Charles Manson becomes an advocate for global warming

From the Daily Mail, probably the worst alliance you could hope for if you are in the global warming movement. Manson says in a from prison interview:

‘Everyone’s God and if we don’t wake up to that there’s going to be no weather because our polar caps are melting because we’re doing bad things to the atmosphere.

‘If we don’t change that as rapidly as I’m speaking to you now, if we don’t put the green back on the planet and put the trees back that we’ve butchered, if we don’t go to war against the problem…’ he added, trailing off.

I didn’t know they gave Internet access in prison. Or maybe it’s old magazines. Either way, not the sort of advocate you dream about having.

Well at least he isn’t a climate denier! Just a cold blooded, nutter, murderer. /sarc

Which reminds me of Jeffrey Dahmer’s shrink, who was worried about old Jeff’s racist predilictions. Kind of think he had bigger issues to deal with.

The media is sinking to lower depths everyday.

Tell me, tell me, tell me the answer…
Ol’ Charlie knows how to anticipate trends in negative press.

No doubt the UN would give him some podium time this coming Wed. to share his views and give his support to Bolivia’s agenda item regarding “Mother Earth’s” legal rights. This would be right up their alley.

His take on Helter Skelter seems to have more scientific gravitas than the one on butchering trees. OTOH, he’s more upfront with you than the hockey stick kids. Is Charles Manson to race relations what Jim Hansen is to climate?

Is he trying to gain parole?
Maybe he’s gunning for some grant funding – you know, something like a study into how many murders are committed as a result of inreased temps since 1950? – or maybe a paper along the lines of ‘AGW cooked my brain – and look what happened!’

I guess they can’t get WUWT in prison….They’re only allowed covers to Time magazine?
Or…Maybe Charlie can see the poles from his room…

He’s just giving in to peer pressure and agreeing with the rest of the concensus.
If the only news you had about climate was the mainstream media, after being locked up for nearly 40 years, I’m sure you would be shocked and fearfull.
But really; Is this any worse than having Al Gore on your side?

With advocates like that, who needs skeptics?

Well… Actually if you think about it, it is not that surprising to discover that Charles Manson has joined ranks with Micheal Mann, Al Gore, James Hansen, Phil Jones and others that hate and are frankly, barking mad.
Unfortunately I’m not being sarcastic…

Prince Charles says much the same thing (has anyone seen the two of them together?)

I prefer WUWT without these tabloid interludes. This one is not even funny.

Oh boy! First Ehrlich and Holdren and now Manson. All the 70’s Hippies are climbing on board. At least Manson didn’t advocate mass sterilization, he took ’em one at a time.

irrelevent non issue This person should not be given any media attention in my opinion.

I don’t believe that facts should be overshadowed by opinions from any person, no matter how famous (or infamous) they may be.
Hitler believed the sky was blue. Stalin thought the Earth was round. Mao tse-tung thought that evolution was correct.
Does that mean that because I affirm the sky is blue, the Earth is round and that evolution is correct, that I therefore believe in the teachings of Hitler, Stalin or Mao?
So Charles Manson thinks the poles are melting – so what?

Manson’s fan cult has a web page: http://www.atwa.be/map.html
When you read his words, remember this is the result of 50 years of schizophrenia. The claims of being a victim are part of that, but his radical green view are too. What excuse do other greens have?

The people that don’t think that this is appropriate for WUWT need to lighten up. A big difference between proponents and deniers is our ability to laugh from time to time. Accept it for what it’s worth, have a laugh and get back to proving that the proponents are wrong, AND are miserable.

We seem to be commiting the ad-hominem fallacy here. He is a totally mental serial killer so he must be wrong. He is wrong but him being a totally mental serial killer isn’t the issue.
