First they told us that Arctic ice volume had collapsed. Then they told us that the remaining multi-year ice had cracked and “failed.” Then they told us that an unprecedented hole had opened up in the Arctic ice, and that it would all be gone this summer. Then they told us that Arctic ice was in “freefall.”
Do these people ever get tired of being complete morons?
Romm says that Arctic ice volume has collapsed, while Neven is upset that Arctic ice volume is increasing.

this year is now well above those two lowest volume years (by 1729 and 1720 km3 respectively) and even slightly above 2010 (126 km3).
Some might say I emphasize this now because as an alarmist I’m not pleased with the results

A 6-year-old girl remained in critical condition Saturday after she was seriously wounded in a shooting Friday night while at a vigil with her family in the Roseland neighborhood.
Police sources told NBC Chicago Saturday a person of interest is in custody in connection with the shooting.
It happened at about 7:40 p.m. in the 300 block of West 105th Street, according to Fire Media Affairs.
Quianna Tompkins and at least 40 others were at the home for a memorial for 24-year-old Brandon “Bones” Snipe, who was killed five years ago, when gunfire erupted.
“She ran from the sidewalk up to the grass and she collapsed,” said Vanessa Ross. “She just laid there.”

“If Trayvon Martin was of age and was armed, could he have stood his ground on that sidewalk?”
– Barack Obama July 19, 2013
They actually act that scenario out in Chicago several times a day, and it usually doesn’t work out too well.
I’m not convinced it is a good idea to give guns to stoned 17 year old boys who have been suspended from school for drugs and robbery. But then Obama sends guns to Mexican drug lords and Islamic terrorists, so he apparently has a different viewpoint.
On the other hand, suppose that Trayvon was a responsible adult with a pistol who just happened to be lurking around the neighborhood stoned at 2:30 am in pouring rain after purchasing Skittles. If he was armed, perhaps he wouldn’t have felt the need to repeatedly bash Zimmerman’s head against the sidewalk? Perhaps Obama has a point?
Obama is convinced that the climate is falling apart, even though he was sure he fixed it in 2008.

Now they are faced with open sea, wind and ice. No more dragging the boat.
They should change their motto from “rowing against climate change” to “slogging against rational thought processes.”
