You were referring to our morals between human and animal. I referred back that the poor and homeless are treated in some ways worse than animals on a factory farm. While the poor and homeless aren't slaughtered for food, they are forgotten when it comes to health care, food, and even shelter.
Sorry, niner, what confused me was "Well, if that were entirely true..." ?? -- If
what were entirely true? Is this a tu quoque?
Won't know that. What if there is a volcanic eruption like Krakatoa? That would totally change the computer models. Or a solar flare event? Like I said, there are invariables that aren't considered in computer models that can change the outcome.
Won't know what? That weather computer models will be revised? Computers keep getting more powerful and scientists keep discovering new data and variables to feed into their predictive algorithms. The models change weekly!
Krakatoa did cause widespread destruction and it changed Earth's weather for a few years, but it was, essentially, a
local, episodic event. It changed weather, not climate. These little catastrophes happen all the time, geologically speaking.
Destruction of property by fire (arson) is a felony and if done maliciously by a "rights or extreme group" is viewed as an act of terrorism.
If someone robbed someone without harming them, it's still robbery.
Yes, it's robbery -- but it's not terrorism, and sure it's a felony -- and the American revolution was treason and Jesus committed sedition. What's your point?
The term "terrorism" has been hijacked by the Right Wing ever since 9/11. It's become a buzzword for the boogeyman du jour. They expanded its meaning to include everything scary or disorderly, even political dissent.
Don't buy into it. Vandalism is not "terrorism."
