Arnold Schwarzenegger told Politico at South by Southwest on Sunday that he is going to sue oil companies “for knowingly killing people all over the world," comparing oil companies to the tobacco industry that knew smoking could kill people, but for years denied what they knew.
Key quote: He said that since 1959 oil companies knew fossil fuels caused global warming, "I don’t think there’s any difference: If you walk into a room and you know you’re going to kill someone, it’s first degree murder; I think it’s the same thing with the oil companies.”
Put up or shut up, Arnold. Convert your life to one where you use absolutely no man-made energy nor products derived from it, and you produce no harmful waste whatsoever, not even a campfire. Anything less, and you're knowingly killing people.
He just woke up and discovered that his name has not been in the MSM for quite a while.
Maybe he is angling for another movie role?

Arnold Schwarzenegger is a leftist moron. I never considered the man remotely intelligent. He was never a conservative, even more of a RINO than John McCain. The asshole signed major pieces of gun legislation in CA while Governor; one for banning the sale of .50cal firearms, and passing the microstamping law, which has essentially given teeth to the handgun roster, systematically banning the sale of most late model handguns in CA. No more Colt 1911s, no 4-5th Gen Glocks, many Sigs, HKs, etc.
I did not vote for him at the time because I thought he was as dumb as a head of cabbage. Hell, Gary Coleman, who also ran in that clusterfuck election, would have made a more effective Governor. The only thing he did right was acting as a Terminator. That's it.

There's a thought. Eco-warrior saves the countryside from the greedy oil tycoon. Oh wait, already been done. `Course, that wouldn't keep them from doing it again.
