Gore Equates ‘Climate Deniers’ with Uvalde Law Enforcement

Sunday on NBC’s Meet the Press, stupendously wealthy climate Cassandra and former Vice President Al Gore equated those he smeared as “climate deniers” to the timid, unresponsive police officers in the Uvalde, Texas, school shooting tragedy.

“Climate deniers are really in some ways similar to all of those almost 400 law enforcement officers in Uvalde, Texas, who were waiting outside an unlocked door while the children were being massacred,” Gore stated. “They heard the screams, they heard the gunshots and nobody stepped forward.”

In addition to this false analogy that insults the memory of the murdered children in Uvalde and their grieving families, Gore’s comparison of climate change critics to Holocaust deniers is grotesque and propagandistic.

Gore, who owns a $9 million ocean-view villa in California and who uses enough electricity for six average homes just to heat the outdoor swimming pool at his Nashville residence, regularly takes private jets around the world to lecture those “climate-denying” peasants about reducing their carbon footprint.

On January 24, 2006, Gore’s environmentalist film An Inconvenient Truth was released at the Sundance Film Festival. This high-profile production catapulted the subject of anthropogenic (man-caused) global warming to center stage in America’s national consciousness, and went on to receive an Academy Award for “Best Documentary” in 2007. In October 2007, Gore won the Nobel Peace Prize for “his strong commitment, reflected in political activity, lectures, films and books,” to “strengthen[ing] the struggle against climate change.” He shared the award with the United Nations‘ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.

Gore received immense publicity and wealth as a result of his film, and he became the nation’s most renowned exponent of the theory of man-caused global warming. Notably, however, Gore has repeatedly refused to debate scientists and other well-informed people with opposing views about global warming. Moreover, he has routinely denounced and mocked such individuals. In March 2008, for example, he told the CBS program 60 Minutes: “I think that those people are in such a tiny, tiny minority now with their point of view. They’re almost like the ones who still believe that the moon landing was staged in a movie lot in Arizona and those who believe the earth is flat. That demeans them a little bit, but it’s not that far off.”
