YOU'RE A GLOBAL WARMING SKEPTIC? THEN YOU'RE A CRIMINAL!
I'm a global warming skeptic. I believe that there has been some warming of the Earth's atmosphere over the last 20 years or so, but I do not believe that this warming has been primarily caused by man. In fact, I don't believe man has been much of a factor at all.
That makes me a criminal. That means I should be put on trial for "crimes against humanity."
This is the idea of David Roberts, a staff writer for Grist magazine. You may not have heard of Grist, but Al Gore has. Bill Moyers the hard-left so-called "newsman" from PBS has. They've granted interviews to Grist to push their global warming agendas. David Roberts is now calling for trials for war-crimes trials for people who express doubts that global warming is caused by man. He calls these people "bastards" and refers to the global warming "denial industry." Roberts is suggesting trials for these skeptics that mirror the Nuremberg trials for those responsible for the Holocaust.
Al Gore seems to be part of the Roberts crowd. He calls people like me "global warming deniers," a not so vague reference to "Holocaust deniers." An odd phrase for Gore to use considering the fact that his buddy Roberts is calling for Nuremburg-style trials.
So ... this is the status of free speech in 21st Century America for anyone who disagrees with the thoughts put forth by the anti-capitalist environmental crowd.
Do I need a lawyer yet?
I remember that!
I also remember laughing my frozen derriere off.
uh, make that Nazi Racist!!!
there...
It was warmer 4500 years ago.
BTTT! :)
~snicker!~ Sssshhh! Don't tell Gore! He doesn't have any other gigs right now! ;op
I mentioned that only because I was just now reading a book on the units of measure used in Stonehenge and they mentioned the crops that were grown there and in Ireland then, which it is too cool for now.
