    Default Will lefties euthanize their pets?

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencete...ping-pets.html

    According to the latest from the revered global warming scientists, owning pets is equivalent to having 13 million cars on the planet.

    You pet owners are driving us to global peril

    Who will be the first lefty to sacrifice Fido in the name of saving Mother Erf?

    I saw this thought it was the onion at first but it appears to not be humor. Guess animals scare them.

    LOL Long ago I read a quote that 'people who love animals haven't lowered their pride enough to love humans'. I cannot find the source but I believe it was a French writer. Anyway, we grew up scruffy as there were too many of us and one of our aunts loved her animals while she looked at us as ragamuffins. That must have influenced the way I and other family view animal lovers. I'd never have a pet, and many so called liberals I know don't either. Many of our republican friends, many well to do, have pets and spend a fortune on them. I find pets fill a void for people even married people. I find that odd as the idea of needing an animal is alien to me but I know people more liberal who have comfort dogs who visit the sick. - enough rambling gotta drop.

    Later edit: Funny how things in America find themselves located in categories that can then be easily used to praise or derogate another. But surely many others things can be managed without taking the lonely person's only friend in life.

    I had a opportunity to check with all my liberal pet owners and no, no plans to euthanasia, but they say thanks for asking and being concerned.

    is this stupid shit from the same group that said cow farts were destroying the ozone layer??????
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    Yes, we do. But anyone alive must realize if they are open to reality that climate is changing and has been for some time.

    A prime example of why Alarmists are not taken seriously. I was obviously being facetious about euthanizing our pets as a 'solution' to getting colder weather and one of the most serious posters on the board agrees.

    I don't think people concerned with climate change are being alarmists? Change is obvious if you live or visit near the oceans and bays of America. Climate change is a scientific fact, like other complex issues such as smoking or asbestos or water pollution and even air pollution. Look at the air quality in large cities. Polluters and others push Agnotology as doubt is an effective tool when issues are made political rather than practical. I doubt most climate change deniers drink lead water, smoke, or fill their homes with asbestos, but I bet you could find people arguing about these issues still. People oppose knowledge for reasons that often seem absurd to someone studying the phenomenon. Why some people even believe in germs, I ain't ever seen one have you?

    "What don't we know, and why don't we know it? What keeps ignorance alive, or allows it to be used as a political instrument? Agnotology—the study of ignorance—provides a new theoretical perspective to broaden traditional questions about "how we know" to ask: Why don't we know what we don't know?"
