Writing for Forbes Magazine, climate change alarmist Steve Zwick calls for skeptics of man-made global warming to be tracked, hunted down and have their homes burned to the ground, yet another shocking illustration of how eco-fascism is rife within the environmentalist lobby.

Excuse me for bringing this up, but wouldn't burning a house release carbon into the atmosphere?

Where There Is Smoke There IS TOXINS

Seems it's a bad idea to burn down a home for enviromental violations. The Arson offence would truly show a few eco folks what a harsh enviroment looks like from behind the walls.

If one bothers to read the actual source article, rather than the sensationalized Drudge headline linking to an even more sensationalized piece posted on one of the most non-credible websites out there (infowars.com - a leisure service of congenital crackpot Alex Jones), one sees that the author said nothing of the kind.

One can certainly disagree with Zwick's conclusions, but one can not, in fairness, argue that he called for burning down people's homes.

This type of inflammatory, out-of-context escalation via blogosphere is ludicrous and embarrassing. I expect it from the hard left. I expect much more of conservatives.

If they all committed suicide that would help a lot with so much less methane in the world. They should set an example and race to be the first one.

Eagle, did you read his "addendum"? He already re-wrote parts of the original article to take back what he originally wrote.

He did not say burn the houses down. He did say, in essence, if a "denier's" house is on fire, lets punish him for his beliefs by letting it burn. He tries to point to those who are lying about the global warming silliness but I get his meaning that ALL deniers, whether actually disbelieving this stuff or not are to be punished while the true at heart loyalists are to be protected.

I will bet serious money this nut-job is a moon-bat Liberal.

I'm surprised that Forbes would hire such a demented individual in the first place.

I just get tired of the hypocrisy...... For some reason these people think that just because they smear the ashes of a few dead trees on their sweatless little furrowed brows that they are somehow.... much more proactive and concerned about global climate change, the environment .etc.And dammit they should be listened to!!!NOW!!!!
When the simple truth is they continue to suck up just as many resources as the average Joe or Jane infact probably more (see algore self proclaimed president of the world).
That computer they keep pounding the messages out onand that little compact car they drive that was manufactured someplace in the environmentlal no-mans land where the smoke pours into the air 24/7 are all lost on these pedantic bozos who can't make that quantum leap from a tree in the woods to a roll of toilet paper in their bathroom.....Let someone's house burn down.... suspend democracy..all in the name of environmetal justice.... wowser......????? These folks are candidates as passengers on Vonnegut's Sirens of Titan.......

Farenheit 451 would be a better fit for these people's view of how the world should be.

Apollo, I read the original article several days ago, before any addendums or alleged rewrites. At the time I thought it dumb of Drudge to even carry it, let alone headline it the way he did.

I still do.
