A seven-month old baby girl survived a shot to the chest after her parents shot themselves and their two-year-old in a global warming murder-suicide pact.
This is the last public photo of Francisco Lotero before he shot himself, his wife and two-year-old son in response to fears about global warming. (El Litoral)
The New York Post reported:
A seven-month-old girl miraculously survived alone for three days after one of her parents shot her in the chest – apparently as part of a bizarre murder-suicide pact blamed on global warming.
The baby was discovered with a bullet casing in her chest and covered with blood by police in the Argentinean city of Goya, near the bodies of her parents and 2-year-old brother, the Latin American Herald reported Saturday.
Police broke into the home after neighbors complained of a stench coming from the house. The boy was found with a gunshot wound in his back, while his parents died from gunshot wounds to the chest.
The parents, 56-year-old Francisco Lotero and 23-year-old Miriam Coletti, are believed to have been spurred by their fears about global climate change, London’s Telegraph reported.
A letter was found on a table expressing the couple’s anger at the government for not responding to the environmental crisis.
Doctors said the baby’s condition has been improving every day, the Herald Tribune reported.
Someone should sue Al Gore. He played on their fears and now a whole family is dead.

Thanks, Al Gore, for creating a non-existent hysteria across the world!
Obviously, these people were unstable to begin with, but the loony global warming freaks gave them a push over the edge.
I hope the baby recovers.
Sick freaks.

Someone does need to sue Al Gore. I realize the hoax was intended to enrich al and friends and deliver unlimited power but stories like this are proof that they went way too far for purely selfish reasons.
March 1st, 2010 | 11:05 am | #3
Perhaps an appropriate response to this tragedy would to issue an arrest warrant for Al Gore and prosecute him for inciting social unrest resulting in death.
March 1st, 2010 | 11:07 am | #4
See this is what happens when people trade in worship of the Creator for created things. Someone tell me what difference this act was to the sacrifices of children to Baal back in the OT days. There is none.
Now most people aren’t like this. But to hear the rhetoric coming out of peoples’ mouths about “reducing” the human population, we already see what kinds of damage a cult can do.
March 1st, 2010 | 11:22 am | #5
“Someone needs to sue Al Gore.”
My thoughts EXACTLY! And, if there’s a human being with something above a 40 IQ left in that family, they should file ASAP.
March 1st, 2010 | 11:25 am | #6
At least sue East Anglia. And Phil Jones. It can be shown that they used information in an unscientific manner. Had they reported the information correctly, these nuts may not have come to this sad conclusion, you know, seeing how these people are much smarter than the rest of us.
Oh yeah, and the IPCC.
To kill a baby for this, my God.

Shooting your child because you believe the world is getting warmer?
What did they rely on as proof that the planet was dying. And why would the planet being warmer require them to shoot themselves?
March 1st, 2010 | 11:58 am | #14
It it the logical result of raising people to believe their destorying the planet. If someone wants to file a lawsuit on this, be sure to get online donations going, I can chip in.

Just wait and see. The Obama media and AGW hysterians, to the extent that they have any response at all, will blame this, not on AGW hysteria, but on AGW itself. It will be all the more reason why we should do something to stop AGW NOW, to prevent more such tragedies.

What a load of crap. This is as bad as the efforts to blame the Tea Party movement for the nutty IRS murder-suicide of Joe Stack. Sometimes a nut is just a nut, and trying to score political points off this sort of thing is just vile. If this guy had never heard of Global Warming, he’d have probably been set off by something else. He’s just a plain old evil-minded loon. Please leave it at that.

I think Al Gore and all the global warming cultists should be tried in a court, convicted and sentenced to picking up litter along the interstate highways for the next 20 years.
And all the other lazy scoundrels living on the government dole ought to be holding the sacks for them, or else mowing the yards at the government housing projects, or doing something to earn all the free money and food they are getting. I believe the very fact that these people would have to work for what they receive would clear the roles of most of the freeloaders. And if they were unable to work outside, then they would have to babysit while the others did. Or clean the toilets.

From all the comments here blaming Gore for the acts of two seriously non-functioning parents, I can only conclude that the posters are similarly afflicted with pudding brain symptom. How can any post-grammar school rational being believe that this is anything but a very sad story about this family, and no-one else?
I guess it does tend to explain why Bush did get selected and was thought to be actually worthy of being president. Go figure.
March 1st, 2010 | 6:56 pm | #36
al – Gore is Islamic for ‘scare people silly.’ His scare tactics are horrendous, and he should be put on a terrorist watch-list.
March 1st, 2010 | 7:18 pm | #37
That baby should grow up and sue Jim Hoft. This site’s using of that baby’s story encourages people to use their computers, which uses up valuable electricity and causes pollution, which makes fumes that make people do crazy things like the parents of the baby did to the baby. If there were no computers there would be no Al Gore, so this site is to blame. If the baby takes donations to his legal fund all the commenters here will contribute because they believe in freedom.
March 1st, 2010 | 7:48 pm | #38
I blame the mainstream media over this one. They probably never got the word that the books where “cooked” on global warming, because of the MSM lopsided reporting.
They killed themselves for no reason. Even if there was “global warming” it wouldn’t have proved fatal during there lifetimes.
They at least help Al Gore by reducing the carbon footprint, but they shouldn’t have shot the children, theres no excuse for that.

Meh.
25 years ago there was the kid who shot himself because his parents wouldn’t let him watch Dukes of Hazzard.
Dumb people do dumb things. If the survivors of this family can sue Al Gore for “making” them do a dumb thing, shouldn’t there be a huge class-action suit filed by Bush voters? I mean, he told them that the tax cuts he passed wouldn’t create deficits, he told them the war in Iraq would pay for itself, etc etc etc. They were dumb enough to believe him without examining the veracity of his claims – he “made” them vote for him and support him in every stupid thing he did.
Let’s get this ball rolling!

Actually, I hope that all global warming cultists at least consider the brave actions of this 56-year-old man and his 23-year-old babymama to reduce their carbon footprints. To shoot the kids is over the top, but come on — coming from those parents, what kind of chance did they have, anyway?
Sometimes, the gene pool needs a bit of chlorine…

What a really sad story. Chesterton’s comment (When people stop believing in Something, they’ll fall for anything) comes to mind here.
It’s telling that the little boy was shot in the back. They killed him as he was probably running away.
May God have mercy on their souls, and I pray that they didn’t have the state of mind capable of understanding fully their actions.

I guess we’ll be charging Glen Beck and Rush Limbaugh with the murder of the IRS employee Vernon Hunter and destruction of government property. What’s more American than guilt-by-association?
March 2nd, 2010 | 12:50 pm | #57
So, since Gore said that there was a problem, and he’s responsible for these people killing themselves, then Beck and O’Rielly and Hannity and Limbaugh should be responsible for getting Tiller killed, shouldn’t they? I’m just trying to follow your fractured logic, here. The scariest thing, for me, is that I seem to be able to do it.

All O’reilly did was report the story, he didn’t exaggerate or outright lie like Gore does.
The person who offed Tiller did so based on truth.
This murder/suicide is based on quackery.
Gore is a quack.
March 2nd, 2010 | 6:25 pm | #60
-Mr GJG:
I wonder who Bill O’Righty was quoting and reporting on when he used “Tiller the baby killer”; or was he adding his opinion to the mix?
The only truth of Scott Roeder, the Tiller murderer, was that he did shoot and kill him (admitted to in court).
In your opinion Gore is a quack; IMO, you are not rational. I don’t believe there is anything that could be said or found that would cause you to reconsider your opinion. Too bad.
