When warmistas attack

Note: There’s a response and analysis to this post here.

NOTE: Predictably, Joe Romm has turned this post into a personal bashing of me over at his Climate Progress blog. For some eye opening viewpoints from his side of the argument, have a look at the 495 comments on his parent blog “Think Progress” here. UPDATE: many of those ugly and violent comments at TP have been “sanitized” since I drew embarrassing attention to them. The word “filthy” in my post below, is pointing to the multiple use of the word to describe humans in the manifesto of the gunman, also published below. I realize that may upset some people, and for that I apologize. However, it is instructive to read the manifesto to see how global warming hype drove this man to do what he did. From this MSNBC story:

Lee said he experienced an ‘‘awakening” when he watched former Vice President Al Gore’s environmental documentary ‘‘An Inconvenient Truth.”

UPDATE: It’s over, from MSNBC:

Police shot a gunman who held three hostages for several hours Wednesday at the Discovery Communications building in Silver Spring, Md., authorities said. They said the hostages were safe and the gunman was in custody. Police said the gunman’s condition was unknown. At least one explosive device went off when he was shot, and other explosive devices could still be in the building in Montgomery County in suburban Washington, D.C., they said.

UPDATE2: MSNBC is now reporting the gunman has been killed.

=======================================

Well, you filthy readers, see what happens when we don’t acquiesce? In case you haven’t heard by now, a gunman named James Lee, an Asian man with a years-long vendetta against the Discovery Channel cable network has entered the building and got an armed hostage taking situation going on right now.

Some news coverage here:

Armed Man Believed to Be Environmental Protester Takes Hostages in Discovery Channel Building

James Lee

Among his demands from the manifesto on his website:

Find solutions so that people stop breeding as well as stopping using Oil in order to REVERSE Global warming and the destruction of the planet!

MSNBC reports:

Lee said he experienced an ‘‘awakening” when he watched former Vice President Al Gore’s environmental documentary ‘‘An Inconvenient Truth.”

Perhaps inspired by Gore, and Dr. James Hansen’s recent call for civil disobedience, we have today’s environmental public relations train wreck turned armed hostage situation.

THE MANIFESTO OF JAMES LEE:

(downloaded before traffic took it down):PDF here at TMZ

The Discovery Channel MUST broadcast to the world their commitment to save the planet and to do the following IMMEDIATELY:

1. The Discovery Channel and it’s affiliate channels MUST have daily television programs at prime time slots based on Daniel Quinn’s “My Ishmael” pages 207-212 where solutions to save the planet would be done in the same way as the Industrial Revolution was done, by people building on each other’s inventive ideas. Focus must be given on how people can live WITHOUT giving birth to more filthy human children since those new additions continue pollution and are pollution. A game show format contest would be in order. Perhaps also forums of leading scientists who understand and agree with the Malthus-Darwin science and the problem of human overpopulation. Do both. Do all until something WORKS and the natural world starts improving and human civilization building STOPS and is reversed! MAKE IT INTERESTING SO PEOPLE WATCH AND APPLY SOLUTIONS!!!!

2. All programs on Discovery Health-TLC must stop encouraging the birth of any more parasitic human infants and the false heroics behind those actions. In those programs’ places, programs encouraging human sterilization and infertility must be pushed. All former pro-birth programs must now push in the direction of stopping human birth, not encouraging it.

3. All programs promoting War and the technology behind those must cease. There is no sense in advertising weapons of mass-destruction anymore. Instead, talk about ways to disassemble civilization and concentrate the message in finding SOLUTIONS to solving global military mechanized conflict. Again, solutions solutions instead of just repeating the same old wars with newer weapons. Also, keep out the fraudulent peace movements. They are liars and fakes and had no real intention of ending the wars. ALL OF THEM ARE FAKE! On one hand, they claim they want the wars to end, on the other, they are demanding the human population increase. World War II had 2 Billion humans and after that war, the people decided that tripling the population would assure peace. WTF??? STUPIDITY! MORE HUMANS EQUALS MORE WAR!

4. Civilization must be exposed for the filth it is. That, and all its disgusting religious-cultural roots and greed. Broadcast this message until the pollution in the planet is reversed and the human population goes down! This is your obligation. If you think it isn’t, then get hell off the planet! Breathe Oil! It is the moral obligation of everyone living otherwise what good are they??

5. Immigration: Programs must be developed to find solutions to stopping ALL immigration pollution and the anchor baby filth that follows that. Find solutions to stopping it. Call for people in the world to develop solutions to stop it completely and permanently. Find solutions FOR these countries so they stop sending their breeding populations to the US and the world to seek jobs and therefore breed more unwanted pollution babies. FIND SOLUTIONS FOR THEM TO STOP THEIR HUMAN GROWTH AND THE EXPORTATION OF THAT DISGUSTING FILTH! (The first world is feeding the population growth of the Third World and those human families are going to where the food is! They must stop procreating new humans looking for nonexistant jobs!)

6. Find solutions for Global Warming, Automotive pollution, International Trade, factory pollution, and the whole blasted human economy. Find ways so that people don’t build more housing pollution which destroys the environment to make way for more human filth! Find solutions so that people stop breeding as well as stopping using Oil in order to REVERSE Global warming and the destruction of the planet!

7. Develop shows that mention the Malthusian sciences about how food production leads to the overpopulation of the Human race. Talk about Evolution. Talk about Malthus and Darwin until it sinks into the stupid people’s brains until they get it!!

8. Saving the Planet means saving what’s left of the non-human Wildlife by decreasing the Human population. That means stopping the human race from breeding any more disgusting human babies! You’re the media, you can reach enough people. It’s your resposibility because you reach so many minds!!!

9. Develop shows that will correct and dismantle the dangerous US world economy. Find solutions for their disasterous Ponzi-Casino economy before they take the world to another nuclear war.

10. Stop all shows glorifying human birthing on all your channels and on TLC. Stop Future Weapons shows or replace the dialogue condemning the people behind these developments so that the shows become exposes rather than advertisements of Arms sales and development!

11. You’re also going to find solutions for unemployment and housing. All these unemployed people makes me think the US is headed toward more war.

Humans are the most destructive, filthy, pollutive creatures around and are wrecking what’s left of the planet with their false morals and breeding culture.

For every human born, ACRES of wildlife forests must be turned into farmland in order to feed that new addition over the course of 60 to 100 YEARS of that new human’s lifespan! THIS IS AT THE EXPENSE OF THE FOREST CREATURES!!!! All human procreation and farming must cease!

It is the responsiblity of everyone to preserve the planet they live on by not breeding any more children who will continue their filthy practices. Children represent FUTURE catastrophic pollution whereas their parents are current pollution. NO MORE BABIES! Population growth is a real crisis. Even one child born in the US will use 30 to a thousand times more resources than a Third World child. It’s like a couple are having 30 babies even though it’s just one! If the US goes in this direction maybe other countries will too!

Also, war must be halted. Not because it’s morally wrong, but because of the catastrophic environmental damage modern weapons cause to other creatures. FIND SOLUTIONS JUST LIKE THE BOOK SAYS! Humans are supposed to be inventive. INVENT, DAMN YOU!!

The world needs TV shows that DEVELOP solutions to the problems that humans are causing, not stupify the people into destroying the world. Not encouraging them to breed more environmentally harmful humans.

Saving the environment and the remaning species diversity of the planet is now your mindset. Nothing is more important than saving them. The Lions, Tigers, Giraffes, Elephants, Froggies, Turtles, Apes, Raccoons, Beetles, Ants, Sharks, Bears, and, of course, the Squirrels.

The humans? The planet does not need humans.

You MUST KNOW the human population is behind all the pollution and problems in the world, and YET you encourage the exact opposite instead of discouraging human growth and procreation. Surely you MUST ALREADY KNOW this!

I want Discovery Communications to broadcast on their channels to the world their new program lineup and I want proof they are doing so. I want the new shows started by asking the public for inventive solution ideas to save the planet and the remaining wildlife on it.

These are the demands and sayings of Lee.

This is indeed unfortunate. The man is clearly delusional, irriational, and has clear conviction in his beliefs. What makes matters worse is how he views humans – as filth, parasites, etc. It’s those kind of views that makes me believe that he could be more inclined to kill people if he doesn’t get what he wants.
And I do hope that this self-serving gloating that some users decided to apply here is kept to a minimum. This is an unhinged mind at work here, not a cause of warmist agenda. Instead, let’s just hope everyone comes out of this unhurt, and the man in question gets the help he needs.

There have been too many “call-to-action” comments by warmists in the media, having no rational arguments within them. This is the result. The irationality involved with this guy is mind boggeling. Yet it is what the warmists have been calling for for years. This is a truely disturbing developement, I hope the warmists can recognise their own words in this mans actions.

Seems he has just been shot.
He advocated diminishing the human population. Ironically, in his own little way, he got a small part of his wish.
What a waste.

Mr. James J. Lee today successfully reduced the filthy human presence on Earth by exactly one filthy human (with a little assistance from the SWAT team).

Apparently Lee has been shot dead.

Apparently, they have a dead man in custody. Sad and senseless.

I’m very saddened to see a human lose their humanity (the mind) in such a disturbing way.
I disagree vehemently with what he’s spouting. Manic depressive comes to mind, but I’m sure that the professionals who carefully watch him have different terms. He was under care before this episode, wasn’t he?

For some chuckles, check the headline at Think Progress:
Purported Eco-Terrorist Angered Over ‘Immigration Pollution And Anchor Baby Filth’ . Just another angry white Asian midwestern Canadian tea-bagger hippie.
If I rolled my eyes any harder I’d sprain them. The narrative must be screaming and writhing in agony right now…
Okay ERS…what’s the shot at Canada (the home of McIntyre and McKitrick) for? You had me looking to see if Mr Lee was in fact from Canada.

I know he isn’t the only guy to thnink so, and I’d like to ask to these kind of people:
if you eliminate humans, who can save those animals ? The horses, perhaps, or the cats ?
They don’t look able to do it. Only humans can save othe animals.
In my opinion.

James Sexton

I hope we can all remember, this man, who obviously lost his mind, at least had a mother and a father. We don’t know if they are still alive, and we don’t know if he has brothers or sisters or a wife or children. And we don’t know if any read this site or not. I’m as caustic and sarcastic as the next, but I’ll try to temper my more instinctive reaction in sensitivity to potential loved ones.
Peace

James Sexton–
I read a report that had a statement from Lee’s brother-in-law, who said Lee would show erratic behavior quite often. But to have someone in the family go this far off the hook is certainly tragic.

Yep, exactly as I predicted they spun the anchor baby bit into saying he is a right winger. The comments show just how brainwashed their readers are too.

So much for the image of the peaceful, granola-noshing, eco-hippie, with flowers in his hair. Pardon my bluntness, but it should be obvious by now that 21st Century Environmentalism has precious little to do with national forests, national parks, wilderness areas, clean water, and saving the Giant Panda. This movement has an underbelly that draws inspiration from the Khmer Rouge, and the MSM doesn’t have the backbone to call them on it. But that may change after Mr Lee’s act of terrorism.

September 1, 2010 3:12 pm

Obviously this guy was more a mentally unhinged nut job than an “environmentalist”. The eco-babble was just the window dressing wrapped around some serious psychosis. Still, I find it ironic that the Discovery Channel was chosen as his target. Discovery/TLC (and the History Channel too, for that matter) have been shameless promoters of radical environmental drivel. Oh well…it appears this guy got “the help he needed” in the form of police bullets to help him self-actualize his Malthusian dream.

Apparently Lee has been shot and taken into custody . Also , thanks to whoever posted the link to Think Progress – the comments really made me shudder .
_____________________________________________________
Interesting how the commentors are blaming the rightwingers for this guy Lee’s problems and when someone actually quotes lee to show they are incorrect his comments get “voted down” and hidden. It is amazing to see such total disregard for the truth in something so simple.
