Climate Hoax Scientists Freak Out Over Schoolyard Taunts

These are all personal attacks! It’s awful! You freaking deniers, who should be locked up and hung, are just big meanies!

Several Australian climate scientists have released email extracts that demonstrate the vitriol that fills their inboxes daily, saying the number of abusive emails has increased since the carbon tax was proposed.

Climate scientists from the Australian National University, the University of Queensland, the University of NSW and the University of Melbourne have reportedly received emailed death threats, threats of sexual assault and threats of attacks on family members from critics opposed to their findings.

Really? Can we see them?

Now several of the abusive emails have been published on a blog by environmental writer Graham Readfearn, after the scientists agreed to release the poison pen letters.

Oh, goody.

Most are little more than swearing and insults,

Bummer.

but several correspondents had a more chilling message for the scientists.

Chilling

“Just do your science or you will end up collateral damage in the war, GET IT,” reads one email.

“If we see you continue, we will get extremely organised and precise against you,” reads another.

That’s it, folks. That’s the best the alarmists can offer as proof of “death threats.” Except, for that second one, let’s check the full text

If we see you continue, we will get extremely organised and precise against you. We will not do so if you rightfully argue against our points from a science view. But we will if you choose to stray into attacks on us as people or as a movement. The institution and funders that support you will find the attention concerning.

So, not a personal threat, just one to go after funding.

Jo Nova: To a climate scientist, *swearing* equals a Death Threat (no wonder these guys can’t predict the weather)

And Tom Nelson asks

  • Do these scientists notify the Australian Federal Police every time they get the finger for cutting someone off in traffic?
  • Do they demand to be rushed to a secure location every time they hear that “monster” making a tapping sound in the basement?
  • No wonder these people think every weather fluctuation is a harbinger of global doom…

Personally, I’m not sure why so many “deniers” are upset at scientists who push junk science which could result in heavy taxation, reduced prosperity, more government control over their lives, all so that these scientists can get more government research funding.
