Global Warming Skepticism: Crime Against Humanity

I'd normally write something like this off as the demented ravings of another Leftist, but with some people advocating jail for speaking against homosexuality, and people getting fired for blasphemy against the religion of global warming, I suppose I have to take it seriously.

Climate scientist James Hansen is calling for trials against global warming blasphemers; from the language, if liberals believed in capital punishment, I'd expect he'd be looking to execute global warming skeptics.

From the Guardian in Britain:

James Hansen, one of the world's leading climate scientists, will today call for the chief executives of large fossil fuel companies to be put on trial for high crimes against humanity and nature, accusing them of actively spreading doubt about global warming in the same way that tobacco companies blurred the links between smoking and cancer.

Ooooooookay!

If anyone should be put on trial for using their free speech in an abusive manner, it should be Hansen and others like him. They have bad data, flawed claims and a lot of conjecture to back up their sci-fi claims that defy common sense, ignore historic temperature cycles, ignore temperature changes on planets with no SUVs, and pretend that tens of thousands of other scientists who disagree with them don't exist. And they have the call to imply that skeptics are deceiving people?

This takes the saying about the pot calling the kettle black to a whole new level!

Thank you. It's obvious that Hansen does not have the truth on his side when he has to resort to censoring.

Hansen is the one who needs lots of explaining. The sci-fi prophet, who acts as if his words are the future, together with his cohorts should be the ones to be charged in court. He is using the government agency and letting himself to be used as an instrument in disseminating flawed and distorted data.
