Stein: When we just saw that man, I think it was Mr. Myers [i.e. biologist P.Z. Myers], talking about how great scientists were, I was thinking to myself the last time any of my relatives saw scientists telling them what to do they were telling them to go to the showers to get gassed … that was horrifying beyond words, and that’s where science — in my opinion, this is just an opinion — that’s where science leads you.

That's about the 5643rd time that this quote has been trotted out to invalidate anything Mr. Stein has done or may ever do in his life. He was being interviewed. He spoke off the cuff. This quote is something that he said. Given a chance, I bet he'd be glad to clarify his view on this matter.

I hardly think his movie can be passed off as garbage based on one thing he said conversationally.

OK, then. From now on, I assume that you'll be defending Hillary, Obama, et al from FReepers who quote "off the cuff" comments where they reveal their pro-socalist mindset?
