Former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger said Sunday he is going to sue big oil companies for “first degree murder.”

During a live recording of a Politico podcast, Schwarzenegger said he was talking to several private law firms about taking on oil companies in court.

The Hollywood actor compared oil to the tobacco industry, and said both are “knowingly killing people all over the world.” Schwarzenegger said the tobacco industry had to pay millions of dollars in court for hiding the fact that tobacco had adverse side effects, and said he hopes oil companies will have to do the same.

“The oil companies knew from 1959 on, they did their own study that there would be global warming happening because of fossil fuels, and on top of it that it would be risky for people’s lives, that it would kill,” Schwarzenegger said Sunday.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

All true. It's just more virtue signaling from California. Global warming hysteria. I think it is more funny than it is a serious proposal. Like you said, if you are going to sue every company which makes something that could possibly harm you, then auto makers, cell phone companies, knife manufacturers, and every other company in the country would have to be sued. A lamp can electrocute you. A drinking glass can break and cut someone. And on and on and on.

This steriods penetrated the brain and are sending our very weird thoughts.
