“Open forums?”

 Carmel Pine Cone—July 5, 2024

Should Carmel and other Peninsula cities and Monterey County hold open forums addressing the Great Lockdown Swindle? It’s important that such imposed unconstitutional regulations — the mandating of masks, mandating experimental shots, the closing of businesses, churches and should never the mandating of masks, mandating experimental shots, closures of businesses, churches, and beaches — should never be repeated. This discussion should also apply to non-science regulations related to anthropogenic global warming theory.

Regarding the latter, there exists no empirical data supporting the theory that our current Modern Warm Period is human-caused. I dare The Pine Cone or Carmel City officials to offer such direct causal data. They do not exist. Any current or future related regulations, as with COVID lockdowns, should be based on solid science and constitutional law.

Our current interglacial phase of our ongoing Quaternary Ice Age — when glaciers melt — has lasted for roughly 10,000 years. Our current Modern Warm Period is believed to be milder than the Medieval, Roman, and Minoan warm periods, all “golden ages” of civilization.

It’s time for an open discussion to address the non-science Covid lockdowns and potential future global warming regulations. We must prevent governmental abuse of our constitutional rights. Never again should governments repeat the “Great Lockdown Swindle” or impose non-science global warming regulations.
