So you want to destroy lots more crabs, as well as lobsters, sea birds, and marine mammals, including critically endangered Atlantic Right Whales with offshore wind turbines? "Save the Whales" used to be an environmentalist rallying cry, but now the climate alarmists consider whales just collateral damage in their mad drive to industrialize our oceans with wind turbines.

Short term events like the one you are talking about have nothing to do with CO2 except to the climate alarmist kool aid drinkers like you, Little Bobbie. It was a short term natural event and it is now over.

A poll tax has been determined to be unconstitutional by the SC. But I bet you remember them, Mr. Crow

Climate conditions do indeed change, and then change back the other way. It is a natural process that has gone on since the Earth has existed. Those Alaskan ocean conditions have now changed back. It like certain coral reefs that the climate alarmists claimed were dead beyond repair from "global warming" but then did come back.

The climate alarmist fear mongers have made lots of dire predictions, and dozens of them have already reached or passed the point they were supposed to happen, but NONE of them have actually come true. Anyone who continues to believe the climate alarmist poppycock is an idiot and a mindless lemming.

Those special masters hired ultra-partisan Democrat assistant special masters who actually drew the maps, gerrymandered for Democrats. All of that was driven by an extrmme Democrat partisan on the state Supreme Court, far left Justice Anita ("Antifa") Earls. It is good that the court-driven Democrat gerrymandered has bit the dust. It is a noxious and undemocratic power grab for a court to usurp the Constitutional power of elected legislators to draw districts.

Nope. Was when he lost the election and told his advisers he had no plans to leave DC and would stay in power. Then planned and allowed the old white men to storm the capitol to hang the VP. The clowns in Georgia are rolling on Trump like Grant took Richmond.

The Southern Poverty Law Center is the totalitarian group pushing this poisonous agenda in the United States, yet there was not a peep out of them about all the hate that has been coming out of the left and the Muslims against Jews and Israel.

The First Amendment is under just as much attack by the left and far left as the Second Amendment is.

Hooray for Texas! Now they need to start arresting and prosecuting feds who help illegal aliens enter Texas. Mayorkas, that skinhead Castro Cuban, is ordering this, so he needs to be arrested, too, and jailed.

Hitler was elected but started acting like a dictator by ruling by executive order, just like Biden has done. Trying to jail your political opponents is also the mark of a dictator.

Actually, the closest thing the United States has had to a dictator was Abraham Lincoln, who abolished habeas corpus, jailed elected Maryland state legislators without formal charges as political prisoners, forced a Congressional opponent, Congressman Clement Van Landingham, to flee the country, suppressed freedom of the press and speech, and otherwise goosestepped all over Constitutional freedoms. Of course, during that time, North Carolina's president was named Jefferson Davis, so none of those things happened in our state.

Climate does change. It is hot in the summer and cold in the winter. Multi-year cycles include things like the El Nino / La Nina cycles. Then there are the multi-century warming and cooling cycles like the Medieval Warm Period and the Little Ice Age. The claim that human CO2 has anything to do with it is just political poppycock pushed by the globalists. Listen to the prominent scientists interviewed in the British TV documentary "The Great Global Warming Swindle".

At least twice, I have heard Biden express how efficient authoritarianism is. He sounded like a man who yearned for the same power.

But dont all the power-hungry, at all levels yearn for that quick easy efficient way to get what they are pushing. Yes even at a small city govt level, that sort of power can be created, when those who are elected surrender their ability to make judgements, to the city manager. Authoritarianism shows itself. Everytime a council member says, "I dont know, I'll have to ask the city manager, we see it raise its ugly head.
I have seen things in Washington that reveal we too are a police state. It happens when no attorney will take a case that challenges the city govt and its police. If I'm wrong, tell me who takes cases like that?

Was it the "mean tweets" that triggered you, Big Bob?
