Socshevik? Really? Is that even a word in English BillyRussia? You really are one of Putin’s Puppies aren’t you!
A pox on you, on the troll farm you work out of, and on all the low brow idiots who are susceptible to Russian social engineering. A pox on everybody who thinks that burning fossil fuel recklessly, thoughtlessly, and wantonly is anything but an idiot’s game.
Have a nice evening in St. Petersburg.

Children have become a operational tool for Socshevik
policies and dogma.

Yes, grown men sending children into battle, is a
sure sign that the “war” is an the verge of being
lost.

Danger Will Robinson, danger.!

Meanwhile Oakland’s lawsuit against fossil fuel companies was dismissed.

Current generations have the burden of living in an America where the powers that be have blinded themselves to the long range issues of related to radical erratic weather, whether natural or man made, and are putting the entire future of the United States at risk just from that. Current generations with science training and/or access to the internet can clearly see that the evidence for there being dangerous problems with climate change is overwhelming. And yet, the US executive branch is acting as if science is irrelevant, and the only thing that matters in its decisions on climate is that people Russian petro-oligarchs and West Virginia coal barons have a safe market for their planet fucking wares.

I hope that these kids can keep their case going in the courts until the science and humanity crowd boots the cruelty and stupidity dopes out of office.

Here is the text of the order:

The application for stay presented to Justice Kennedy and
by him referred to the Court is denied.
The Government’s request for relief is premature and is
denied without prejudice. The breadth of respondents’ claims is
striking, however, and the justiciability of those claims
presents substantial grounds for difference of opinion. The
District Court should take these concerns into account in
assessing the burdens of discovery and trial, as well as the
desirability of a prompt ruling on the Government’s pending
dispositive motions.

This case does not present a case or controversy for which the courts are the proper forum for a decision. It is a political question best decided by the Congress.

It should be dismissed.

I hope the case is dismissed when the lower court takes it up again.

But we will have to wait to see what happens.
