Unpredictable. Unfocused. Just like life.

There are actually people who think that since it is illegal to deny the Holocaust, it should also be illegal to deny climate change:

Whoever thought that serious commentators would want it made illegal to have a row about the weather? One Australian columnist has proposed outlawing ‘climate change denial’. ‘David Irving is under arrest in Austria for Holocaust denial’, she wrote. ‘Perhaps there is a case for making climate change denial an offence. It is a crime against humanity, after all.’ (1) Others have suggested that climate change deniers should be put on trial in the future, Nuremberg-style, and made to account for their attempts to cover up the ‘global warming…Holocaust’ (2).

I'm not clear on how a historic event involving the death of millions of Jews can be compared to something that might or might not happen in the future. I'm also not clear on how stifling discussion on climate change can be a positive thing.

Tip of the hat to small dead animals.
