NY Times Cartoon Suggests 'Climate-Change Deniers' Should Be Stabbed to Death
newbusters.org ^ | 2/23/2014 | Jack Coleman

Editorial cartoons often aren't pretty, to paraphrase Steve Martin's observation about the perils of comedy. But one found in the Opinion section of today's New York Times is downright ugly.

The cartoon, alluding to this year's brutal winter, suggests U.S. Department of Commerce "Strategies for Dealing With the 2014 Icicle Surplus." Among them are using icicles as "locally sourced hydration devices," "temporary doorsteps," and "brainteasers for dogs." Then comes a suggestion that one immediately looks at again, in disgust and disbelief -- icicles can also be used as "self-destructing sabers for dispatching climate-change deniers." (Entire cartoon shown after the jump)

As far as cartoonists at the New York Times are concerned, if you are skeptical about climate change, you should die. Preferably in a violent manner. Turns out the Gray Lady's got a mean streak. But you already knew that.

Suggestion hell. It plainly shows some cross dressing climate change nazi stabbing a "denier" in the chest. That hardly classifies as a "suggestion" for possible uses to me. Smacks of GWN's methodology for shutting up climate change deniers. If you're just a skeptic you may be okay as long as you SDSU. Where's the outrage from mares against illegal ice-cicles?

Just like a climate change fanatic - bringing a knife to a gunfight.

They’d see us in camps tomorrow if they could do it without being condemned.

Bring it.

Sooner or later, something has to start CW-II.

My guillotine is ready...for libtards, progressives and other similar cretin-like humanoids.

In the Fascist America, anything goes as long as it supports the NWO agenda. This is a non-issue; back to the sports page like a good serf...

I thought it was more a satire against the warmists, not the deniers.

In this film people are blown up for not actively supporting the agendas of Global Warming activists.

If you don’t agree we’ll kill you seems to be a common thread among the radical left.

Serf’s up! Maybe a new meaning to the phrase?

Every one of these people, these liberal/progressive, whatever they are types, need an old fashioned ass kicking. I’m not talking about a debate, on a show, where the facts get in the way and they lose the debate. I’m talking about an old fashioned, in the alley, behind the bar, a$$ whooping. These are the kids that were never told NO. These are the kids that got trophies for showing up.

They are all the loudmouths in the bar. The one that everyone wants to beat the hell out of, but no one wants to take that ride in the backseat of the patrol car after its done. However, at some point the rest of the bar patrons and the bar owner get sick of hearing it. The loudmouth gets his a$$ kicked and no one saw nothing.

Plus, this is a womyn stabbing a while man. If genders were reversed, the feminazi’s would be crying like the infantile spoiled brats they are.

But stabbing a white male is a-ok.

Had it been the PeoplesCube or the Onion, maybe. From the nyslimes, they probably mean it to “look” like satire but deep down inside, they’d like to silence the knaves.

I’m sue the NYTs will be roundly condemned for advocating such violence.
Now if there was only a way to shoot ice bullets...

Hmmmm. Don’t see any “african-Americans” in the cartoon. Is this micro-agression or just plain ole racism on behalf of the nyslimes.

I thought that at first, but then I recall all the stories about how lots of snow and ice are the result of GW.
Sadly, with each passing day it’s getting more and more difficult to distinguish satire and real life.

I have finally realized why so many of the general “non-technical” population are supporting global warming — it has little to do with some complex theory that they don’t understand.

From their perspective, it has to do with something that humanity in general can rally around — saving the planet and ultimately ourselves.

And if you dissagree than you are against something akin to world peace.

Also, most people don’t want to be bothered with the complexities of the theory. It is too complex. So they beleive in it without question.

Frankly I did too. It paints them as the brain dead morons they are, that WOULD stab someone with an icicle if they could.
