        So the state is paying $35,000 per year x20 to incarcerate a guy who stole $5000.00 worth of TVs?

        But if you're from an affluent family, you get a slap on the wrist for running down and killing four people while driving under the influence and blame it on affluenza.

        So let’s see. A non violent crime of $5k costs Texas’ tax payers $17.5k per year or $350k for the term. Wouldn’t $10k fine + 2k hours community service make more sense? Don’t brag about a dumb counterproductive sentence.

        Great. You’re sooo tough on crime. But seriously, 20 years for $5K? @EPAScottPruitt has stolen far more money and is still employed! How much money we tax payers have to pay to incarcerate this guy for 20 YEARS? So tired of this.

        Don’t you read? He was already on parole presumably for a serious crime that would hint at the 20 year sentence.

        Good. Stealing is bad enough. Looting puts it on a whole other level of immoral.

        A few things here: 1. I assume you’re refering to anthropogenic climate change, which is merely hypothesized. 2. Meteorological studies concluded a warmer climate will lead to milder hurricanes, due to small temperature differentials. 3. Ad hominem attacks are not productive.

        Your intellectual prowess has influenced my perception on the matter. Thank you for your contribution to this discussion. When will you be hosting your next seminar on the topic?

        I’m sorry, but I wasn’t aiming for intellectual prowess dickhead. Also, I didn’t exactly see you put footnotes or cite scientific publications with your argument.

        Do you actually want scientific evidence, or are you just passing time by belittling those who have beliefs outside your echo chamber? I am happy to carry on a discussion if you are actually interested in the topic.
