John Kerry Hates Free Speech

In a speech delivered November 10 at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia, Secretary of State John Kerry (shown) appeared to be intentionally amping up the already incendiary rhetoric aimed at those scientists and citizens who express doubt or skepticism about — or opposition to — the wild, apocalyptic claims of the climate-change choir. “The science tells us unequivocally, those who continue to make climate change a political fight put us all at risk,” Kerry said. “And we cannot sit idly by and allow them to do that.”

Dear John: You don't have to sit idly by, but you should not silence dissenters either. That's the sort of thing ISIL does.

In the so-called free market of ideas, truth can speak for itself and lies seldom win. It is only when lies are backed by force (such as the sort you are suggesting) that lies can defeat truth.

Let them dissent. If climate change is valid, both the scientific community and We The People eventually will recognize it to be so.

By the way, tell Cass Sunstein to shut up.
