Political Leaders Should be Jailed for Questioning Global Warming

Canada's National Post reported Thursday that David Suzuki, a Canadian scientist and high-profile television personality has called for the jailing of political leaders that ignore the junk science behind the anthropogenic global warming myth.

At a Montreal conference last Thursday, Suzuki exhorted a packed house of 600 to hold politicians legally accountable for what he called an intergenerational crime. Though a spokesman said yesterday the call for imprisonment was not meant to be taken literally, Dr. Suzuki reportedly made similar remarks in an address at the University of Toronto last month:

"What I would challenge you to do is to put a lot of effort into trying to see whether there's a legal way of throwing our so-called leaders into jail because what they're doing is a criminal act," said Dr. Suzuki.
Yet, for those actually interested in real science and not the inflammatory hyperbole folks like Suzuki and Nobel Laureate Al Gore are disingenuously peddling, the following statement by the Canadian was quite telling:

"It's an intergenerational crime in the face of all the knowledge and science from over 20 years."
And therein lies the problem, Doctor: all you folks advancing this myth are only interested in recent statistics and data.

By contrast, those truly researching climate choose to look at numbers and measurements through the millennia to reach conclusions about how today's weather-related observations compare to the past. You should try it sometime, Doctor. It's called "Science."
