't know how much of his own stuff even he believes.
---
...I listen to him once in a while and have came to the conclusion that Jones is paranoid schizophrenic due to his inability to understand satire and sarcasm.
---
AJ is full-blown rubber room material.
---
HOLY CRAP! What a freakin NUT-JOB he is! LOL... wow...
---
The only difference between him and David Icke is his boogeymen arent reptilian aliens.
---
I actually like Alex Jones.
---
Once in a while, I listen to him as comedy.
Not a good sign when most Freepers view you as crazy.

I'm on here I'm not like Alex Jones and I have mental illness .People with mental illness deal with enough stigma.Than being associated with mass killers and people like the ignorant right wing or alex jones.
Alex Jones,call him a charlatan feeding off people's fears,call him an asshole,a pos,an attention seeking bottom feeder. If he is mentally ill,he needs help not hate,and lastly if he is a con man he isn't mentally ill..he's an asshole.

Drunken Irishman
(34,857 posts)In high school, back in the early 00s, a few friends and I went up to the mountains for the weekend. We were just going to camp, drink, you know, chill and do nothing but have a good time. Anyway, it was a three-day weekend, but I had to come back on Sunday instead of Monday because I had some family event early on Sunday. So, I stayed up there as long as I could and then left the mountains for my home (which was about 4 hours away). The drive back, in late evening, early morning, I listened to Art Bell and his Ghost to Ghost. It was terrifying. I was the only car on the highway cutting through these mountains ... pure black outside and all alone.

(23,796 posts)Jones doesn't cater to the reasonable and the calm. He makes his money off the darkest spittle-flecked nightmares of a paranoid person's imagination. What else would he do when given a national audience?

(4,667 posts)Alex Jones is a radio host. He talks about conspiracy stuff. His radio show is very popular. He use to be in the "Art Bell" class of radio shows (UFO/Bigfoot that kind of stuff). But now like a lot of the old UFO conspiracy shows (Art Bell, Jeff Rense) they have really shifted right over the last few years. And today they are a part of the growing right wing media echo chamber with regard to birtherism, NATO, Government take-over, etc. etc. etc.

No Compromise
(373 posts)Alex jones rallied the original tea party people who were against the bailout, the wars, the Big Brother slush funds....before freedomworks took over.
Glenn Beck basically usurped the movement that Alex Jones had created which supported Ron Paul, who was against the wars and the bailouts, to something more socially acceptable for psychopathic 'normal' conservatives...racism and idiocy.
Glenn Beck now says he is the leader of the tea party and bashes Ron Paul.

(3,073 posts)i sort of agree - which is disturbing. I've always thought there's a good possibility that Bushco was in on the whole thing (although may be not W himself - or not the whole story but I would not put it past Chaney and rummy and tge neocons)...

NoPasaran
(17,291 posts)I just went through a bunch of right wing and libertarian websites to see what they thought of the interview and just about off of em are distancing themselves from this lunatic.
I am sure most people here would like it if he was truly the voice of the right wing, but fortunately for all of us, he is not. He is a one man idiot squad, who actually says somethings I agree with and says a whole lot of shit that also makes you scratch your head. I think he was booked to discredit the pro 2nd amendment people in this country. Just imagine tomorrow of CNN, Piers can point to his and say "see, this raving lunatic has 50 fire arms in his possession, do you want people like him having 50 fire arms?"

(20,600 posts)whether you agree with him or not. I don't agree with much of what Jones says, but that doesn't mean he is wrong on everything. Just like most things, it is not a black and white answer, but shades of gray.
Jones is wrong about everything.

Yep, Alex Jones is wrong about everything.
