OK, not really. The only thing needed to explain liberal violence is liberal doctrine. They do not need any other excuses. But, here is one they can use
A new research has shown that as the earth’s average temperature rises, so does human “heat” in the form of violent tendencies, which links global warming with increased violence in human beings.
Using US government data on average yearly temperatures and the number of violent crimes between 1950 and 2008, the researchers estimate that if the annual average temperature in the US increases by 4.4 degree Celsius, the yearly murder and assault rate will increase by 34 per 100,000 people – or 100,000 more per year in a population of 305 million.
While the global warming science has recently come under fire, the main premise behind the Iowa State researchers’ research paper is irrefutable.
“It is very well researched and what I call the ‘heat hypothesis’,” Anderson said.
“When people get hot, they behave more aggressively. There’s nothing new there and we’re all finding the same thing. But of the three ways that global warming is going to increase aggression and violence, that’s probably the one that’s going to have the most direct impact – even on developed, wealthy countries, because they have warm regions too,” he added.
Science! Oh, wait, weren’t there a few wars while the global temps were down? WWI, WWII, Korea, and Vietnam all occurred during a downturn. The Revolutionary War, the Civil War, the Scottish Rebellion, Eighty Years’ War, Thirty Years’ War, sheesh, I can’t list all the wars that occurred during a portion of the Little Ice Age. Wars occur. Violence occurs. It is survival of the fittest. I guess climate alarmists do not actually believe in Darwin.
